Following the success of our SEACrowd project, we’re excited to announce [SEA-VL](https://seacrowd.github.io/seavl-launch/), a new open-source initiative to create high-quality vision-language datasets specifically for Southeast Asian (SEA) languages! We’re calling on contributors to help us build a SEA-specific vision-language model.

SEA-VL is a big initiative, so we have decided to split it into two phases. In Phase 1 of SEA-VL, we’re looking for self-taken, culturally-relevant images with descriptions about the shared image. This will be cleaned and compiled into a comprehensive open-access SEA-relevant image dataset. To further extend the size of the culturally-relevant images, we also conduct SEA-relevant image dataset collection by developing a robust pipeline for crawling, filtering, and deduplication. This dataset will serve as the foundation for Phase 2, where we’ll develop instruction-tuning VL datasets and build a SEA-specific vision language model (VLM) using the constructed dataset.
