Image quality assessment (IQA) is an important research topic for understanding and improving visual experience. The current state-of-the-art IQA methods are based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The performance of CNN-based models is often compromised by the fixed shape constraint in batch training. To accommodate this, the input images are usually resized and cropped to a fixed shape, causing image quality degradation. To address this, we design a multi-scale image quality Transformer (MUSIQ) to process native resolution images with varying sizes and aspect ratios. With a multi-scale image representation, our proposed method can capture image quality at different granularities. Furthermore, a novel hash-based 2D spatial embedding and a scale embedding is proposed to support the positional embedding in the multi-scale representation. Experimental results verify that our method can achieve state-of-the-art performance on multiple large scale IQA datasets such as PaQ-2-PiQ, SPAQ and KonIQ-10k.

Existing deep learning methods for diagnosis of gastric cancer commonly use convolutional neural network. Recently, the Visual Transformer has attracted great attention because of its performance and efficiency, but its applications are mostly in the
field of computer vision. In this paper, a multi-scale visual transformer model, referred to as GasHis-Transformer, is proposed for Gastric Histopathological Image Classification (GHIC), which enables the automatic classification of microscopic gastric images into abnormal and normal cases. The GasHis-Transformer model consists of two key modules: A global information module and a local information module to extract histopathological features effectively. In our experiments, a public hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained gastric histopathological dataset with 280 abnormal and normal images are divided into training, validation and test sets by a ratio of 1 : 1 : 2. The GasHis-Transformer model is applied to estimate precision, recall, F1-score and accuracy on the test set of gastric histopathological dataset as 98.0%, 100.0%, 96.0% and 98.0%, respectively. Furthermore, a critical study is conducted to evaluate the robustness of GasHis-Transformer, where ten different noises including four adversarial attack and six conventional image noises are added. In addition, a clinically meaningful study is executed to test the gastrointestinal cancer identification performance of GasHis-Transformer with 620 abnormal images and achieves 96.8% accuracy. Finally, a comparative study is performed to test the generalizability with both H&E and immunohistochemical stained images on a lymphoma image dataset and a breast cancer dataset, producing comparable F1-scores (85.6% and 82.8%) and accuracies (83.9% and 89.4%), respectively. In conclusion, GasHisTransformer demonstrates high classification performance and shows its significant potential in the GHIC task.
The recently developed vision transformer (ViT) has achieved promising results on image classification compared to convolutional neural networks. Inspired by this, in this paper, we study how to learn multi-scale feature representations in transforme
r models for image classification. To this end, we propose a dual-branch transformer to combine image patches (i.e., tokens in a transformer) of different sizes to produce stronger image features. Our approach processes small-patch and large-patch tokens with two separate branches of different computational complexity and these tokens are then fused purely by attention multiple times to complement each other. Furthermore, to reduce computation, we develop a simple yet effective token fusion module based on cross attention, which uses a single token for each branch as a query to exchange information with other branches. Our proposed cross-attention only requires linear time for both computational and memory complexity instead of quadratic time otherwise. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach performs better than or on par with several concurrent works on vision transformer, in addition to efficient CNN models. For example, on the ImageNet1K dataset, with some architectural changes, our approach outperforms the recent DeiT by a large margin of 2% with a small to moderate increase in FLOPs and model parameters. Our source codes and models are available at url{https://github.com/IBM/CrossViT}.
In fine-grained image recognition (FGIR), the localization and amplification of region attention is an important factor, which has been explored a lot by convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based approaches. The recently developed vision transformer
(ViT) has achieved promising results on computer vision tasks. Compared with CNNs, Image sequentialization is a brand new manner. However, ViT is limited in its receptive field size and thus lacks local attention like CNNs due to the fixed size of its patches, and is unable to generate multi-scale features to learn discriminative region attention. To facilitate the learning of discriminative region attention without box/part annotations, we use the strength of the attention weights to measure the importance of the patch tokens corresponding to the raw images. We propose the recurrent attention multi-scale transformer (RAMS-Trans), which uses the transformers self-attention to recursively learn discriminative region attention in a multi-scale manner. Specifically, at the core of our approach lies the dynamic patch proposal module (DPPM) guided region amplification to complete the integration of multi-scale image patches. The DPPM starts with the full-size image patches and iteratively scales up the region attention to generate new patches from global to local by the intensity of the attention weights generated at each scale as an indicator. Our approach requires only the attention weights that come with ViT itself and can be easily trained end-to-end. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RAMS-Trans performs better than concurrent works, in addition to efficient CNN models, achieving state-of-the-art results on three benchmark datasets.
This paper presents a new Vision Transformer (ViT) architecture Multi-Scale Vision Longformer, which significantly enhances the ViT of cite{dosovitskiy2020image} for encoding high-resolution images using two techniques. The first is the multi-scale m
odel structure, which provides image encodings at multiple scales with manageable computational cost. The second is the attention mechanism of vision Longformer, which is a variant of Longformer cite{beltagy2020longformer}, originally developed for natural language processing, and achieves a linear complexity w.r.t. the number of input tokens. A comprehensive empirical study shows that the new ViT significantly outperforms several strong baselines, including the existing ViT models and their ResNet counterparts, and the Pyramid Vision Transformer from a concurrent work cite{wang2021pyramid}, on a range of vision tasks, including image classification, object detection, and segmentation. The models and source code are released at url{https://github.com/microsoft/vision-longformer}.
Image annotation aims to annotate a given image with a variable number of class labels corresponding to diverse visual concepts. In this paper, we address two main issues in large-scale image annotation: 1) how to learn a rich feature representation
suitable for predicting a diverse set of visual concepts ranging from object, scene to abstract concept; 2) how to annotate an image with the optimal number of class labels. To address the first issue, we propose a novel multi-scale deep model for extracting rich and discriminative features capable of representing a wide range of visual concepts. Specifically, a novel two-branch deep neural network architecture is proposed which comprises a very deep main network branch and a companion feature fusion network branch designed for fusing the multi-scale features computed from the main branch. The deep model is also made multi-modal by taking noisy user-provided tags as model input to complement the image input. For tackling the second issue, we introduce a label quantity prediction auxiliary task to the main label prediction task to explicitly estimate the optimal label number for a given image. Extensive experiments are carried out on two large-scale image annotation benchmark datasets and the results show that our method significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art.
