July 8, 2022

More models, more fixes

  • Official research models (w/ weights) added:
  • My own models:
    • Small ResNet defs added by request with 1 block repeats for both basic and bottleneck (resnet10 and resnet14)
    • CspNet refactored with dataclass config, simplified CrossStage3 (cs3) option. These are closer to YOLO-v5+ backbone defs.
    • More relative position vit fiddling. Two srelpos (shared relative position) models trained, and a medium w/ class token.
    • Add an alternate downsample mode to EdgeNeXt and train a small model. Better than original small, but not their new USI trained weights.
  • My own model weight results (all ImageNet-1k training)
    • resnet10t - 66.5 @ 176, 68.3 @ 224
    • resnet14t - 71.3 @ 176, 72.3 @ 224
    • resnetaa50 - 80.6 @ 224 , 81.6 @ 288
    • darknet53 - 80.0 @ 256, 80.5 @ 288
    • cs3darknet_m - 77.0 @ 256, 77.6 @ 288
    • cs3darknet_focus_m - 76.7 @ 256, 77.3 @ 288
    • cs3darknet_l - 80.4 @ 256, 80.9 @ 288
    • cs3darknet_focus_l - 80.3 @ 256, 80.9 @ 288
    • vit_srelpos_small_patch16_224 - 81.1 @ 224, 82.1 @ 320
    • vit_srelpos_medium_patch16_224 - 82.3 @ 224, 83.1 @ 320
    • vit_relpos_small_patch16_cls_224 - 82.6 @ 224, 83.6 @ 320
    • edgnext_small_rw - 79.6 @ 224, 80.4 @ 320
  • cs3, darknet, and vit_*relpos weights above all trained on TPU thanks to TRC program! Rest trained on overheating GPUs.
  • Hugging Face Hub support fixes verified, demo notebook TBA
  • Pretrained weights / configs can be loaded externally (ie from local disk) w/ support for head adaptation.
  • Add support to change image extensions scanned by timm datasets/parsers. See (https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models/pull/1274#issuecomment-1178303103)
  • Default ConvNeXt LayerNorm impl to use F.layer_norm(x.permute(0, 2, 3, 1), ...).permute(0, 3, 1, 2) via LayerNorm2d in all cases.
    • a bit slower than previous custom impl on some hardware (ie Ampere w/ CL), but overall fewer regressions across wider HW / PyTorch version ranges.
    • previous impl exists as LayerNormExp2d in models/layers/norm.py
  • Numerous bug fixes
  • Currently testing for imminent PyPi 0.6.x release
  • LeViT pretraining of larger models still a WIP, they don't train well / easily without distillation. Time to add distill support (finally)?
  • ImageNet-22k weight training + finetune ongoing, work on multi-weight support (slowly) chugging along (there are a LOT of weights, sigh) ...

May 13, 2022

  • Official Swin-V2 models and weights added from (https://github.com/microsoft/Swin-Transformer). Cleaned up to support torchscript.
  • Some refactoring for existing timm Swin-V2-CR impl, will likely do a bit more to bring parts closer to official and decide whether to merge some aspects.
  • More Vision Transformer relative position / residual post-norm experiments (all trained on TPU thanks to TRC program)
    • vit_relpos_small_patch16_224 - 81.5 @ 224, 82.5 @ 320 -- rel pos, layer scale, no class token, avg pool

    • vit_relpos_medium_patch16_224 - 82.5 @ 224, 83.3 @ 320 -- rel pos, layer scale, no class token, avg pool
    • vit_relpos_base_patch16_gapcls_224 - 82.8 @ 224, 83.9 @ 320 -- rel pos, layer scale, class token, avg pool (by mistake)
  • Bring 512 dim, 8-head 'medium' ViT model variant back to life (after using in a pre DeiT 'small' model for first ViT impl back in 2020)
  • Add ViT relative position support for switching btw existing impl and some additions in official Swin-V2 impl for future trials
  • Sequencer2D impl (https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.01972), added via PR from author (https://github.com/okojoalg)

  • Vision Transformer experiments adding Relative Position (Swin-V2 log-coord) (vision_transformer_relpos.py) and Residual Post-Norm branches (from Swin-V2) (vision_transformer*.py)
    • vit_relpos_base_patch32_plus_rpn_256 - 79.5 @ 256, 80.6 @ 320 -- rel pos + extended width + res-post-norm, no class token, avg pool
    • vit_relpos_base_patch16_224 - 82.5 @ 224, 83.6 @ 320 -- rel pos, layer scale, no class token, avg pool

  • timm models are now officially supported in fast.ai! Just in time for the new Practical Deep Learning course. timmdocs documentation link updated to timm.fast.ai.
  • Two more model weights added in the TPU trained series. Some In22k pretrain still in progress.
    • seresnext101d_32x8d - 83.69 @ 224, 84.35 @ 288
    • seresnextaa101d_32x8d (anti-aliased w/ AvgPool2d) - 83.85 @ 224, 84.57 @ 288

March 21, 2022

Feb 2, 2022

  • Chris Hughes posted an exhaustive run through of timm on his blog yesterday. Well worth a read. Getting Started with PyTorch Image Models (timm): A Practitioners Guide
  • I'm currently prepping to merge the norm_norm_norm branch back to master (ver 0.6.x) in next week or so.
    • The changes are more extensive than usual and may destabilize and break some model API use (aiming for full backwards compat). So, beware pip install git+https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models installs!
    • 0.5.x releases and a 0.5.x branch will remain stable with a cherry pick or two until dust clears. Recommend sticking to pypi install for a bit if you want stable.

Jan 14, 2022

Aug 18, 2021

  • Optimizer bonanza!
    • Add LAMB and LARS optimizers, incl trust ratio clipping options. Tweaked to work properly in PyTorch XLA (tested on TPUs w/ timm bits branch)
    • Add MADGRAD from FB research w/ a few tweaks (decoupled decay option, step handling that works with PyTorch XLA)
    • Some cleanup on all optimizers and factory. No more .data, a bit more consistency, unit tests for all!
    • SGDP and AdamP still won't work with PyTorch XLA but others should (have yet to test Adabelief, Adafactor, Adahessian myself).
  • EfficientNet-V2 XL TF ported weights added, but they don't validate well in PyTorch (L is better). The pre-processing for the V2 TF training is a bit diff and the fine-tuned 21k -> 1k weights are very sensitive and less robust than the 1k weights.
  • Added PyTorch trained EfficientNet-V2 'Tiny' w/ GlobalContext attn weights. Only .1-.2 top-1 better than the SE so more of a curiosity for those interested.
