## Usage (Transformers.js)

If you haven't already, you can install the [Transformers.js](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers.js) JavaScript library from [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@xenova/transformers) using:
```bash
npm i @huggingface/transformers
```

You can then use the model for image matting, as follows:

```js
import { AutoModel, AutoProcessor, RawImage } from '@huggingface/transformers';

// Load model and processor
const model_id = 'onnx-community/BiRefNet_lite';
const model = await AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_id, { dtype: 'fp32' });
const processor = await AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id);

// Load image from URL
const url = 'https://images.pexels.com/photos/5965592/pexels-photo-5965592.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&w=1024';
const image = await RawImage.fromURL(url);

// Pre-process image
const { pixel_values } = await processor(image);

// Predict alpha matte
const { output_image } = await model({ input_image: pixel_values });

// Save output mask
const mask = await RawImage.fromTensor(output_image[0].sigmoid().mul(255).to('uint8')).resize(image.width, image.height);
mask.save('mask.png');
```

| Input image | Output mask |

Note: Having a separate repo for ONNX weights is intended to be a temporary solution until WebML gains more traction. If you would like to make your models web-ready, we recommend converting to ONNX using [🤗 Optimum](https://huggingface.co/docs/optimum/index) and structuring your repo like this one (with ONNX weights located in a subfolder named `onnx`).
