PoolFormer

##
Overview

The PoolFormer model was proposed in MetaFormer is Actually What You Need for Vision by Sea AI Labs. Instead of designing complicated token mixer to achieve SOTA performance, the target of this work is to demonstrate the competence of transformer models largely stem from the general architecture MetaFormer.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

Transformers have shown great potential in computer vision tasks. A common belief is their attention-based token mixer module contributes most to their competence. However, recent works show the attention-based module in transformers can be replaced by spatial MLPs and the resulted models still perform quite well. Based on this observation, we hypothesize that the general architecture of the transformers, instead of the specific token mixer module, is more essential to the model’s performance. To verify this, we deliberately replace the attention module in transformers with an embarrassingly simple spatial pooling operator to conduct only the most basic token mixing. Surprisingly, we observe that the derived model, termed as PoolFormer, achieves competitive performance on multiple computer vision tasks. For example, on ImageNet-1K, PoolFormer achieves 82.1% top-1 accuracy, surpassing well-tuned vision transformer/MLP-like baselines DeiT-B/ResMLP-B24 by 0.3%/1.1% accuracy with 35%/52% fewer parameters and 48%/60% fewer MACs. The effectiveness of PoolFormer verifies our hypothesis and urges us to initiate the concept of “MetaFormer”, a general architecture abstracted from transformers without specifying the token mixer. Based on the extensive experiments, we argue that MetaFormer is the key player in achieving superior results for recent transformer and MLP-like models on vision tasks. This work calls for more future research dedicated to improving MetaFormer instead of focusing on the token mixer modules. Additionally, our proposed PoolFormer could serve as a starting baseline for future MetaFormer architecture design.

The figure below illustrates the architecture of PoolFormer. Taken from the original paper.

This model was contributed by heytanay. The original code can be found here.

Usage tips

- PoolFormer has a hierarchical architecture, where instead of Attention, a simple Average Pooling layer is present. All checkpoints of the model can be found on the hub.
- One can use PoolFormerImageProcessor to prepare images for the model.
- As most models, PoolFormer comes in different sizes, the details of which can be found in the table below.

Model variant | Depths | Hidden sizes | Params (M) | ImageNet-1k Top 1
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
s12 | [2, 2, 6, 2] | [64, 128, 320, 512] | 12 | 77.2
s24 | [4, 4, 12, 4] | [64, 128, 320, 512] | 21 | 80.3
s36 | [6, 6, 18, 6] | [64, 128, 320, 512] | 31 | 81.4

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of PoolFormerModel. It is used to instantiate a PoolFormer model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the PoolFormer sail/poolformer_s12 architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import PoolFormerConfig, PoolFormerModel

    >>> # Initializing a PoolFormer sail/poolformer_s12 style configuration
    >>> configuration = PoolFormerConfig()

    >>> # Initializing a model (with random weights) from the sail/poolformer_s12 style configuration
    >>> model = PoolFormerModel(configuration)

    >>> # Accessing the model configuration
    >>> configuration = model.config

PoolFormerModel

###
class transformers.PoolFormerModel

< source >

( config )

Parameters

- config (PoolFormerModel) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare Poolformer Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.
