 ### 多模态
 
-对于多模态数据集，和上述任务的格式相同。区别在于增加了`images`, `videos`, `audios`几个key，分别代表多模态资源的url或者path（推荐使用绝对路径），`<image>` `<video>` `<audio>`标签代表了插入图片/视频/音频的位置，ms-swift支持多图片/视频/音频的情况。这些特殊tokens将在预处理的时候进行替换，参考[这里](https://github.com/modelscope/ms-swift/blob/main/swift/llm/template/template/qwen.py#L198)。下面给出的四条示例分别展示了纯文本，以及包含图像、视频和音频数据的数据格式。

+SWIFT 支持从 LMDB 数据库加载多模态资源，使用格式为 `lmdb://key@path_to_lmdb`。这对于存储和访问大量图像、视频、音频等资源非常有效，特别适合训练和推理时处理大规模多模态数据集。使用前请确保已安装 LMDB：`pip install lmdb`。

 ### Multimodal
 
-For multimodal datasets, the format is the same as the aforementioned tasks. The difference lies in the addition of several keys: `images`, `videos`, and `audios`, which represent the URLs or paths (preferably absolute paths) of multimodal resources. The tags `<image>`, `<video>`, and `<audio>` indicate where to insert images, videos, or audio. MS-Swift supports multiple images, videos, and audio files. These special tokens will be replaced during preprocessing, as referenced [here](https://github.com/modelscope/ms-swift/blob/main/swift/llm/template/template/qwen.py#L198). The four examples below respectively demonstrate the data format for plain text, as well as formats containing image, video, and audio data.

+SWIFT supports loading multimodal resources from LMDB databases using the format `lmdb://key@path_to_lmdb`. This is highly effective for storing and accessing large collections of images, videos, audio files, and other resources, especially when training and inferencing with large-scale multimodal datasets. Make sure to install LMDB first: `pip install lmdb`.
