* Test with PyTorch 1.7 and fix a small top-n metric view vs reshape issue.
* Convert newly added 224x224 Vision Transformer weights from official JAX repo. 81.8 top-1 for B/16, 83.1 L/16.
* Support PyTorch 1.7 optimized, native SiLU (aka Swish) activation. Add mapping to 'silu' name, custom swish will eventually be deprecated.
* Fix regression for loading pretrained classifier via direct model entrypoint functions. Didn't impact create_model() factory usage.
* PyPi release @ 0.3.0 version!
### Oct 26, 2020
* Update Vision Transformer models to be compatible with official code release at https://github.com/google-research/vision_transformer
* Add Vision Transformer weights (ImageNet-21k pretrain) for 384x384 base and large models converted from official jax impl
* ViT-B/16 - 84.2
* ViT-B/32 - 81.7
* ViT-L/16 - 85.2
* ViT-L/32 - 81.5
### Oct 21, 2020
* Weights added for Vision Transformer (ViT) models. 77.86 top-1 for 'small' and 79.35 for 'base'. Thanks to [Christof](https://www.kaggle.com/christofhenkel) for training the base model w/ lots of GPUs.
### Oct 13, 2020
* Initial impl of Vision Transformer models. Both patch and hybrid (CNN backbone) variants. Currently trying to train...
* Adafactor and AdaHessian (FP32 only, no AMP) optimizers
* EdgeTPU-M (`efficientnet_em`) model trained in PyTorch, 79.3 top-1
* Pip release, doc updates pending a few more changes...
* Support for native Torch AMP and channels_last memory format added to train/validate scripts (`--channels-last`, `--native-amp` vs `--apex-amp`)
* Models tested with channels_last on latest NGC 20.08 container. AdaptiveAvgPool in attn layers changed to mean((2,3)) to work around bug with NHWC kernel.
* All models support the `features_only=True` argument for `create_model` call to return a network that extracts features from the deepest layer at each stride.
* DenseNet models updated with memory efficient addition from torchvision (fixed a bug), blur pooling and deep stem additions
* VoVNet V1 and V2 models added, 39 V2 variant (ese_vovnet_39b) trained to 79.3 top-1
* Activation factory added along with new activations:
* select act at model creation time for more flexibility in using activations compatible with scripting or tracing (ONNX export)
* hard_mish (experimental) added with memory-efficient grad, along with ME hard_swish
* context mgr for setting exportable/scriptable/no_jit states
* Norm + Activation combo layers added with initial trial support in DenseNet and VoVNet along with impl of EvoNorm and InplaceAbn wrapper that fit the interface
* Torchscript works for all but two of the model types as long as using Pytorch 1.5+, tests added for this
* Some import cleanup and classifier reset changes, all models will have classifier reset to nn.Identity on reset_classifer(0) call
* Prep for 0.1.28 pip release
### May 12, 2020
* Add ResNeSt models (code adapted from https://github.com/zhanghang1989/ResNeSt, paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.08955))
### May 3, 2020
* Pruned EfficientNet B1, B2, and B3 (https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.08258) contributed by [Yonathan Aflalo](https://github.com/yoniaflalo)
### May 1, 2020
* Merged a number of execellent contributions in the ResNet model family over the past month
* BlurPool2D and resnetblur models initiated by [Chris Ha](https://github.com/VRandme), I trained resnetblur50 to 79.3.
* TResNet models and SpaceToDepth, AntiAliasDownsampleLayer layers by [mrT23](https://github.com/mrT23)
* ecaresnet (50d, 101d, light) models and two pruned variants using pruning as per (https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.08258) by [Yonathan Aflalo](https://github.com/yoniaflalo)
* 200 pretrained models in total now with updated results csv in results folder
