OpenAI CLIP

OpenAI CLIP (Contrastive Language–Image Pretraining) is an open-source model developed by OpenAI that learns visual concepts from natural language descriptions. CLIP enables zero-shot image classification, image-text matching, and multimodal understanding by jointly training images and text representations.

Features of OpenAI CLIP:

• Zero-shot image classification: can classify images without task-specific training.
• Supports multimodal tasks like image-to-text retrieval and text-to-image retrieval.
• Pre-trained on large-scale datasets to understand diverse visual concepts.
• Flexible integration with PyTorch for deep learning projects.
• Compatible with GPU acceleration for faster inference and training.
• Lightweight API that allows easy embedding extraction and similarity computation.
• Open-source availability, allowing customization and contribution to the project.
• Facilitates research and production use in AI, computer vision, and NLP applications.

To Check the Version of CLIP :
$ sudo su
$ sudo apt update
$ cd /opt/clip
$ source /opt/clip-env/bin/activate
$ pip show CLIP | grep Version
