ViTMatte

##
Overview

The ViTMatte model was proposed in Boosting Image Matting with Pretrained Plain Vision Transformers by Jingfeng Yao, Xinggang Wang, Shusheng Yang, Baoyuan Wang. ViTMatte leverages plain Vision Transformers for the task of image matting, which is the process of accurately estimating the foreground object in images and videos.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

Recently, plain vision Transformers (ViTs) have shown impressive performance on various computer vision tasks, thanks to their strong modeling capacity and large-scale pretraining. However, they have not yet conquered the problem of image matting. We hypothesize that image matting could also be boosted by ViTs and present a new efficient and robust ViT-based matting system, named ViTMatte. Our method utilizes (i) a hybrid attention mechanism combined with a convolution neck to help ViTs achieve an excellent performance-computation trade-off in matting tasks. (ii) Additionally, we introduce the detail capture module, which just consists of simple lightweight convolutions to complement the detailed information required by matting. To the best of our knowledge, ViTMatte is the first work to unleash the potential of ViT on image matting with concise adaptation. It inherits many superior properties from ViT to matting, including various pretraining strategies, concise architecture design, and flexible inference strategies. We evaluate ViTMatte on Composition-1k and Distinctions-646, the most commonly used benchmark for image matting, our method achieves state-of-the-art performance and outperforms prior matting works by a large margin.

VitMatteConfig

class transformers.VitMatteConfig

< source >

( backbone_config: PretrainedConfig = None backbone = None use_pretrained_backbone = False use_timm_backbone = False backbone_kwargs = None hidden_size: int = 384 batch_norm_eps: float = 1e-05 initializer_range: float = 0.02 convstream_hidden_sizes: List = [48, 96, 192] fusion_hidden_sizes: List = [256, 128, 64, 32] **kwargs )

Parameters

- backbone_config (`PretrainedConfig` or `dict`, optional, defaults to `VitDetConfig()`) — The configuration of the backbone model.
- backbone (`str`, optional) — Name of backbone to use when `backbone_config` is `None`. If `use_pretrained_backbone` is `True`, this will load the corresponding pretrained weights from the timm or transformers library. If `use_pretrained_backbone` is `False`, this loads the backbone’s config and uses that to initialize the backbone with random weights.
- use_pretrained_backbone (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether to use pretrained weights for the backbone.
- use_timm_backbone (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether to load `backbone` from the timm library. If `False`, the backbone is loaded from the transformers library.
- backbone_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — Keyword arguments to be passed to AutoBackbone when loading from a checkpoint e.g. `{'out_indices': (0, 1, 2, 3)}`. Cannot be specified if `backbone_config` is set.
- hidden_size (`int`, optional, defaults to 384) — The number of input channels of the decoder.
- batch_norm_eps (`float`, optional, defaults to 1e-05) — The epsilon used by the batch norm layers.
- initializer_range (`float`, optional, defaults to 0.02) — The standard deviation of the truncated_normal_initializer for initializing all weight matrices.
- convstream_hidden_sizes (`List[int]`, optional, defaults to `[48, 96, 192]`) — The output channels of the ConvStream module.
- fusion_hidden_sizes (`List[int]`, optional, defaults to `[256, 128, 64, 32]`) — The output channels of the Fusion blocks.

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of VitMatteForImageMatting. It is used to instantiate a ViTMatte 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 ViTMatte hustvl/vitmatte-small-composition-1k 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 VitMatteConfig, VitMatteForImageMatting

    >>> # Initializing a ViTMatte hustvl/vitmatte-small-composition-1k style configuration
    >>> configuration = VitMatteConfig()

    >>> # Initializing a model (with random weights) from the hustvl/vitmatte-small-composition-1k style configuration
    >>> model = VitMatteForImageMatting(configuration)

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

Parameters

- pixel_values (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, height, width)`) — Pixel values. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it. Pixel values can be obtained using AutoImageProcessor. See VitMatteImageProcessor.call() for details.

- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers of the backbone. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- labels (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, height, width)`, optional) — Ground truth image matting for computing the loss.

Returns

`transformers.models.vitmatte.modeling_vitmatte.ImageMattingOutput` or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A `transformers.models.vitmatte.modeling_vitmatte.ImageMattingOutput` or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (VitMatteConfig) and inputs.

- loss (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, optional, returned when `labels` is provided) — Loss.

- alphas (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, height, width)`) — Estimated alpha values.

- hidden_states (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each stage) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`. Hidden-states (also called feature maps) of the model at the output of each stage.

- attentions (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, patch_size, sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The VitMatteForImageMatting forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

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.
