We have a major code update scheduled for July 7th, 2025.

This update will introduce significant changes to the model's input/output format and processor's input/output format, resulting in breaking changes (BC-break).

To ensure existing users can continue using the current functionality without disruption, we plan to tag the current version. Users who wish to maintain the existing behavior are advised to use the revision argument as follows:

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "julien-c/EsperBERTo-small", revision="4c77982"   # tag name, or branch name, or commit hash
)

New Features in This Update

This update includes the following features:

• Latest HuggingFace apply_chat_template functionality (supporting list of content and list of conversations)
• Enhanced video processing logic in the Processor class
• Extensive refactoring and improved code readability
• vLLM-compatible HuggingFace Transformers implementation

The vLLM implementation will be released separately in a dedicated repository in a few weeks.
Thank you for your continued interest and support for our model.
