# Introduction
[[`AIMv2 Paper`](https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.14402)] [[`BibTeX`](#citation)]

We introduce the AIMv2 family of vision models pre-trained with a multimodal autoregressive objective.
AIMv2 pre-training is simple and straightforward to train and scale effectively. Some AIMv2 highlights include:

1. Outperforms OAI CLIP and SigLIP on the majority of multimodal understanding benchmarks.
2. Outperforms DINOv2 on open-vocabulary object detection and referring expression comprehension.
3. Exhibits strong recognition performance with AIMv2-3B achieving *89.5% on ImageNet using a frozen trunk*.

## Usage

### PyTorch
```python
import requests
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoImageProcessor, AutoModel

url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)

processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained(
    "apple/aimv2-3B-patch14-224",
)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "apple/aimv2-3B-patch14-224",
    trust_remote_code=True,
)

inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)
```

### JAX
```python
import requests
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoImageProcessor, FlaxAutoModel

url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)

processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained(
    "apple/aimv2-3B-patch14-224",
)
model = FlaxAutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "apple/aimv2-3B-patch14-224",
    trust_remote_code=True,
)

inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="jax")
outputs = model(**inputs)
```
