This is the lpft arm of the iter18 FactorJEPA ablation: LP-FT baseline: linear-probe warmup then full fine-tune (Kumar et al. ICLR'22) (B2). The study compares factor-surgery against strong fine-tuning baselines on the claim vjepa_surgery >> vjepa_pretrain >> vjepa_frozen for motion / temporal features on Indian urban video. Every non-pretrain arm initializes from the SAME continual-pretrain checkpoint (fair duel — identical data, identical starting weights).

⚡ Quick start — self-contained, no other code needed

This repo ships everything: the weights, the architecture (vjepa2_src/, vendored Meta V-JEPA 2 source, MIT), and a loader. Download it and run — no private package, no separate clone.

bash

huggingface-cli download anonymousML123/factorjepa-lpft-vjepa21-vitG-2B-poc --local-dir factorjepa-model
cd factorjepa-model && pip install -r requirements.txt
python load_factorjepa.py --encoder student_encoder.pt    # builds 2B ViT-G, loads, forwards (no video needed)

python

from load_factorjepa import load_encoder, preprocess_frames, extract_features
encoder = load_encoder("student_encoder.pt", device="cuda")   # bf16 on cuda, fp32 on cpu
clip = preprocess_frames(frames_uint8)[None]                  # (T,H,W,3) uint8 -> (1, 16, 3, 384, 384)
feats = extract_features(encoder, clip)                       # (1, 4608, 1664) token features

NATIVE V-JEPA 2.1 ViT weights — NOT transformers.VJEPA2Model (AutoModel.from_pretrained fails: different keys + no 2.1 deep-supervision head). No xformers (SDPA attention). student_encoder.pt is encoder-only — for an actual next-frame prediction heatmap also load the predictor from m09c_ckpt_best.pt (key predictor): from load_factorjepa import load_predictor; predictor = load_predictor("m09c_ckpt_best.pt", device="cuda").

🏗️ Architecture


Encoder	V-JEPA 2.1 ViT-G — `embed_dim=1664`, `depth=48`, `num_heads=26`, RoPE, 2B params (1.84B exact)
Input	`(B, 3, T=16, 384, 384)` — 16 frames, 384² center-crop, ImageNet-normalized; patch 16, tubelet 2
Tokens	`8 × 24 × 24 = 4608` tokens × 1664-dim (final layer); deep-supervision concat = 4608 × 6656
Predictor	2.1 predictor — `predictor_embed_dim=384`, `depth=24`, `num_heads=12`, dense-loss (`return_all_tokens`)
Attention	`scaled_dot_product_attention` (SDPA) — no xformers

The exact constructor kwargs are in load_factorjepa.py (verified against the eval pipeline that produced these weights). student_encoder.pt wraps the weights under the key student_state_dict — the loader unwraps it, strips module./backbone. prefixes, and asserts ≥90% of params load (fail-loud).
