Initial commits:

Pretrained models on ImageNet-1K (Swin-T-IN1K, Swin-S-IN1K, Swin-B-IN1K) and ImageNet-22K (Swin-B-IN22K, Swin-L-IN22K) are provided.
The supported code and models for ImageNet-1K image classification, COCO object detection and ADE20K semantic segmentation are provided.
The cuda kernel implementation for the local relation layer is provided in branch LR-Net.

Introduction

Swin Transformer (the name Swin stands for Shifted window) is initially described in arxiv, which capably serves as a general-purpose backbone for computer vision. It is basically a hierarchical Transformer whose representation is computed with shifted windows. The shifted windowing scheme brings greater efficiency by limiting self-attention computation to non-overlapping local windows while also allowing for cross-window connection.

Swin Transformer achieves strong performance on COCO object detection (58.7 box AP and 51.1 mask AP on test-dev) and ADE20K semantic segmentation (53.5 mIoU on val), surpassing previous models by a large margin.
