Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA)

Predicts masked content in representation space rather than pixels.

联合嵌入预测架构 JEPA 2023 Advanced core

IN PLAIN WORDS

LeCun's approach: predict target-block representations from context-block representations, ignoring unpredictable detail. I-JEPA for images, V-JEPA for video.

Used in: Meta I-JEPA / V-JEPA / V-JEPA 2 (video understanding, prediction and robot planning); PDE-JEPA (arXiv 2609.34715, Sep 2026) applies it to PDE dynamics
