We introduce Vision-Flan, the largest human-annotated visual instruction tuning dataset that consists of 200+ diverse vision-language tasks derived from 101 open-source computer vision datasets. Each task is equipped with an expert written instruction and carefully designed templates for the inputs and outputs. The dataset encompasses a wide range of tasks such as image captioning, visual question-answering, and visual understanding. Vision-Flan is built to support various researches and applications in vision-language models, pushing the boundaries of understanding and interaction between these two modalities. Researchers and practitioners can leverage this dataset to advance the state of the art vision-language models and develop innovative algorithms in a wide range of domains.

This dataset includes:

1,664,261 instances sourced from academic datasets
187 diverse tasks
