ERNIE-4.5-Turbo-VL-32k

ERNIE 4.5 Turbo VL 32K is Baidu’s visual-understanding profile for an image-led question and a textual answer. Its maker lists a 32K context, up to 27K input tokens and a completion range of 2–12,288 tokens.

About the model

This description covers the model’s capabilities. Available in Ailoot inputs, outputs and options are listed for the selected method below.

ERNIE 4.5 Turbo VL 32K is the named 32K visual-understanding profile in Baidu’s ERNIE 4.5 Turbo family. It is useful when an image provides the evidence for a written question and the required result is a textual interpretation. The exact 32K identity distinguishes this entry from the separate larger-context Turbo VL profile.

Ask for the information the image contains

Provide a readable image and specify the question it should answer. For a page or diagram, identify the relevant labels, region or relationship. Ask the response to separate visible details from the conclusion drawn from them, so important facts can be checked against the original source.

If the task combines an image with additional written facts, label those facts separately. A useful comparison can ask how a visible diagram relates to the accompanying description, rather than assuming the image establishes information that is present only in the text. Request a compact explanation or defined fields according to the result the application needs.

Plan the 32K working budget

Baidu’s model list gives this exact profile a 32K context, a maximum input of 27K tokens and an output range of 2–12,288 tokens. These are separate limits: a response ceiling is not an additional input allowance. Prepare relevant source material and leave appropriate room for the explanation within the active working context.

Keep the image, question and returned text together when revising an interpretation. A follow-up can point to one disputed detail and ask for that part to be reconsidered. The visual-understanding result is text grounded in the supplied image; creating a new image is a separate output task.

Practical task

Explain a transcribed process diagram

Technical example in English

Explain a transcribed process diagram

Use this written transcription of a process diagram: "Start -> inspect package -> damaged? Yes: quarantine; No: stock shelf." Explain both paths to a warehouse trainee in four short steps. Use only the supplied text, and end with one question about a process detail the transcription does not specify.

Expected result

Four concise process steps and one clearly unanswered process question.

Check the result

Verify that the damaged branch leads to quarantine and the undamaged branch to stock, with no claim of image inspection.
