Perception Models
State-of-the-art Image & Video CLIP, Multimodal Large Language Models
Perception Models is a state-of-the-art framework developed by Facebook Research for advanced image and video perception tasks. It introduces two primary components: the Perception Encoder (PE) for visual feature extraction and the Perception Language Model (PLM) for multimodal decoding and reasoning. The PE module is a family of vision encoders designed to excel in image and video understanding, surpassing models like SigLIP2, InternVideo2, and DINOv2 across multiple benchmarks. Meanwhile, PLM integrates with PE to power vision-language modeling, achieving results competitive with leading multimodal systems such as QwenVL2.5 and InternVL3, all while being fully reproducible with open data. ...
