qwen2vl-omr-lora-v2

LoRA adapter on top of Qwen/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct for reading handwritten fields from Indian university OMR answer sheets (Part-D: registration number, roll number, course code).

This is v2, a continued fine-tune of an earlier adapter on a larger, human-corrected labeling pass. v2 is trained on 1152 unique sheets (3414 (image, label) rows after sheet-wise 80/20 split) drawn from a 1500-sheet labeling batch; the held-out 288 sheets / 859 rows are reserved for evaluation.

Training

base modelQwen/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct
methodLoRA (r=16, α=32, dropout=0.05) on q_proj,k_proj,v_proj,o_proj
starting weightscontinued from prior adapter (v1) — not from scratch
dataset1500 OMR sheets × 3 fields, human-corrected via Django labeling tool
split80/20 by sheet (no leakage) → 3414 train / 859 eval rows
epochs3
batch size1 (per-device) × 8 grad-accum = effective 8
learning rate5e-5 (lower than v1 since starting from a trained adapter)

Inference

python
from peft import PeftModel
from transformers import AutoProcessor, Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration
from PIL import Image
import torch

BASE = "Qwen/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct"
ADAPTER = "kshitizjangra/qwen2vl-omr-lora-v2"

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(BASE, trust_remote_code=True)
base = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(BASE, dtype=torch.float16, trust_remote_code=True)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base, ADAPTER).to("mps").eval()

img = Image.open("path/to/roll_no.jpg").convert("RGB")
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": [
    {"type": "image", "image": img},
    {"type": "text",  "text": "Read the handwritten value. Output only the value."},
]}]
text = processor.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
inputs = processor(text=[text], images=[[img]], return_tensors="pt").to("mps")
with torch.no_grad():
    out = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=64, do_sample=False)
print(processor.tokenizer.decode(out[0][inputs.input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))

Intended use

Internal tool for digitizing university OMR sheets at a fixed template (Part-D). The model expects a single section crop (registrationno / rollno / course_code) and returns the handwritten value as a string.

Limitations

  • —Trained only on this specific Part-D template; will not generalize to arbitrary forms.
  • —Some labeler errors are present in the training data (e.g. occasional field mix-ups where a roll number was entered in the registration field).
  • —Eval accuracy not yet measured against the 859-row held-out split.
