sapiens2-pretrain-4k

Model Details

• Developed by: Meta
• Model type: Vision Transformer
• License: Sapiens2 License
• Task: pretrain (4K resolution)
• Format: safetensors
• File: sapiens2_1b_4k_pretrain.safetensors

Quick Start

Install the Sapiens2 repo (pip install -e .).

Important: This is the 4K variant. You must instantiate with use_tokenizer=True and pass an input tensor of shape (B, 3, 4096, 3072) (H × W).

import torch
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
from safetensors.torch import load_file
from sapiens.backbones.standalone.sapiens2 import Sapiens2

# Build the model and load the 4K pretrained checkpoint
model = Sapiens2(
    arch="sapiens2_1b",
    img_size=(4096, 3072),   # H × W
    patch_size=16,
    use_tokenizer=True,      # required for the 4K variant
).eval().cuda()

ckpt_path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="facebook/sapiens2-pretrain-1b-4k",
    filename="sapiens2_1b_4k_pretrain.safetensors",
)
model.load_state_dict(load_file(ckpt_path))

# Forward pass on a single 4K image (RGB; ImageNet normalization recommended)
x = torch.randn(1, 3, 4096, 3072).cuda()
with torch.no_grad():
    features = model(x)[0]  # dense backbone features

Model Card

Sapiens2 Family

See the Sapiens2 Collection for all variants and downstream task checkpoints (pose, segmentation, normals, pointmaps).

Intended Use

• Feature extraction for human-centric downstream tasks at 4K resolution
• Initialization for fine-tuning high-resolution task heads (pose, segmentation, normals, pointmap)
• Research on human-centric vision at high resolution
