Qwen2.5-VL-72B-Instruct represents a significant upgrade in the Qwen family of vision-language models. Building on feedback from developers, it excels in visual recognition (objects, text, charts, layouts), acts as a visual agent for tool-based reasoning, and processes long videos (1+ hours) with precise event localization. It supports object detection via bounding boxes/points and generates structured outputs (e.g., invoices, tables) for finance/commerce. Architectural improvements include dynamic FPS training for video understanding, optimized ViT with window attention/SwiGLU, and temporal mRoPE enhancements. Available in 3B/7B/72B variants, this 72B instruction-tuned model balances speed and performance.
