ViTMSN

##
Overview

The ViTMSN model was proposed in Masked Siamese Networks for Label-Efficient Learning by Mahmoud Assran, Mathilde Caron, Ishan Misra, Piotr Bojanowski, Florian Bordes, Pascal Vincent, Armand Joulin, Michael Rabbat, Nicolas Ballas. The paper presents a joint-embedding architecture to match the prototypes of masked patches with that of the unmasked patches. With this setup, their method yields excellent performance in the low-shot and extreme low-shot regimes.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

We propose Masked Siamese Networks (MSN), a self-supervised learning framework for learning image representations. Our approach matches the representation of an image view containing randomly masked patches to the representation of the original unmasked image. This self-supervised pre-training strategy is particularly scalable when applied to Vision Transformers since only the unmasked patches are processed by the network. As a result, MSNs improve the scalability of joint-embedding architectures, while producing representations of a high semantic level that perform competitively on low-shot image classification. For instance, on ImageNet-1K, with only 5,000 annotated images, our base MSN model achieves 72.4% top-1 accuracy, and with 1% of ImageNet-1K labels, we achieve 75.7% top-1 accuracy, setting a new state-of-the-art for self-supervised learning on this benchmark.

Usage tips

- MSN (masked siamese networks) is a method for self-supervised pre-training of Vision Transformers (ViTs). The pre-training objective is to match the prototypes assigned to the unmasked views of the images to that of the masked views of the same images.
- The authors have only released pre-trained weights of the backbone (ImageNet-1k pre-training). So, to use that on your own image classification dataset, use the ViTMSNForImageClassification class which is initialized from ViTMSNModel. Follow this notebook for a detailed tutorial on fine-tuning.
- MSN is particularly useful in the low-shot and extreme low-shot regimes. Notably, it achieves 75.7% top-1 accuracy with only 1% of ImageNet-1K labels when fine-tuned.

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a ViTMSNModel. It is used to instantiate an ViT MSN 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 ViT facebook/vit_msn_base 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 ViTMSNModel, ViTMSNConfig

    >>> # Initializing a ViT MSN vit-msn-base style configuration
    >>> configuration = ViTConfig()

    >>> # Initializing a model from the vit-msn-base style configuration
    >>> model = ViTMSNModel(configuration)

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

class transformers.ViTMSNModel

( config: ViTMSNConfig use_mask_token: bool = False )

Parameters

- config (ViTMSNConfig) — 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 ViTMSN Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top. This model is 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.
