# VideoMAE (base-sized model, pre-trained only)
VideoMAE model pre-trained on Kinetics-400 for 1600 epochs in a self-supervised way. It was introduced in the paper [VideoMAE: Masked Autoencoders are Data-Efficient Learners for Self-Supervised Video Pre-Training](https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.12602) by Tong et al. and first released in [this repository](https://github.com/MCG-NJU/VideoMAE).
Disclaimer: The team releasing VideoMAE did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.
## Model description
VideoMAE is an extension of [Masked Autoencoders (MAE)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.06377) to video. The architecture of the model is very similar to that of a standard Vision Transformer (ViT), with a decoder on top for predicting pixel values for masked patches.
Videos are presented to the model as a sequence of fixed-size patches (resolution 16x16), which are linearly embedded. One also adds a [CLS] token to the beginning of a sequence to use it for classification tasks. One also adds fixed sinus/cosinus position embeddings before feeding the sequence to the layers of the Transformer encoder.
By pre-training the model, it learns an inner representation of videos that can then be used to extract features useful for downstream tasks: if you have a dataset of labeled videos for instance, you can train a standard classifier by placing a linear layer on top of the pre-trained encoder. One typically places a linear layer on top of the [CLS] token, as the last hidden state of this token can be seen as a representation of an entire video.
## Intended uses & limitations
You can use the raw model for predicting pixel values for masked patches of a video, but it's mostly intended to be fine-tuned on a downstream task. See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?filter=videomae) to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.
### How to use
Here is how to use this model to predict pixel values for randomly masked patches:
```python
from transformers import VideoMAEImageProcessor, VideoMAEForPreTraining
import numpy as np
import torch
num_frames = 16
video = list(np.random.randn(16, 3, 224, 224))
processor = VideoMAEImageProcessor.from_pretrained("MCG-NJU/videomae-base")
model = VideoMAEForPreTraining.from_pretrained("MCG-NJU/videomae-base")
pixel_values = processor(video, return_tensors="pt").pixel_values
num_patches_per_frame = (model.config.image_size // model.config.patch_size) ** 2
seq_length = (num_frames // model.config.tubelet_size) * num_patches_per_frame
bool_masked_pos = torch.randint(0, 2, (1, seq_length)).bool()
outputs = model(pixel_values, bool_masked_pos=bool_masked_pos)
loss = outputs.loss
```
