# Sapiens2-1B

Sapiens2 is a family of high-resolution vision transformers pretrained on **1 billion human images** — designed for human-centric tasks such as pose estimation, body-part segmentation, surface normals, and pointmaps.

This repository contains the **1B parameter pretrained backbone**. It produces dense per-patch features suitable for fine-tuning downstream task heads.

## Model Details

- **Developed by:** Meta
- **Model type:** Vision Transformer
- **License:** [Sapiens2 License](https://github.com/facebookresearch/sapiens2/blob/main/LICENSE.md)
- **Task:** pretrain
- **Format:** safetensors
- **File:** `sapiens2_1b_pretrain.safetensors`

## Quick Start

Install the [Sapiens2 repo](https://github.com/facebookresearch/sapiens2) (`pip install -e .`).

```python
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 pretrained checkpoint
model = Sapiens2(arch="sapiens2_1b", img_size=(1024, 768), patch_size=16).eval().cuda()  # img_size is (H, W)
ckpt_path = hf_hub_download(repo_id="facebook/sapiens2-pretrain-1b", filename="sapiens2_1b_pretrain.safetensors")
model.load_state_dict(load_file(ckpt_path))

# Forward pass on a single image (RGB; ImageNet normalization recommended)
x = torch.randn(1, 3, 1024, 768).cuda()
with torch.no_grad():
    features = model(x)[0]  # dense backbone features: (B, num_tokens, embed_dim)
```
