What is swin-base-patch4-window7-224?

Swin Transformer is a state-of-the-art vision transformer model that introduces a hierarchical architecture using shifted windows. This base variant processes images at 224x224 resolution and was trained on ImageNet-1k dataset. The model's unique architecture enables efficient processing of visual information through local self-attention computation.

Implementation Details

The model employs a hierarchical feature transformation approach where image patches are progressively merged in deeper layers. It uses shifted windows to enable cross-window connections while maintaining linear computational complexity relative to image size. The patch size is 4x4 pixels with a window size of 7x7.

  • Hierarchical feature map construction
  • Linear computational complexity
  • Shifted window-based self-attention mechanism
  • Compatible with both PyTorch and TensorFlow frameworks

Core Capabilities

  • Image classification across 1000 ImageNet classes
  • Efficient processing of high-resolution images
  • Serves as a backbone for dense recognition tasks
  • Supports both classification and dense prediction tasks
