+A BEiT model trained using Data2Vec based on the paper [data2vec: A General Framework for Self-supervised Learning in Speech, Vision and Language](https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.03555).<br>
+This model is provided here for [this repo](https://github.com/AryanShekarlaban/data2vec-pytorch) but was NOT trained using that codebase but instead, copied from `facebook/data2vec-vision-base` for convenience and reproducibility.
