PyTorch implementation for EsViT (accepted in ICLR, 2022), built with two techniques:

• A multi-stage Transformer architecture. Three multi-stage Transformer variants are implemented under the folder models.
• A non-contrastive region-level matching pre-train task. The region-level matching task is implemented in function DDINOLoss(nn.Module) (Line 648) in main_esvit.py. Please use --use_dense_prediction True, otherwise only the view-level task is used.

• [08/19/2022] Organizing ECCV Workshop Computer Vision in the Wild (CVinW), where two challenges are hosted to evaluate the zero-shot, few-shot and full-shot performance of pre-trained vision models in downstream tasks:
  • ``Image Classification in the Wild (ICinW)'' Challenge evaluates on 20 image classification tasks.
  • ``Object Detection in the Wild (ODinW)'' Challenge evaluates on 35 object detection tasks.

• [06/19/2022] Released the evaluation benchmark used in EsVIT. It contains 20 downstream image classification tasks. [ELEVATER Benchmark] [Toolkit] [Paper]

You can download the full checkpoint (trained with both view-level and region-level tasks, batch size=512 and ImageNet-1K.), which contains backbone and projection head weights for both student and teacher networks.

• EsViT (Swin) with network configurations of increased model capacities, pre-trained with both view-level and region-level tasks. ResNet-50 trained with both tasks is shown as a reference.

• EsViT with view-level task only

• EsViT (Swin-T, W=7) with different pre-train datasets (view-level task only)

• EsViT with more multi-stage vision Transformer architectures, pre-trained with View-level and Region-level tasks.

To train on 1 node with 16 GPUs for Swin-T model size:

PROJ_PATH=your_esvit_project_path
DATA_PATH=$PROJ_PATH/project/data/imagenet

OUT_PATH=$PROJ_PATH/output/esvit_exp/ssl/swin_tiny_imagenet/
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=16 main_esvit.py --arch swin_tiny --data_path $DATA_PATH/train --output_dir $OUT_PATH --batch_size_per_gpu 32 --epochs 300 --teacher_temp 0.07 --warmup_epochs 10 --warmup_teacher_temp_epochs 30 --norm_last_layer false --use_dense_prediction True --cfg experiments/imagenet/swin/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.yaml 

The main training script is main_esvit.py and conducts the training loop, taking the following options (among others) as arguments:

• --use_dense_prediction: whether or not to use the region matching task in pre-training
• --arch: switch between different sparse self-attention in the multi-stage Transformer architecture. Example architecture choices for EsViT training include [swin_tiny, swin_small, swin_base, swin_large,cvt_tiny, vil_2262]. The configuration files should be adjusted accrodingly, we provide example below. One may specify the network configuration by editing the YAML file under experiments/imagenet/*/*.yaml. The default window size=7; To consider a multi-stage architecture with window size=14, please choose yaml files with window14 in filenames.

To train a supervised linear classifier on frozen weights on a single node with 4 gpus, run eval_linear.py. To train a k-NN classifier on frozen weights on a single node with 4 gpus, run eval_knn.py. Please specify --arch, --cfg and --pretrained_weights to choose a pre-trained checkpoint. If you want to evaluate the last checkpoint of EsViT with Swin-T, you can run for example:

You can analyze the learned models by running python run_analysis.py. One example to analyze EsViT (Swin-T) is shown.

For an invidiual image (with path --image_path $IMG_PATH), we visualize the attention maps and correspondence of the last layer:

python run_analysis.py --arch swin_tiny --image_path $IMG_PATH --output_dir $OUT_PATH --pretrained_weights $CKPT_PATH --learning ssl --seed $SEED --cfg experiments/imagenet/swin/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.yaml --vis_attention True --vis_correspondence True MODEL.NUM_CLASSES 0 

For an image dataset (with path --data_path $DATA_PATH), we quantatively measure the correspondence:

python run_analysis.py --arch swin_tiny --data_path $DATA_PATH --output_dir $OUT_PATH --pretrained_weights $CKPT_PATH --learning ssl --seed $SEED --cfg experiments/imagenet/swin/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.yaml  --measure_correspondence True MODEL.NUM_CLASSES 0
