BrightRate-LM 7B multi-exposure adapters

This PEFT adapter is one result from the BrightRate-LM controlled input and scaling study.

Base model

Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct

Input interface

Eight uniformly sampled frames are each rendered at -2, 0, and +2 stops. The 24 images are passed in temporal-major order.

Training data and recipe

Five adapters were trained independently on the five content-separated BrightVQ splits. Training uses two epochs, a three-epoch cosine schedule horizon, learning rate 1e-4, micro-batch 1, gradient accumulation 8, and rank-16 LoRA with alpha 32 and dropout 0.05. MOS targets are interpolated across five quality words. The root adapter is split 0; splits/split-1 through split-4 contain the remaining adapters.

Training data: BrightVQ.

Intended use

This adapter is intended for research on no-reference perceptual quality assessment of user-generated HDR video. Scores are not calibrated for other datasets, display pipelines, or video domains.

Code and input construction are available in BrightRate-LM.
