# DepthPro-Safetensors

This repository contains Apple's [DepthPro](https://huggingface.co/apple/DepthPro) depth estimation model converted to the SafeTensors format for improved memory efficiency, security, and faster loading times.

## Model Overview

DepthPro is a state-of-the-art monocular depth estimation model developed by Apple that produces sharp and accurate metric depth maps from a single image in less than a second. This converted version preserves all the capabilities of the original model while providing the benefits of the SafeTensors format.

## Technical Specifications

- **Total Parameters**: 951,991,330
- **Memory Usage**: 1815.78 MB
- **Precision**: torch.float16
- **Estimated FLOPs**: 3,501,896,768

_Details calculated with [TensorKIKO](https://github.com/takara-ai/TensorKiko)_

## Usage

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForDepthEstimation, AutoImageProcessor
import torch
from PIL import Image

# Load model and processor
model = AutoModelForDepthEstimation.from_pretrained("takara-ai/DepthPro-Safetensors")
processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained("takara-ai/DepthPro-Safetensors")

# Prepare image
image = Image.open("your_image.jpg")
inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt")

# Inference
with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)
    predicted_depth = outputs.predicted_depth

# Post-process for visualization
depth_map = processor.post_process_depth_estimation(outputs, target_size=image.size[::-1])
```

## Benefits of SafeTensors Format

- **Improved Security**: Resistant to code execution vulnerabilities
- **Faster Loading Times**: Optimized memory mapping for quicker model initialization
- **Memory Efficiency**: Better handling of tensor storage for reduced memory footprint
- **Parallel Loading**: Support for efficient parallel tensor loading
