Abstract

AM-RADIO is a framework to distill Large Vision Foundation models into a single one. RADIO, a new vision foundation model, excels across visual domains, serving as a superior replacement for vision backbones. Integrating CLIP variants, DINOv2, and SAM through distillation, it preserves unique features like text grounding and segmentation correspondence. Outperforming teachers in ImageNet zero-shot (+6.8%), kNN (+2.39%), and linear probing segmentation (+3.8%) and vision-language models (LLaVa 1.5 up to 1.5%), it scales to any resolution, supports non-square images. We offer an efficient variant, E-RADIO, which achieves is 6-10x faster than CLIP and DINOv2.

Quick start and model versions:

The latest model version is RADIOv2. We will update the description once new model is available.

TorchHub

To load in the TorchHub, use the following command:

from PIL import Image

import torch
from torch.nn import functional as F
from torchvision.transforms.functional import pil_to_tensor
model_version="radio_v2.5-h" # for RADIOv2.5-H model (ViT-H/16)
# model_version="radio_v2.5-l" # for RADIOv2.5-L model (ViT-L/16)
#model_version="radio_v2.5-b" # for RADIOv2.5-B model (ViT-B/16)
#model_version="e-radio_v2" # for E-RADIO
model = torch.hub.load('NVlabs/RADIO', 'radio_model', version=model_version, progress=True, skip_validation=True)
model.cuda().eval()

x = Image.open('assets/radio_overview_github.png').convert('RGB')
x = pil_to_tensor(x).to(dtype=torch.float32, device='cuda')
x.div_(255.0)  # RADIO expects the input values to be between 0 and 1
x = x.unsqueeze(0) # Add a batch dimension

nearest_res = model.get_nearest_supported_resolution(*x.shape[-2:])
x = F.interpolate(x, nearest_res, mode='bilinear', align_corners=False)

if "e-radio" in model_version:
    model.model.set_optimal_window_size(x.shape[2:]) #where it expects a tuple of (height, width) of the input image.

# RADIO expects the input to have values between [0, 1]. It will automatically normalize them to have mean 0 std 1.
summary, spatial_features = model(x)

# By default, RADIO will return the spatial_features in NLC format, with L being a combined height/width dimension.
# You can alternatively ask for the features in the more computer-vision-convenient format NCHW the following way:
summary, spatial_features = model(x, feature_fmt='NCHW')
assert spatial_features.ndim == 4

# RADIO also supports running in mixed precision:
with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
    summary, spatial_features = model(x)

# If you'd rather pre-normalize the inputs, then you can do this:
conditioner = model.make_preprocessor_external()

# Now, the model won't change the inputs, and it's up to the user to call `cond_x = conditioner(x)` before
# calling `model(cond_x)`. You most likely would do this if you want to move the conditioning into your
# existing data processing pipeline.
with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
    cond_x = conditioner(x)
    summary, spatial_features = model(cond_x)

For the previous version, use radio_v1, radio_v2, radio_v2.1, or eradio_v1 for the E-RADIO model.

import torch
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoModel, CLIPImageProcessor

# hf_repo = "nvidia/E-RADIO" # For E-RADIO.
#hf_repo = "nvidia/RADIO-B" # For RADIO-B.
hf_repo = "nvidia/RADIO-L" # For RADIO-L.
# NOTE: "nvidia/RADIO-H" coming soon!

image_processor = CLIPImageProcessor.from_pretrained(hf_repo)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(hf_repo, trust_remote_code=True)
model.eval().cuda()

image = Image.open('./assets/radio.png').convert('RGB')
pixel_values = image_processor(images=image, return_tensors='pt', do_resize=True).pixel_values
pixel_values = pixel_values.cuda()

summary, features = model(pixel_values)

Please see more details on usage in the Quick Start section. Information on how to load Adapters (teacher specific heads) is also available in the Quick Start section.

Results

Model stats and summarization metrics:

For summarization results we use the summarization token of the model. For Zero-shot we use the corresponding language embedding for most models. For RADIO models we use language embedding from DFN CLIP 378 model.

Segmentation metrics:

• Segmentation setup: linear probing, simple head
• For SAM COCO results, we replace the vision backbone of the SAM model with the corresponding RADIO model. The decoder is frozen from the original model.

Vision-language model performance metrics in LLaVa 1.5:

We replace the vision backbone and keep the same LLM and training recipe as in LLaVa 1.5:

*NOTE: We run RADIOv2.1 in 432px resolution and RADIOv2.5-X in 768px resolution. While this may seem unfair, it's actually because the mode switching problem in RADIOv2.1 prevents it from achieving strong results at resolutions above 432. Starting with RADIOv2.5, we have fixed mode switching, which has allowed us to increase the input resolution, resulting in remarkable improvements in metrics across the board. Details in tech report.

Probing 3D Awareness

Probing 3D Awareness: we use the code from Probing the 3D Awareness of Visual Foundation Models and evaluate our RADIO model and its teachers on monocular depth, surface normals and multi-view correspondance tasks, using the NAVI dataset. For each task we report the accuracy, averaged over all thresholds. RADIO preserves features of DINOv2 and performs much better than CLIP analogs.

Detailed usage

import torch

# If you don't supply the `version` parameter, the latest ViT version will be returned.
model = torch.hub.load('NVlabs/RADIO', 'radio_model', version='radio_v2.5-h', progress=True)
model.cuda().eval()

x = torch.rand(1, 3, 224, 224, device='cuda')

# NOTE: RADIO models expect the input to have values in the range [0, 1]
# NOTE 2: `radio_v1` is a ViT-H/14 model, and supports inputs in the size range `224 < dim < 1008`
#           where each dimension must be divisible by 14.
#           Non-square inputs are supported.
# NOTE 3: `radio_v2` is a ViT-H/16 model, and supports inputs in the size range `224 < dim < 2048`
#           where each dimension must be divisible by 16.
summary, spatial_features = model(x)

# RADIO also supports running in mixed precision, like so:
with torch.cuda.amp.autocast(dtype=torch.bfloat16):
    summary, spatial_features = model(x)

HuggingFace

from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoModel, CLIPImageProcessor

hf_repo = "nvidia/RADIO" # For RADIO.
# hf_repo = "nvidia/E-RADIO" # For E-RADIO.

image_processor = CLIPImageProcessor.from_pretrained(hf_repo)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(hf_repo, trust_remote_code=True)
model.eval().cuda()

image = Image.open('./examples/image1.png').convert('RGB')
pixel_values = image_processor(images=image, return_tensors='pt').pixel_values
pixel_values = pixel_values.to(torch.bfloat16).cuda()

summary, features = model(pixel_values)

In order to use adaptors with models from HuggingFace, first you need to load the config and set adaptor_names, then load the model using this config.

config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained(args.hf_repo, trust_remote_code=True)
config.adaptor_names = ["clip", "sam"]
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(hf_repo, trust_remote_code=True, config=config)
model.eval().cuda()

clip_summary, clip_features = model(pixel_values)["clip"].summary, model(pixel_values)["clip"].features
sam_summary, sam_features = model(pixel_values)["sam"].summary, model(pixel_values)["sam"].features

Usage

RADIO and E-RADIO will return a tuple with two tensors. The summary is similar to the cls_token in ViT and is meant to represent the general concept of the entire image. It has shape $(B,C)$ with $B$ being the batch dimension, and $C$ being some number of channels. The spatial_features represent more localized content which should be suitable for dense tasks such as semantic segmentation, or for integration into an LLM. RADIO and E-RADIO return spatial features in different shapes:

• RADIO: spatial features have shape $(B,T,D)$ with $T$ being the flattened spatial tokens, and $D$ being the channels for spatial features. Note that $C \neq D$ in general.
• E-RADIO: spatial features have shape $(B,H,W,D)$ with $H$ being the height, and $W$ being the width of the spatial features.

For RADIO, converting to a spatial tensor format can be done using the downsampling size of the model, combined with the input tensor shape. For 'radio_v1', the patch size is 14.

from einops import rearrange
spatial_features = rearrange(spatial_features, 'b (h w) d -> b d h w', h=x.shape[-2] // patch_size, w=x.shape[-1] // patch_size)

The resulting tensor will have shape $(B,D,H,W)$, as is typically seen with computer vision models.

RADIOv1/v2 Notes

We have trained this model to be flexible in input dimension. It supports arbitrary input sizes. There are useful properties set for the returned model that you may query:

model.patch_size: int
model.max_resolution: int # (Images can be no larger than this value on either dimension)
model.preferred_resolution: Tuple[height, width] # This is the primary resolution that RADIO was trained at, and will likely
                                                 # produce best results for summary tasks. Dense tasks require experimentation
                                                 # to find the best resolution.
model.window_size: Optional[int] # If `vitdet_window_size` was specified, this is that value
model.min_resolution_step: int # Combines `patch_size` and `window_size` to define what each image dimension must be a multiple of.
                               # e.g. If `patch_size == 16`, then both width and height must be x*16
                               # If `patch_size == 14` and `window_size == 8` then width and height must be x*14*8

# For convenience, you can also call this function to get the nearest valid input size for a given image
nearest_height, nearest_width = model.get_nearest_supported_resolution(height=1024, width=1024)

RADIO allows non-square inputs. In fact, both RADIOv1 and RADIOv2 achieve higher zero-shot classification scores when allowing the larger image dimension to vary, and only fixing the smaller dimension.

Adaptors

(Currently only supported with TorchHub)

You may additionally specify model adaptors to achieve extra behaviors. In this mode, radio will return a dict of tuples:

model = torch.hub.load(..., adaptor_names='clip', ...)

output = model(x)

bb_summary, bb_features = output['backbone']
clip_summary, clip_features = output['clip']

Refer to examples/zero_shot_imagenet.py for example usage.

Supported Adaptors:

• RADIOv2.5: clip, siglip, dino_v2, sam
• RADIOv2[.1]: clip, dino_v2, sam

The clip and siglip adaptors have the additional functionality of supporting tokenization and language encoding. Refer to examples/zero_shot_imagenet.py for this use, as well as the API.

Preprocessing

By default, RADIO expects the input images to have normalized values in the [0, 1] range. If you already have an existing data pipeline, and you'd like conditioning to occur there instead of within the RADIO model, you can call this function:

preprocessor = model.make_preprocessor_external()

images = preprocessor(images)
...
output = model(images)

E-RADIO is a more efficient variant of RADIO, but it has some limitations:

• E-RADIO naively supports only images with size divisible by 32. Other resolutions are supported but might result in a performance drop.
• E-RADIO performance is sensative to the window size of the windowed attention in the 3rd and 4th block. For the best performance automatically adjust the window size for the input resolution: model.model.set_optimal_window_size(IMAGE_SHAPE), where IMAGE_SHAPE is a tuple of (height, width) of the input image.

Intermediate Layer Activations

(Currently only supported with RADIO)

Intermediate layer activations can be fetched during inference by using the forward_intermediates() method. Example:

outputs = model.forward_intermediates(images, indices=[7, 15, 23, 31])
