# PerceptionLM

## Overview

The [PerceptionLM](https://huggingface.co/papers/2504.13180) model was proposed in [PerceptionLM: Open-Access Data and Models for Detailed Visual Understanding](https://ai.meta.com/research/publications/perceptionlm-open-access-data-and-models-for-detailed-visual-understanding/) by Jang Hyun Cho et al. It's a fully open, reproducible model for transparent research in image and video understanding. PLM consists of
a vision encoder with a small scale (<8B parameters) LLM decoder.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*Vision-language models are integral to computer vision research, yet many high-performing models
remain closed-source, obscuring their data, design and training recipe. The research community
has responded by using distillation from black-box models to label training data, achieving strong
benchmark results, at the cost of measurable scientific progress. However, without knowing the details
of the teacher model and its data sources, scientific progress remains difficult to measure. In this
paper, we study building a Perception Language Model (PLM) in a fully open and reproducible
framework for transparent research in image and video understanding. We analyze standard training
pipelines without distillation from proprietary models and explore large-scale synthetic data to identify
critical data gaps, particularly in detailed video understanding. To bridge these gaps, we release 2.8M
human-labeled instances of fine-grained video question-answer pairs and spatio-temporally grounded
video captions. Additionally, we introduce PLM–VideoBench, a suite for evaluating challenging video
understanding tasks focusing on the ability to reason about “what”, “where”, “when”, and “how” of a
video. We make our work fully reproducible by providing data, training recipes, code & models.*

The bare Perception Lm Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch [torch.nn.Module](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module) subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.

  Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/tokenization_utils#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerBase.encode) and

  [What are input IDs?](../glossary#input-ids)
- **pixel_values** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, image_size, image_size)`, *optional*) --
  The tensors corresponding to the input images. Pixel values can be obtained using
  [PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast). See [PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast.__call__()](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/fuyu#transformers.FuyuImageProcessor.__call__) for details ([PerceptionLMProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMProcessor) uses

- **pixel_values_videos** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_frames, num_channels, frame_size, frame_size)`, *optional*) --
  The tensors corresponding to the input video. Pixel values for videos can be obtained using
  [PerceptionLMVideoProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMVideoProcessor).

  [PerceptionLMVideoProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMVideoProcessor) for processing videos).
- **attention_mask** (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

  - 1 for tokens that are **not masked**,
  - 0 for tokens that are **masked**.

  [What are attention masks?](../glossary#attention-mask)
- **position_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.n_positions - 1]`.

  [What are position IDs?](../glossary#position-ids)
- **past_key_values** (`~cache_utils.Cache`, *optional*) --
  Pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention
  blocks) that can be used to speed up sequential decoding. This typically consists in the `past_key_values`
  returned by the model at a previous stage of decoding, when `use_cache=True` or `config.use_cache=True`.

  Only [Cache](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.Cache) instance is allowed as input, see our [kv cache guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/kv_cache).
  If no `past_key_values` are passed, [DynamicCache](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.DynamicCache) will be initialized by default.

  The model will output the same cache format that is fed as input.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user is expected to input only unprocessed `input_ids` (those that don't
  have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, unprocessed_length)` instead of all `input_ids`
  of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.
- **inputs_embeds** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) --
  Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This
  is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the
  model's internal embedding lookup matrix.
- **use_cache** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see
  `past_key_values`).
- **output_attentions** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned
  tensors for more detail.
- **output_hidden_states** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for
  more detail.
- **cache_position** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to `position_ids`,
  this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer
  the complete sequence length.
- **logits_to_keep** (`Union[int, torch.Tensor]`, *optional*, defaults to `0`) --
  If an `int`, compute logits for the last `logits_to_keep` tokens. If `0`, calculate logits for all
  `input_ids` (special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that
  token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size.
  If a `torch.Tensor`, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension.
  This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).0`transformers.models.perception_lm.modeling_perception_lm.PerceptionLMModelOutputWithPast` or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`A `transformers.models.perception_lm.modeling_perception_lm.PerceptionLMModelOutputWithPast` or a tuple of

elements depending on the configuration ([PerceptionLMConfig](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMConfig)) and inputs.

- **last_hidden_state** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) -- Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the model.

For more details, see our [kv cache guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/kv_cache).

instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while
the latter silently ignores them.

[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v5.0.0/src/transformers/models/perception_lm/modeling_perception_lm.py#L315)

The Perception Lm Model for token generation conditioned on other modalities (e.g. image-text-to-text generation).

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch [torch.nn.Module](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module) subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.

  Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/tokenization_utils#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerBase.encode) and

  [What are input IDs?](../glossary#input-ids)
- **pixel_values** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, image_size, image_size)`, *optional*) --
  The tensors corresponding to the input images. Pixel values can be obtained using
  [PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast). See [PerceptionLMImageProcessorFast.__call__()](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/fuyu#transformers.FuyuImageProcessor.__call__) for details ([PerceptionLMProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMProcessor) uses

- **pixel_values_videos** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_frames, num_channels, frame_size, frame_size)`, *optional*) --
  The tensors corresponding to the input video. Pixel values for videos can be obtained using
  [PerceptionLMVideoProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMVideoProcessor). See [PerceptionLMVideoProcessor.__call__()](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/pe_video#transformers.PeVideoVideoProcessor.__call__) for details ([PerceptionLMProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMProcessor) uses
  [PerceptionLMVideoProcessor](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/model_doc/perception_lm#transformers.PerceptionLMVideoProcessor) for processing videos).
- **attention_mask** (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

  - 1 for tokens that are **not masked**,
  - 0 for tokens that are **masked**.

  [What are attention masks?](../glossary#attention-mask)
- **position_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.n_positions - 1]`.

  [What are position IDs?](../glossary#position-ids)
- **past_key_values** (`~cache_utils.Cache`, *optional*) --
  Pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention
  blocks) that can be used to speed up sequential decoding. This typically consists in the `past_key_values`
  returned by the model at a previous stage of decoding, when `use_cache=True` or `config.use_cache=True`.

  Only [Cache](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.Cache) instance is allowed as input, see our [kv cache guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/kv_cache).
  If no `past_key_values` are passed, [DynamicCache](/docs/transformers/v5.0.0/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.DynamicCache) will be initialized by default.

  The model will output the same cache format that is fed as input.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user is expected to input only unprocessed `input_ids` (those that don't
  have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, unprocessed_length)` instead of all `input_ids`
  of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.
- **inputs_embeds** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) --
  Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This
  is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the
  model's internal embedding lookup matrix.
- **labels** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in `[0, ...,
  config.vocab_size]` or -100 (see `input_ids` docstring). Tokens with indices set to `-100` are ignored
  (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`.
- **use_cache** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see
  `past_key_values`).
- **output_attentions** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned
  tensors for more detail.
- **output_hidden_states** (`bool`, *optional*) --
  Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for
  more detail.
- **cache_position** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to `position_ids`,
  this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer
  the complete sequence length.
- **logits_to_keep** (`Union[int, torch.Tensor]`, *optional*, defaults to `0`) --
  If an `int`, compute logits for the last `logits_to_keep` tokens. If `0`, calculate logits for all
  `input_ids` (special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that
  token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size.
  If a `torch.Tensor`, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension.
  This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).0`transformers.models.perception_lm.modeling_perception_lm.PerceptionLMCausalLMOutputWithPast` or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`A `transformers.models.perception_lm.modeling_perception_lm.PerceptionLMCausalLMOutputWithPast` or a tuple of
