Self-Attention has become prevalent in computer vision models. Inspired by fully connected Conditional Random Fields (CRFs), we decompose it into local and context terms. They correspond to the unary and binary terms in CRF and are implemented by attention mechanisms with projection matrices. We observe that the unary terms only make small contributions to the outputs, and meanwhile standard CNNs that rely solely on the unary terms achieve great performances on a variety of tasks. Therefore, we propose Locally Enhanced Self-Attention (LESA), which enhances the unary term by incorporating it with convolutions, and utilizes a fusion module to dynamically couple the unary and binary operations. In our experiments, we replace the self-attention modules with LESA. The results on ImageNet and COCO show the superiority of LESA over convolution and self-attention baselines for the tasks of image recognition, object detection, and instance segmentation. The code is made publicly available.

While image captioning has progressed rapidly, existing works focus mainly on describing single images. In this paper, we introduce a new task, context-aware group captioning, which aims to describe a group of target images in the context of another
group of related reference images. Context-aware group captioning requires not only summarizing information from both the target and reference image group but also contrasting between them. To solve this problem, we propose a framework combining self-attention mechanism with contrastive feature construction to effectively summarize common information from each image group while capturing discriminative information between them. To build the dataset for this task, we propose to group the images and generate the group captions based on single image captions using scene graphs matching. Our datasets are constructed on top of the public Conceptual Captions dataset and our new Stock Captions dataset. Experiments on the two datasets show the effectiveness of our method on this new task. Related Datasets and code are released at https://lizw14.github.io/project/groupcap .
Transformers have demonstrated great potential in computer vision tasks. To avoid dense computations of self-attentions in high-resolution visual data, some recent Transformer models adopt a hierarchical design, where self-attentions are only compute
d within local windows. This design significantly improves the efficiency but lacks global feature reasoning in early stages. In this work, we design a multi-path structure of the Transformer, which enables local-to-global reasoning at multiple granularities in each stage. The proposed framework is computationally efficient and highly effective. With a marginal increasement in computational overhead, our model achieves notable improvements in both image classification and semantic segmentation.

In this work, we propose a novel methodology for self-supervised learning for generating global and local attention-aware visual features. Our approach is based on training a model to differentiate between specific image transformations of an input s
ample and the patched images. Utilizing this approach, the proposed method is able to outperform the previous best competitor by 1.03% on the Tiny-ImageNet dataset and by 2.32% on the STL-10 dataset. Furthermore, our approach outperforms the fully-supervised learning method on the STL-10 dataset. Experimental results and visualizations show the capability of successfully learning global and local attention-aware visual representations.
We developed a new and computationally simple local block-wise self attention based normal structures segmentation approach applied to head and neck computed tomography (CT) images. Our method uses the insight that normal organs exhibit regularity in
their spatial location and inter-relation within images, which can be leveraged to simplify the computations required to aggregate feature information. We accomplish this by using local self attention blocks that pass information between each other to derive the attention map. We show that adding additional attention layers increases the contextual field and captures focused attention from relevant structures. We developed our approach using U-net and compared it against multiple state-of-the-art self attention methods. All models were trained on 48 internal headneck CT scans and tested on 48 CT scans from the external public domain database of computational anatomy dataset. Our method achieved the highest Dice similarity coefficient segmentation accuracy of 0.85$pm$0.04, 0.86$pm$0.04 for left and right parotid glands, 0.79$pm$0.07 and 0.77$pm$0.05 for left and right submandibular glands, 0.93$pm$0.01 for mandible and 0.88$pm$0.02 for the brain stem with the lowest increase of 66.7% computing time per image and 0.15% increase in model parameters compared with standard U-net. The best state-of-the-art method called point-wise spatial attention, achieved textcolor{black}{comparable accuracy but with 516.7% increase in computing time and 8.14% increase in parameters compared with standard U-net.} Finally, we performed ablation tests and studied the impact of attention block size, overlap of the attention blocks, additional attention layers, and attention block placement on segmentation performance.
Self-attention has the promise of improving computer vision systems due to parameter-independent scaling of receptive fields and content-dependent interactions, in contrast to parameter-dependent scaling and content-independent interactions of convol
utions. Self-attention models have recently been shown to have encouraging improvements on accuracy-parameter trade-offs compared to baseline convolutional models such as ResNet-50. In this work, we aim to develop self-attention models that can outperform not just the canonical baseline models, but even the high-performing convolutional models. We propose two extensions to self-attention that, in conjunction with a more efficient implementation of self-attention, improve the speed, memory usage, and accuracy of these models. We leverage these improvements to develop a new self-attention model family, HaloNets, which reach state-of-the-art accuracies on the parameter-limited setting of the ImageNet classification benchmark. In preliminary transfer learning experiments, we find that HaloNet models outperform much larger models and have better inference performance. On harder tasks such as object detection and instance segmentation, our simple local self-attention and convolutional hybrids show improvements over very strong baselines. These results mark another step in demonstrating the efficacy of self-attention models on settings traditionally dominated by convolutional models.
