# SK ResNet

**SK ResNet** is a variant of a [ResNet](https://www.paperswithcode.com/method/resnet) that employs a [Selective Kernel](https://paperswithcode.com/method/selective-kernel) unit. In general, all the large kernel convolutions in the original bottleneck blocks in ResNet are replaced by the proposed [SK convolutions](https://paperswithcode.com/method/selective-kernel-convolution), enabling the network to choose appropriate receptive field sizes in an adaptive manner.

## How do I train this model?

You can follow the [timm recipe scripts](https://rwightman.github.io/pytorch-image-models/scripts/) for training a new model afresh.
