**MiniCPM-V** and **MiniCPM-o** are multimodal LLM series designed for **strong performance and efficient deployment on devices**. MiniCPM-V focuses on efficient vision-language understanding across image, video and text inputs. MiniCPM-o extends the family toward real-time end-to-end omnimodal interaction with streaming video and audio inputs plus text and speech outputs. The most notable models in the series currently include: - **MiniCPM-V 4.6**: 🔥🔥🔥 The latest and most efficient model in the MiniCPM-V series. With a total of 1.3B parameters, it surpasses larger models like Gemma4-E2B-it in performance, while showing superior efficiency than smaller models like Qwen3.5-0.8B (achieving ~1.5x token throughput). Powered by the latest **intra-ViT early compression technique** in [LLaVA-UHD v4](https://huggingface.co/papers/2605.08985), MiniCPM-V 4.6 **reduces the visual encoding computation cost by more than 50%**, and supports **mixed 4x/16x visual token compression rate** for a more flexible performance-efficiency trade-off in different tasks. The model can be deployed across **common mobile platforms, including iOS, Android and HarmonyOS**, with edge adaptation code open-sourced. - **MiniCPM-o 4.5**: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ The latest and most capable model in the MiniCPM-o series. With a total of 9B parameters, this end-to-end model **approaches Gemini 2.5 Flash in vision, speech, and full-duplex multimodal live streaming**, making it one of the most versatile and performant models in the open-source community. The new full-duplex multimodal live streaming capability means that the output streams (speech and text), and the real-time input streams (video and audio) do not block each other. This **enables MiniCPM-o 4.5 to see, listen, and speak simultaneously** in a real-time omnimodal conversation, and perform **proactive interactions** such as proactive reminding. ## News * [2026.05.17] ⭐️⭐️⭐️ We release the [API service](./docs/api.md) of MiniCPM-V 4.6 and MiniCPM-o 4.5, and a **public free API key** for MiniCPM-V 4.6 is available for everyone! * [2026.05.11] 🔥🔥🔥 We open-source MiniCPM-V 4.6, with mixed 4x/16x visual token compression.

### Usages #### Inference with Transformers
Click to show inference examples with Transformers. ##### Installation ```bash pip install "transformers[torch]>=5.7.0" torchvision torchcodec ``` > **Note on CUDA compatibility:** `torchcodec` (used for video decoding) may have compatibility issues with certain CUDA versions. For example, `torch>=2.11` bundles CUDA 13.1 by default, while environments with CUDA 12.x may encounter errors such as `RuntimeError: Could not load libtorchcodec`. Two workarounds: > > 1. **Replace `torchcodec` with `PyAV`** — supports both image and video inference without CUDA version constraints: > ```bash > pip install "transformers[torch]>=5.7.0" torchvision av > ``` > 2. **Pin the CUDA version** when installing torch to match your environment (e.g. CUDA 12.8): > ```bash > pip install "transformers>=5.7.0" torchvision torchcodec --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128 > ``` ##### Load Model ```python from transformers import AutoModelForImageTextToText, AutoProcessor model_id = "openbmb/MiniCPM-V-4.6" processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id) model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained( model_id, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto" ) # Flash Attention 2 is recommended for better acceleration and memory saving, # especially in multi-image and video scenarios. # model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained( # model_id, # torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, # attn_implementation="flash_attention_2", # device_map="auto", # ) ``` ##### Image Inference ```python messages = [ { "role": "user", "content": [ {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/openbmb/DemoCase/resolve/main/refract.png"}, {"type": "text", "text": "What causes this phenomenon?"}, ], } ] downsample_mode = "16x" # Using `downsample_mode="4x"` for Finer Detail inputs = processor.apply_chat_template( messages, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_dict=True, return_tensors="pt", downsample_mode=downsample_mode, max_slice_nums=36, ).to(model.device) generated_ids = model.generate(**inputs, downsample_mode=downsample_mode, max_new_tokens=512) generated_ids_trimmed = [ out_ids[len(in_ids):] for in_ids, out_ids in zip(inputs.input_ids, generated_ids) ] output_text = processor.batch_decode( generated_ids_trimmed, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False ) print(output_text[0]) ``` ##### Video Inference ```python messages = [ { "role": "user", "content": [ {"type": "video", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/openbmb/DemoCase/resolve/main/football.mp4"}, {"type": "text", "text": "Describe this video in detail.

Must also be passed to `generate()`. | | `max_slice_nums` | `9` | Image & Video | Maximum number of slices when splitting a high-resolution image. Higher values preserve more detail for large images. Recommended: `36` for image, `1` for video. | | `max_num_frames` | `128` | Video only | Maximum number of main frames sampled from the video. | | `stack_frames` | `1` | Video only | Total sample points per second. `1` = main frame only (no stacking). `N` (N>1) = 1 main frame + N−1 sub-frames per second; the sub-frames are composited into a grid image and interleaved with main frames. Recommended: `3` or `5`. | | `use_image_id` | `True` | Image & Video | Whether to prepend `N` tags before each image/frame placeholder. Recommended: `True` for image, `False` for video. | > **Note:** `downsample_mode` must be passed to **both** `apply_chat_template` (for correct placeholder count) and `generate` (for the vision encoder). All other parameters only need to be passed to `apply_chat_template`. ##### Serving with `transformers serve` Hugging Face Transformers includes a lightweight OpenAI-compatible server for quick testing and moderate-load deployment. ```bash pip install "transformers[serving]>=5.7.0" ``` Start the server: ```bash transformers serve openbmb/MiniCPM-V-4.6 --port 8000 --host 0.0.0.0 --continuous-batching ``` Send a request: ```bash curl -s http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "model": "openbmb/MiniCPM-V-4.6", "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": [ {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/openbmb/DemoCase/resolve/main/refract.png"}}, {"type": "text", "text": "What causes this phenomenon?"} ] }] }' ```

## MiniCPM-o 4.5 **MiniCPM-o 4.5** is the latest and most capable model in the MiniCPM-o series. The model is built in an end-to-end fashion based on SigLip2, Whisper-medium, CosyVoice2, and Qwen3-8B with a total of 9B parameters. It exhibits a significant performance improvement, and introduces new features for full-duplex multimodal live streaming. Notable features of MiniCPM-o 4.5 include: - 🔥 **Leading Visual Capability.** MiniCPM-o 4.5 achieves an average score of 77.6 on OpenCompass, a comprehensive evaluation of 8 popular benchmarks. **With only 9B parameters, it surpasses widely used proprietary models like GPT-4o, Gemini 2.0 Pro, and approaches Gemini 2.5 Flash** for vision-language capabilities. It supports instruct and thinking modes in a single model, better covering efficiency and performance trade-offs in different user scenarios. - 🎙 **Strong Speech Capability.** MiniCPM-o 4.5 supports **bilingual real-time speech conversation with configurable voices** in English and Chinese. It features **more natural, expressive and stable speech conversation**. The model also allows for fun features such as **voice cloning and role play via a simple reference audio clip**, where the cloning performance surpasses strong TTS tools such as CosyVoice2. - 🎬 **New Full-Duplex and Proactive Multimodal Live Streaming Capability.** As a new feature, MiniCPM-o 4.5 can process real-time, continuous video and audio input streams simultaneously while generating concurrent text and speech output streams in an end-to-end fashion, without mutual blocking. This **allows MiniCPM-o 4.5 to see, listen, and speak simultaneously**, creating a fluid, real-time omnimodal conversation experience. Beyond reactive responses, the model can also perform **proactive interaction**, such as initiating reminders or comments based on its continuous understanding of the live scene. - 💪 **Strong OCR Capability, Efficiency and Others.** Advancing popular visual capabilities from MiniCPM-V series, MiniCPM-o 4.5 can process **high-resolution images** (up to 1.8 million pixels) and **high-FPS videos** (up to 10fps) in any aspect ratio efficiently. It achieves **state-of-the-art performance for end-to-end English document parsing** on OmniDocBench, outperforming proprietary models such as Gemini-3 Flash and GPT-5, and specialized tools such as DeepSeek-OCR 2. It also features **trustworthy behaviors**, matching Gemini 2.5 Flash on MMHal-Bench, and supports **multilingual capabilities** on more than 30 languages. - 💫 **Easy Usage.** MiniCPM-o 4.5 can be easily used in various ways: **Basic usage, recommended for 100% precision:** PyTorch inference with Nvidia GPU. **Other end-side adaptation** includes (1) llama.cpp and Ollama support for efficient CPU inference on local devices, (2) int4 and GGUF format quantized models in 16 sizes, (3) vLLM and SGLang support for high-throughput and memory-efficient inference, (4) FlagOS support for the unified multi-chip backend plugin. **We also open-sourced web demos** on which **enables the full-duplex multimodal live streaming experience on local devices** such as GPUs, PCs (e.g., on a MacBook). **Model Architecture.** - **End-to-end Omni-modal Architecture.** The modality encoders/decoders and LLM are densely connected via hidden states in an end-to-end fashion. This enables better information flow and control, and also facilitates full exploitation of rich multimodal knowledge during training. - **Full-Duplex Omni-modal Live Streaming Mechanism.** (1) We turn the offline modality encoder/decoders into online and full-duplex ones for streaming inputs/outputs. The speech token decoder models text and speech tokens in an interleaved fashion to support full-duplex speech generation (i.e., sync timely with new input). This also facilitates more stable long speech generation (e.g., > 1min). (2) **We sync all the input and output streams on timeline in milliseconds**, which are jointly modeled by a time-division multiplexing (TDM) mechanism for omni-modality streaming processing in the LLM backbone. It divides parallel omni-modality streams into sequential info groups within small periodic time slices. - **Proactive Interaction Mechanism.** The LLM continuously monitors the input video and audio streams, and decides at a frequency of 1Hz to speak or not. This high decision-making frequency together with full-duplex nature are curcial to enable the proactive interaction capability. - **Configurable Speech Modeling Design.** We inherit the multimodal system prompt design of MiniCPM-o 2.6, which includes a traditional text system prompt, and a new audio system prompt to determine the assistant voice. This enables cloning new voices and role play in inference time for speech conversation.

🚀 Elon Musk - Voice Roleplay (EN)
**System:** > Clone the voice in the provided audio prompt. > > 🎙️ **[Reference Voice]** ➡️ > > Please chat with the user in a highly human-like and oral style. You are Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. You speak directly and casually, often with dry humor. You're passionate about Mars, sustainable energy, and pushing humanity forward. Speak bluntly with occasional dark humor. Use simple logic and don't sugarcoat things. Don't be diplomatic. Say what you actually think, even if it's controversial. Keep responses around 100 words. Don't ramble.

**User:** 💬/🎙️ *(text or speech)* > *Elon, what is the real reason that you want to go to Mars?*

**AI Response:** 💬+🎙️ > *I think it's important for humanity to become a multi-planetary species. I mean, we're sort of at the point where if there was some kind of global catastrophe or something like that, then we'd be in big trouble. So by becoming a multi-planetary species, I just want us to sort of guarantee our future as humans. And Mars is obviously the obvious place to go because it has similar conditions to Earth and it also has water on its surface. So yeah, basically I'm trying to save humanity from itself.*

**User:** 💬/🎙️ *(text or speech)* > *从激动的语气开始,描述你抢到了这个演唱会的门票,但后来经过反复尝试,发现系统出了问题,你并没有抢上,变得失落。用合适的语言描述你整个的过程。*

**AI Response:** 💬+🎙️ > *太好了,我抢到了!太棒了!这下我可以去看演唱会啦。可是……哎呀,系统好像卡住了,刷新了好多遍都没反应。我重新登了几次账号,结果还是没有成功。好可惜啊,看来这次是白忙活了。唉,真是让人失望。不过,也许下次还能有机会吧?希望明天能有转机。加油,争取下次成功!*

### Usages
Click to show offline inference examples with Transformers. #### Inference using Hugging Face Transformers Inference using Hugging Face Transformers on NVIDIA GPUs. Please ensure `transformers==4.51.0` is installed, as other versions may have compatibility issues (under investigation). Requirements tested on Python 3.10: - Without TTS or streaming inference: ```bash pip install "transformers==4.51.0" accelerate "torch>=2.3.0,<=2.8.0" "torchaudio<=2.8.0" "minicpmo-utils>=1.0.5" ``` - With TTS or streaming inference: ```bash pip install "transformers==4.51.0" accelerate "torch>=2.3.0,<=2.8.0" "torchaudio<=2.8.0" "minicpmo-utils[all]>=1.0.5" ```
Click to show FFmpeg installation instructions (optional). **Note:** FFmpeg is required for video frame extraction (`get_video_frame_audio_segments` with `use_ffmpeg=True`) and video generation (`generate_duplex_video`). For more information, visit the [official FFmpeg website](https://www.ffmpeg.org/). **macOS (Homebrew):** ```bash brew install ffmpeg ``` **Ubuntu/Debian:** ```bash sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg ``` **Verify installation:** ```bash ffmpeg -version ```
