V-JEPA 2

V-JEPA 2 is a self-supervised approach to training video encoders developed by FAIR, Meta. Using internet-scale video data, V-JEPA 2 attains state-of-the-art performance on motion understanding and human action anticipation tasks. V-JEPA 2-AC is a latent action-conditioned world model post-trained from V-JEPA 2 (using a small amount of robot trajectory interaction data) that solves robot manipulation tasks without environment-specific data collection or task-specific training or calibration.

You can find all original V-JEPA2 checkpoints under the V-JEPA 2 collection.

This model was contributed by koustuvs, yonigozlan and qubvel. The original code can be found here.

Usage example

The snippet below shows how to load the V-JEPA 2 model for feature extraction using the AutoModel class.

import torch
from torchcodec.decoders import VideoDecoder
import numpy as np

processor = AutoVideoProcessor.from_pretrained("facebook/vjepa2-vitl-fpc64-256")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "facebook/vjepa2-vitl-fpc64-256",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto",
    attn_implementation="sdpa"
)

video_url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/nateraw/kinetics-mini/resolve/main/val/archery/-Qz25rXdMjE_000014_000024.mp4"

vr = VideoDecoder(video_url)
frame_idx = np.arange(0, 64) # choosing some frames. here, you can define more complex sampling strategy
video = vr.get_frames_at(indices=frame_idx).data  # T x C x H x W
video = processor(video, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model(**video)

# V-JEPA 2 encoder outputs, same as calling `model.get_vision_features()`
encoder_outputs = outputs.last_hidden_state

# V-JEPA 2 predictor outputs
predictor_outputs = outputs.predictor_output.last_hidden_state

V-JEPA 2 can also be finetuned for video classification. In the following snippet, we show how use finetuned on Something-Something-V2 video classification model.

import torch
import numpy as np

from torchcodec.decoders import VideoDecoder
from transformers import AutoVideoProcessor, AutoModelForVideoClassification

device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

# Load model and video preprocessor
hf_repo = "facebook/vjepa2-vitl-fpc16-256-ssv2"

model = AutoModelForVideoClassification.from_pretrained(hf_repo).to(device)
processor = AutoVideoProcessor.from_pretrained(hf_repo)

# To load a video, sample the number of frames according to the model.
video_url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/nateraw/kinetics-mini/resolve/main/val/bowling/-WH-lxmGJVY_000005_000015.mp4"
vr = VideoDecoder(video_url)
frame_idx = np.arange(0, model.config.frames_per_clip, 8) # you can define more complex sampling strategy
video = vr.get_frames_at(indices=frame_idx).data  # frames x channels x height x width

# Preprocess and run inference
inputs = processor(video, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)
logits = outputs.logits

print("Top 5 predicted class names:")
top5_indices = logits.topk(5).indices[0]
top5_probs = torch.softmax(logits, dim=-1).topk(5).values[0]
for idx, prob in zip(top5_indices, top5_probs):
    text_label = model.config.id2label[idx.item()]
    print(f" - {text_label}: {prob:.2f}")
