CoaT: Co-Scale Conv-Attentional Image Transformers

Introduction

This repository contains the official code and pretrained models for CoaT: Co-Scale Conv-Attentional Image Transformers. It introduces (1) a co-scale mechanism to realize fine-to-coarse, coarse-to-fine and cross-scale attention modeling and (2) an efficient conv-attention module to realize relative position encoding in the factorized attention.

Model Accuracy

Usage

The following usage is provided for the classification task using CoaT model. For the other tasks, please follow the corresponding readme, such as instance segmentation and object detection.

Environment Preparation

  1. Set up a new conda environment and activate it.

    # Create an environment with Python 3.8.
    conda create -n coat python==3.8
    conda activate coat
  2. Install required packages.

    # Install PyTorch 1.7.1 w/ CUDA 11.0.
    pip install torch==1.7.1+cu110 torchvision==0.8.2+cu110 torchaudio==0.7.2 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
    
    # Install timm 0.3.2.
    pip install timm==0.3.2
    
    # Install einops.
    pip install einops

Code and Dataset Preparation

  1. Clone the repo.

    git clone https://github.com/mlpc-ucsd/CoaT
    cd CoaT
  2. Download ImageNet dataset (ILSVRC 2012) and extract.

    # Create dataset folder.
    mkdir -p ./data/ImageNet
    
    # Download the dataset (not shown here) and copy the files (assume the download path is in $DATASET_PATH).
    cp $DATASET_PATH/ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar $DATASET_PATH/ILSVRC2012_img_val.tar $DATASET_PATH/ILSVRC2012_devkit_t12.tar.gz ./data/ImageNet
    
    # Extract the dataset.
    python -c "from torchvision.datasets import ImageNet; ImageNet('./data/ImageNet', split='train')"
    python -c "from torchvision.datasets import ImageNet; ImageNet('./data/ImageNet', split='val')"
    # After the extraction, you should observe `train` and `val` folders under ./data/ImageNet.

The following commands provide an example (CoaT-Lite Tiny) to evaluate the pre-trained checkpoint.

# Download the pretrained checkpoint.
mkdir -p ./output/pretrained
wget http://vcl.ucsd.edu/coat/pretrained/coat_lite_tiny_e88e96b0.pth -P ./output/pretrained
sha256sum ./output/pretrained/coat_lite_tiny_e88e96b0.pth  # Make sure it matches the SHA-256 hash (first 8 characters) in the table.

# Evaluate.
# Usage: bash ./scripts/eval.sh [model name] [output folder] [checkpoint path]
bash ./scripts/eval.sh coat_lite_tiny coat_lite_tiny_pretrained ./output/pretrained/coat_lite_tiny_e88e96b0.pth
# It should output results similar to "Acc@1 77.504 Acc@5 93.814" at very last.
