Vision Transformer (ViT) attains state-of-the-art performance in visual recognition, and the variant, Local Vision Transformer, makes further improvements. The major component in Local Vision Transformer, local attention, performs the attention separately over small local windows. We rephrase local attention as a channel-wise locally-connected layer and analyze it from two network regularization manners, sparse connectivity and weight sharing, as well as weight computation. Sparse connectivity: there is no connection across channels, and each position is connected to the positions within a small local window. Weight sharing: the connection weights for one position are shared across channels or within each group of channels. Dynamic weight: the connection weights are dynamically predicted according to each image instance. We point out that local attention resembles depth-wise convolution and its dynamic version in sparse connectivity. The main difference lies in weight sharing - depth-wise convolution shares connection weights (kernel weights) across spatial positions. We empirically observe that the models based on depth-wise convolution and the dynamic variant with lower computation complexity perform on-par with or sometimes slightly better than Swin Transformer, an instance of Local Vision Transformer, for ImageNet classification, COCO object detection and ADE semantic segmentation. These observations suggest that Local Vision Transformer takes advantage of two regularization forms and dynamic weight to increase the network capacity.

Point cloud-based large scale place recognition is fundamental for many applications like Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Although many models have been proposed and have achieved good performance by learning short-range local features,
long-range contextual properties have often been neglected. Moreover, the model size has also become a bottleneck for their wide applications. To overcome these challenges, we propose a super light-weight network model termed SVT-Net for large scale place recognition. Specifically, on top of the highly efficient 3D Sparse Convolution (SP-Conv), an Atom-based Sparse Voxel Transformer (ASVT) and a Cluster-based Sparse Voxel Transformer (CSVT) are proposed to learn both short-range local features and long-range contextual features in this model. Consisting of ASVT and CSVT, SVT-Net can achieve state-of-the-art on benchmark datasets in terms of both accuracy and speed with a super-light model size (0.9M). Meanwhile, two simplifi
Searching for network width is an effective way to slim deep neural networks with hardware budgets. With this aim, a one-shot supernet is usually leveraged as a performance evaluator to rank the performance wrt~different width. Nevertheless, current
methods mainly follow a manually fixed weight sharing pattern, which is limited to distinguish the performance gap of different width. In this paper, to better evaluate each width, we propose a locally free weight sharing strategy (CafeNet) accordingly. In CafeNet, weights are more freely shared, and each width is jointly indicated by its base channels and free channels, where free channels are supposed to loCAte FrEely in a local zone to better represent each width. Besides, we propose to further reduce the search space by leveraging our introduced FLOPs-sensitive bins. As a result, our CafeNet can be trained stochastically and get optimized within a min-min strategy. Extensive experiments on ImageNet, CIFAR-10, CelebA and MS COCO dataset have verified our superiority comparing to other state-of-the-art baselines. For example, our method can further boost the benchmark NAS network EfficientNet-B0 by 0.41% via searching its width more delicately.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are known to be significantly over-parametrized, and difficult to interpret, train and adapt. In this paper, we introduce a structural regularization across convolutional kernels in a CNN. In our approach, each co
nvolution kernel is first decomposed as 2D dictionary atoms linearly combined by coefficients. The widely observed correlation and redundancy in a CNN hint a common low-rank structure among the decomposed coefficients, which is here further supported by our empirical observations. We then explicitly regularize CNN kernels by enforcing decomposed coefficients to be shared across sub-structures, while leaving each sub-structure only its own dictionary atoms, a few hundreds of parameters typically, which leads to dramatic model reductions. We explore models with sharing across different sub-structures to cover a wide range of trade-offs between parameter reduction and expressiveness. Our proposed regularized network structures open the door to better interpreting, training and adapting deep models. We validate the flexibility and compatibility of our method by image classification experiments on multiple datasets and underlying network structures, and show that CNNs now maintain performance with dramatic reduction in parameters and computations, e.g., only 5% parameters are used in a ResNet-18 to achieve comparable performance. Further experiments on few-shot classification show that faster and more robust task adaptation is obtained in comparison with models with standard convolutions.
In this paper, we observe two levels of redundancies when applying vision transformers (ViT) for image recognition. First, fixing the number of tokens through the whole network produces redundant features at the spatial level. Second, the attention m
aps among different transformer layers are redundant. Based on the observations above, we propose a PSViT: a ViT with token Pooling and attention Sharing to reduce the redundancy, effectively enhancing the feature representation ability, and achieving a better speed-accuracy trade-off. Specifically, in our PSViT, token pooling can be defined as the operation that decreases the number of tokens at the spatial level. Besides, attention sharing will be built between the neighboring transformer layers for reusing the attention maps having a strong correlation among adjacent layers. Then, a compact set of the possible combinations for different token pooling and attention sharing mechanisms are constructed. Based on the proposed compact set, the number of tokens in each layer and the choices of layers sharing attention can be treated as hyper-parameters that are learned from data automatically. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can achieve up to 6.6% accuracy improvement in ImageNet classification compared with the DeiT.
We introduce a deep and light-weight transformer, DeLighT, that delivers similar or better performance than standard transformer-based models with significantly fewer parameters. DeLighT more efficiently allocates parameters both (1) within each Tran
sformer block using the DeLighT transformation, a deep and light-weight transformation, and (2) across blocks using block-wise scaling, which allows for shallower and narrower DeLighT blocks near the input and wider and deeper DeLighT blocks near the output. Overall, DeLighT networks are 2.5 to 4 times deeper than standard transformer models and yet have fewer parameters and operations. Experiments on benchmark machine translation and language modeling tasks show that DeLighT matches or improves the performance of baseline Transformers with 2 to 3 times fewer parameters on average.
