MLLM-Protector: Ensuring MLLM’s Safety without Hurting Performance

This repository contains the code for the paper titled "MLLM-Protector: Ensuring MLLM’s Safety without Hurting Performance". [Link to our paper]

Install Packages

conda create -n mllm_protector python=3.10 -y

conda activate mllm_protector

pip install -e .

Download pretrained LLM

Obtain weights for llama-3B from here

Download checkpoint for harm detector and detoxfier

Obtain lora checkpoint for harm detector with open-llama-3b from here

Obtain lora checkpoint for harm detector with llama2-7b from here

Obtain lora checkpoint for detoxifer from here

You may use the harm detector to check the responses generated by the MLLM to verify the harmfulness, which also serves as a proxy for GPT4 API calls.
