## 🌟 Model Overview

**VersaViT** is a vision transformer tuned to serve as a capable, general-purpose visual encoder for multimodal systems. It is refined with a **multi-task collaborative post-training** recipe. VersaViT is **well suited both to language-mediated reasoning** (e.g., vision–language understanding when paired with an LLM) **and to pixel-level understanding** (e.g., segmentation and depth probing).

## Quick Start

```
import torch
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoImageProcessor
from models.versavit import VersaViTPretrainedModel


model_path = 'tencent/VersaViT'
processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained(model_path)
model = VersaViTPretrainedModel.from_pretrained(model_path, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, attn_implementation="flash_attention_2", device_map='cuda')

image = Image.open("./assets/versavit_logo.png")
inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt").to('cuda')
outputs = model.forward_wt_merger(inputs['pixel_values'], inputs['image_grid_thw'])
```
