## What it is
Reference PyTorch implementation and pretrained models for DINOv3, Meta's self-supervised vision transformer backbone family. It includes training, evaluation, and probing recipes for tasks like segmentation, depth estimation, and image classification.

## Use cases
- extract visual features from images with a pretrained vision transformer
- fine-tune a self-supervised vision backbone for classification
- run linear probing for semantic segmentation on ADE20K
- estimate monocular depth from images
- train vision models on satellite or microscopy imagery
- download DINOv3 weights for use with Hugging Face Transformers or timm

## When to choose
- you need a strong general-purpose vision backbone for downstream tasks
- you want reference PyTorch code for self-supervised vision training or distillation
- you work on remote sensing or scientific imagery and want metadata-guided adaptation recipes

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight model for edge or mobile deployment
- you want a non-PyTorch framework like TensorFlow or JAX
- you need a permissively licensed model for commercial use without checking the custom license

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: machine-learning, deep-learning, image-processing, computer-vision
- domain: machine-learning, computer-vision, deep-learning, image-processing
