## 🚀 How to use the model

We provide a simple installation example below:
```
pip install transformers
```
Using qwen_vl_utils in https://github.com/OpenGVLab/VideoChat-R1/blob/main/Videochat-R1.5/src_eval/my_vision_process.py

Then you could use our model:
```python
from transformers import Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration, AutoTokenizer, AutoProcessor
from qwen_vl_utils import process_vision_info

model_path = "OpenGVLab/VideoChat-R1_5"
# default: Load the model on the available device(s)
model = Qwen2_5_VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    model_path, torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto",
    attn_implementation="flash_attention_2"
)

# default processer
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_path)

video_path = "your_video.mp4"
question = "your_qa.mp4"
num_percptions = 3

QA_THINK_GLUE = """Answer the question: "[QUESTION]" according to the content of the video. 

Output your think process within the  <think> </think> tags.

Then, provide your answer within the <answer> </answer> tags, output the corresponding letter of the option. At the same time, in the <glue> </glue> tags, present the precise time period in seconds of the video clips on which you base your answer to this question in the format of [(s1, e1), (s2, e2), ...]. For example: <think>...</think><answer>A</answer><glue>[(5.2, 10.4)]</glue>.
"""

QA_THINK = """Answer the question: "[QUESTION]" according to the content of the video.

Output your think process within the  <think> </think> tags.

Then, provide your answer within the <answer> </answer> tags, output the corresponding letter of the option. For example: <think>...</think><answer>A</answer><glue>[(5.2, 10.4)]</glue>.
