Model Card

ChartVerse-8B is a state-of-the-art Vision Language Model (VLM) achieving top-tier performance on chart reasoning benchmarks, developed as part of the [opendatalab/ChartVerse](https://huggingface.co/collections/opendatalab/chartverse) project. For more details about our method, datasets, and full model series, please visit our Project Page.

Most notably, ChartVerse-8B surpasses its teacher model Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B-Thinking (62.9%) and approaches Qwen3-VL-32B-Thinking (67.0%), breaking the distillation ceiling and demonstrating that high-quality synthetic data can enable student models to exceed their teachers.

🔥 Highlights

—🏆 SOTA Performance: 64.1% average score across 6 challenging chart benchmarks
—📈 Surpasses Teacher: Outperforms Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B-Thinking (62.9%) with only 8B parameters
—🎯 Approaches 32B: Rivals Qwen3-VL-32B-Thinking (67.0%) performance

🚀 Quick Start

python

from transformers import Qwen3VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoProcessor
from qwen_vl_utils import process_vision_info
from PIL import Image

# 1. Load Model
model_path = "opendatalab/ChartVerse-8B"
model = Qwen3VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    model_path, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto"
)
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_path)

# 2. Prepare Input
image_path = "path/to/your/chart.png"
query = "Which region demonstrates the greatest proportional variation in annual revenue compared to its typical revenue level?"

messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "image": image_path},
            {"type": "text", "text": query},
        ],
    }
]

# 3. Inference
text = processor.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
image_inputs, video_inputs = process_vision_info(messages)
inputs = processor(
    text=[text],
    images=image_inputs,
    padding=True,
    return_tensors="pt",
).to("cuda")
generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=16384)
output_text = processor.batch_decode(
    generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False
)
print(output_text[0])
