PyTorch Image Models

Sponsors

Thanks to the following for hardware support:

And a big thanks to all GitHub sponsors who helped with some of my costs before I joined Hugging Face.

What's New

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_rpn_224 - 82.3 @ 224, 83.1 @ 320 -- rel pos + res-post-norm, 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)

May 2, 2022

  • 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
    • vit_base_patch16_rpn_224 - 82.3 @ 224 -- rel pos + res-post-norm, 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

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

Oct 19, 2021

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!

  • Improve test coverage and classifier interface of non-conv (vision transformer and mlp) models
  • Cleanup a few classifier / flatten details for models w/ conv classifiers or early global pool
  • Please report any regressions, this PR touched quite a few models.

June 8, 2021

Feb 18, 2021

  • Add pretrained weights and model variants for NFNet-F* models from DeepMind Haiku impl.
    • Models are prefixed with dm_. They require SAME padding conv, skipinit enabled, and activation gains applied in act fn.
    • These models are big, expect to run out of GPU memory. With the GELU activiation + other options, they are roughly 1/2 the inference speed of my SiLU PyTorch optimized s variants.
    • Original model results are based on pre-processing that is not the same as all other models so you'll see different results in the results csv (once updated).
    • Matching the original pre-processing as closely as possible I get these results:
      • dm_nfnet_f6 - 86.352
      • dm_nfnet_f5 - 86.100

  • Add Adaptive Gradient Clipping (AGC) as per https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.06171. Integrated w/ PyTorch gradient clipping via mode arg that defaults to prev 'norm' mode. For backward arg compat, clip-grad arg must be specified to enable when using train.py.
    • AGC w/ default clipping factor --clip-grad .01 --clip-mode agc
    • PyTorch global norm of 1.0 (old behaviour, always norm), --clip-grad 1.0
    • PyTorch value clipping of 10, --clip-grad 10. --clip-mode value
    • AGC performance is definitely sensitive to the clipping factor. More experimentation needed to determine good values for smaller batch sizes and optimizers besides those in paper. So far I've found .001-.005 is necessary for stable RMSProp training w/ NFNet/NF-ResNet.

  • First Normalization-Free model training experiments done,
    • nf_resnet50 - 80.68 top-1 @ 288x288, 80.31 @ 256x256
    • nf_regnet_b1 - 79.30 @ 288x288, 78.75 @ 256x256
  • More model archs, incl a flexible ByobNet backbone ('Bring-your-own-blocks')
  • Refinements to normalizer layer arg handling and normalizer+act layer handling in some models
  • Default AMP mode changed to native PyTorch AMP instead of APEX. Issues not being fixed with APEX. Native works with --channels-last and --torchscript model training, APEX does not.
  • Fix a few bugs introduced since last pypi release

Feb 8, 2021

  • Add several ResNet weights with ECA attention. 26t & 50t trained @ 256, test @ 320. 269d train @ 256, fine-tune @320, test @ 352.
    • ecaresnet26t - 79.88 top-1 @ 320x320, 79.08 @ 256x256
    • ecaresnet50t - 82.35 top-1 @ 320x320, 81.52 @ 256x256
    • ecaresnet269d - 84.93 top-1 @ 352x352, 84.87 @ 320x320
  • Remove separate tiered (t) vs tiered_narrow (tn) ResNet model defs, all tn changed to t and t models removed (seresnext26t_32x4d only model w/ weights that was removed).
  • Support model default_cfgs with separate train vs test resolution test_input_size and remove extra _320 suffix ResNet model defs that were just for test.

Jan 30, 2021

  • Add initial "Normalization Free" NF-RegNet-B* and NF-ResNet model definitions based on paper

Jan 25, 2021

  • Add ResNetV2 Big Transfer (BiT) models w/ ImageNet-1k and 21k weights from https://github.com/google-research/big_transfer
  • Add official R50+ViT-B/16 hybrid models + weights from https://github.com/google-research/vision_transformer
  • ImageNet-21k ViT weights are added w/ model defs and representation layer (pre logits) support
    • NOTE: ImageNet-21k classifier heads were zero'd in original weights, they are only useful for transfer learning
  • Add model defs and weights for DeiT Vision Transformer models from https://github.com/facebookresearch/deit
  • Refactor dataset classes into ImageDataset/IterableImageDataset + dataset specific parser classes
  • Add Tensorflow-Datasets (TFDS) wrapper to allow use of TFDS image classification sets with train script
    • Ex: train.py /data/tfds --dataset tfds/oxford_iiit_pet --val-split test --model resnet50 -b 256 --amp --num-classes 37 --opt adamw --lr 3e-4 --weight-decay .001 --pretrained -j 2
  • Add improved .tar dataset parser that reads images from .tar, folder of .tar files, or .tar within .tar
    • Run validation on full ImageNet-21k directly from tar w/ BiT model: validate.py /data/fall11_whole.tar --model resnetv2_50x1_bitm_in21k --amp
  • Models in this update should be stable w/ possible exception of ViT/BiT, possibility of some regressions with train/val scripts and dataset handling

Jan 3, 2021

  • Add SE-ResNet-152D weights
    • 256x256 val, 0.94 crop top-1 - 83.75
    • 320x320 val, 1.0 crop - 84.36
  • Update results files

Introduction

PyTorch Image Models (timm) is a collection of image models, layers, utilities, optimizers, schedulers, data-loaders / augmentations, and reference training / validation scripts that aim to pull together a wide variety of SOTA models with ability to reproduce ImageNet training results.

The work of many others is present here. I've tried to make sure all source material is acknowledged via links to github, arxiv papers, etc in the README, documentation, and code docstrings. Please let me know if I missed anything.

Models

All model architecture families include variants with pretrained weights. There are specific model variants without any weights, it is NOT a bug. Help training new or better weights is always appreciated. Here are some example training hparams to get you started.

A full version of the list below with source links can be found in the documentation.

Features

Several (less common) features that I often utilize in my projects are included. Many of their additions are the reason why I maintain my own set of models, instead of using others' via PIP:

Results

Model validation results can be found in the documentation and in the results tables

Getting Started (Documentation)

My current documentation for timm covers the basics.

Getting Started with PyTorch Image Models (timm): A Practitioners Guide by Chris Hughes is an extensive blog post covering many aspects of timm in detail.

timmdocs is quickly becoming a much more comprehensive set of documentation for timm. A big thanks to Aman Arora for his efforts creating timmdocs.

paperswithcode is a good resource for browsing the models within timm.

Train, Validation, Inference Scripts

The root folder of the repository contains reference train, validation, and inference scripts that work with the included models and other features of this repository. They are adaptable for other datasets and use cases with a little hacking. See documentation for some basics and training hparams for some train examples that produce SOTA ImageNet results.

Awesome PyTorch Resources

One of the greatest assets of PyTorch is the community and their contributions. A few of my favourite resources that pair well with the models and components here are listed below.

Object Detection, Instance and Semantic Segmentation

Computer Vision / Image Augmentation

Knowledge Distillation

Metric Learning

Training / Frameworks

Licenses

Code

The code here is licensed Apache 2.0. I've taken care to make sure any third party code included or adapted has compatible (permissive) licenses such as MIT, BSD, etc. I've made an effort to avoid any GPL / LGPL conflicts. That said, it is your responsibility to ensure you comply with licenses here and conditions of any dependent licenses. Where applicable, I've linked the sources/references for various components in docstrings. If you think I've missed anything please create an issue.

Pretrained Weights

So far all of the pretrained weights available here are pretrained on ImageNet with a select few that have some additional pretraining (see extra note below). ImageNet was released for non-commercial research purposes only (https://image-net.org/download). It's not clear what the implications of that are for the use of pretrained weights from that dataset. Any models I have trained with ImageNet are done for research purposes and one should assume that the original dataset license applies to the weights. It's best to seek legal advice if you intend to use the pretrained weights in a commercial product.

Pretrained on more than ImageNet

Several weights included or references here were pretrained with proprietary datasets that I do not have access to. These include the Facebook WSL, SSL, SWSL ResNe(Xt) and the Google Noisy Student EfficientNet models. The Facebook models have an explicit non-commercial license (CC-BY-NC 4.0, https://github.com/facebookresearch/semi-supervised-ImageNet1K-models, https://github.com/facebookresearch/WSL-Images). The Google models do not appear to have any restriction beyond the Apache 2.0 license (and ImageNet concerns). In either case, you should contact Facebook or Google with any questions.
