Intermediate layers of a contrastively trained vision-language encoder yield stronger general embeddings than the output layer, enabling state-of-the-art performance across image/video classification, multimodal QA, and dense prediction after simple alignment.

SigLIP replaces softmax-based contrastive loss with a simple pairwise sigmoid loss for vision-language pre-training, decoupling batch size from normalization and reaching strong zero-shot performance with limited compute.
SigLIP 2 models trained with a unified recipe of captioning, self-supervised losses, and curated diverse data outperform prior SigLIP versions on classification, retrieval, localization, dense prediction, and multilingual understanding at scales from 86M to 1B parameters.
