What is swin-base-patch4-window7-224-in22k?

The Swin Transformer is an advanced vision transformer model developed by Microsoft that introduces a hierarchical architecture using shifted windows. This base variant features 109M parameters and was pre-trained on the massive ImageNet-21k dataset, containing 14 million images across 21,841 classes.

Implementation Details

This model implements a unique hierarchical feature extraction approach, processing images at 224x224 resolution using 4x4 patch sizes and 7x7 window sizes. Unlike traditional vision transformers, it maintains linear computational complexity through localized self-attention within shifted windows.

  • Hierarchical feature map construction through patch merging
  • Shifted window-based self-attention mechanism
  • Linear complexity relative to input image size
  • Supports both PyTorch and TensorFlow frameworks

Core Capabilities

  • High-performance image classification
  • Efficient processing of high-resolution images
  • Adaptable for dense prediction tasks
  • Seamless integration with modern deep learning frameworks
