+# Model outputs
+
+All models have outputs that are instances of subclasses of [`~utils.ModelOutput`]. Those are
+data structures containing all the information returned by the model, but that can also be used as tuples or
+dictionaries.
+
+Let's see how this looks in an example:
+
+```python
+from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForSequenceClassification
+import torch
+
+tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")
+model = BertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")
+
+inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
+labels = torch.tensor([1]).unsqueeze(0)  # Batch size 1
+outputs = model(**inputs, labels=labels)
+```
+
+The `outputs` object is a [`~modeling_outputs.SequenceClassifierOutput`], as we can see in the
+documentation of that class below, it means it has an optional `loss`, a `logits`, an optional `hidden_states` and
+an optional `attentions` attribute. Here we have the `loss` since we passed along `labels`, but we don't have
+`hidden_states` and `attentions` because we didn't pass `output_hidden_states=True` or
+`output_attentions=True`.
+
+<Tip>
+
+When passing `output_hidden_states=True` you may expect the `outputs.hidden_states[-1]` to match `outputs.last_hidden_state` exactly.
+However, this is not always the case. Some models apply normalization or subsequent process to the last hidden state when it's returned.
+
+</Tip>
+
+You can access each attribute as you would usually do, and if that attribute has not been returned by the model, you
+will get `None`. Here for instance `outputs.loss` is the loss computed by the model, and `outputs.attentions` is
+`None`.
+
+When considering our `outputs` object as tuple, it only considers the attributes that don't have `None` values.
+Here for instance, it has two elements, `loss` then `logits`, so
+
+```python
+outputs[:2]
+```
+
+will return the tuple `(outputs.loss, outputs.logits)` for instance.
+
+When considering our `outputs` object as dictionary, it only considers the attributes that don't have `None`
+values. Here for instance, it has two keys that are `loss` and `logits`.
+
+We document here the generic model outputs that are used by more than one model type. Specific output types are
+documented on their corresponding model page.
