Updates

06/03/2022

News:

  1. Added Swin-MoE, the Mixture-of-Experts variant of Swin Transformer implemented using Tutel (an optimized Mixture-of-Experts implementation). Swin-MoE is introduced in the TuTel paper.

05/12/2022

News:

  1. Pretrained models of Swin Transformer V2 on ImageNet-1K and ImageNet-22K are released.
  2. ImageNet-22K pretrained models for Swin-V1-Tiny and Swin-V2-Small are released.

03/02/2022

  1. Swin Transformer V2 and SimMIM got accepted by CVPR 2022. SimMIM is a self-supervised pre-training approach based on masked image modeling, a key technique that works out the 3-billion-parameter Swin V2 model using 40x less labelled data than that of previous billion-scale models based on JFT-3B.

02/09/2022

  1. Integrated into Huggingface Spaces 🤗 using Gradio. Try out the Web Demo Hugging Face Spaces

10/12/2021

  1. Swin Transformer received ICCV 2021 best paper award (Marr Prize).

08/09/2021

  1. Soft Teacher will appear at ICCV2021. The code will be released at GitHub Repo. Soft Teacher is an end-to-end semi-supervisd object detection method, achieving a new record on the COCO test-dev: 61.3 box AP and 53.0 mask AP.

07/03/2021

  1. Add Swin MLP, which is an adaption of Swin Transformer by replacing all multi-head self-attention (MHSA) blocks by MLP layers (more precisely it is a group linear layer). The shifted window configuration can also significantly improve the performance of vanilla MLP architectures.

06/25/2021

  1. Video Swin Transformer is released at Video-Swin-Transformer. Video Swin Transformer achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on a broad range of video recognition benchmarks, including action recognition (84.9 top-1 accuracy on Kinetics-400 and 86.1 top-1 accuracy on Kinetics-600 with ~20x less pre-training data and ~3x smaller model size) and temporal modeling (69.6 top-1 accuracy on Something-Something v2).

05/12/2021

  1. Used as a backbone for Self-Supervised Learning: Transformer-SSL

Using Swin-Transformer as the backbone for self-supervised learning enables us to evaluate the transferring performance of the learnt representations on down-stream tasks, which is missing in previous works due to the use of ViT/DeiT, which has not been well tamed for down-stream tasks.

04/12/2021

Initial commits:

  1. 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.
  2. The supported code and models for ImageNet-1K image classification, COCO object detection and ADE20K semantic segmentation are provided.
  3. 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.
