# ImageBind: One Embedding Space To Bind Them All

**[FAIR, Meta AI](https://ai.facebook.com/research/)** 

To appear at CVPR 2023 (*Highlighted paper*)

[[`Paper`](https://facebookresearch.github.io/ImageBind/paper)] [[`Blog`](https://ai.facebook.com/blog/imagebind-six-modalities-binding-ai/)] [[`Demo`](https://imagebind.metademolab.com/)] [[`Supplementary Video`](https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/imagebind/imagebind_video.mp4)] [[`BibTex`](#citing-imagebind)]

PyTorch implementation and pretrained models for ImageBind. For details, see the paper: **[ImageBind: One Embedding Space To Bind Them All](https://facebookresearch.github.io/ImageBind/paper)**.

ImageBind learns a joint embedding across six different modalities - images, text, audio, depth, thermal, and IMU data. It enables novel emergent applications ‘out-of-the-box’ including cross-modal retrieval, composing modalities with arithmetic, cross-modal detection and generation.

## Usage

First git clone the repository:

```bash
git clone -b feature/add_hf https://github.com/nielsrogge/ImageBind.git
cd ImageBind
```

Next, install pytorch 1.13+ and other 3rd party dependencies.

```shell
conda create --name imagebind python=3.8 -y
conda activate imagebind

pip install .
```

For windows users, you might need to install `soundfile` for reading/writing audio files. (Thanks @congyue1977)

```
pip install soundfile
```


Extract and compare features across modalities (e.g. Image, Text and Audio).

```python
from imagebind import data
import torch
from imagebind.models import imagebind_model
from imagebind.models.imagebind_model import ModalityType
from imagebind.models.imagebind_model import ImageBindModel

text_list=["A dog.", "A car", "A bird"]
image_paths=[".assets/dog_image.jpg", ".assets/car_image.jpg", ".assets/bird_image.jpg"]
audio_paths=[".assets/dog_audio.wav", ".assets/car_audio.wav", ".assets/bird_audio.wav"]

device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

model = ImageBindModel.from_pretrained("nielsr/imagebind-huge")
model.eval()
model.to(device)

# Load data
inputs = {
    ModalityType.TEXT: data.load_and_transform_text(text_list, device),
    ModalityType.VISION: data.load_and_transform_vision_data(image_paths, device),
    ModalityType.AUDIO: data.load_and_transform_audio_data(audio_paths, device),
}

with torch.no_grad():
    embeddings = model(inputs)

print(
    "Vision x Text: ",
    torch.softmax(embeddings[ModalityType.VISION] @ embeddings[ModalityType.TEXT].T, dim=-1),
)
print(
    "Audio x Text: ",
    torch.softmax(embeddings[ModalityType.AUDIO] @ embeddings[ModalityType.TEXT].T, dim=-1),
)
print(
    "Vision x Audio: ",
    torch.softmax(embeddings[ModalityType.VISION] @ embeddings[ModalityType.AUDIO].T, dim=-1),
)

# Expected output:
#
# Vision x Text:
# tensor([[9.9761e-01, 2.3694e-03, 1.8612e-05],
#         [3.3836e-05, 9.9994e-01, 2.4118e-05],
#         [4.7997e-05, 1.3496e-02, 9.8646e-01]])
#
# Audio x Text:
# tensor([[1., 0., 0.],
#         [0., 1., 0.],
#         [0., 0., 1.]])
#
# Vision x Audio:
# tensor([[0.8070, 0.1088, 0.0842],
#         [0.1036, 0.7884, 0.1079],
#         [0.0018, 0.0022, 0.9960]])
