PE-AV is a state-of-the-art multimodal model that embeds audio, video, audio-video, and text into a joint embedding space. The model enables powerful cross-modal retrieval and understanding across audio, video, and text modalities. PE-AV is trained using contrastive learning to align audio, video, and text representations in a shared embedding space. The model can encode: - **Audio only**: Extract audio embeddings from audio waveforms - **Video only**: Extract visual embeddings from video frames - **Audio-Video**: Extract joint audio-visual embeddings - **Text**: Extract text embeddings optimized for different modality pairs The `-16-frame` variants sample exactly 16 frames (evenly spaced apart) from each video, while the base variants support variable-length videos.
Perception Encoder (PE) is a state-of-the-art encoder for image and video understanding trained via simple vision-language learning. It was introduced in "Perception Encoder: The best visual embeddings are not at the output of the network". **Model Overview**: Perception Encoder (PE) is a family of large-scale vision encoder models with state-of-the-art performance on a large variety of vision tasks. By using a robust contrastive pretraining recipe and finetuning on synthetically aligned videos, PE not only outperforms all existing models on classification and retrieval, but it also internally produces strong, general features that scale for downstream tasks. PE unlocks the ability for large-scale contrastive pretraining to transfer to downstream tasks with alignment tuning to capitalize on those general features. PE core is our base model trained with our robust image pretraining schedule and finetuned on the data generated by our synthetic video data engine.
