Alibaba / Qwen

Qwen2.5-VL-32B-Instruct is a 32-billion-parameter vision-language model from Alibaba, extending the Qwen2.5 architecture with multimodal capabilities for understanding images, documents, charts, and video frames alongside text. The model was designed for tasks requiring deep visual reasoning — such as document parsing, table extraction, and spatial understanding — with performance that made it a practical choice for document intelligence and visual data analysis workflows. As an open-weight model, it became a widely adopted foundation for fine-tuning domain-specific multimodal applications.
