ViTMSN

Overview

The ViTMSN model was proposed in Masked Siamese Networks for Label-Efficient Learning by Mahmoud Assran, Mathilde Caron, Ishan Misra, Piotr Bojanowski, Florian Bordes, Pascal Vincent, Armand Joulin, Michael Rabbat, Nicolas Ballas. The paper presents a joint-embedding architecture to match the prototypes of masked patches with that of the unmasked patches. With this setup, their method yields excellent performance in the low-shot and extreme low-shot regimes.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

We propose Masked Siamese Networks (MSN), a self-supervised learning framework for learning image representations. Our approach matches the representation of an image view containing randomly masked patches to the representation of the original unmasked image. This self-supervised pre-training strategy is particularly scalable when applied to Vision Transformers since only the unmasked patches are processed by the network. As a result, MSNs improve the scalability of joint-embedding architectures, while producing representations of a high semantic level that perform competitively on low-shot image classification. For instance, on ImageNet-1K, with only 5,000 annotated images, our base MSN model achieves 72.4% top-1 accuracy, and with 1% of ImageNet-1K labels, we achieve 75.7% top-1 accuracy, setting a new state-of-the-art for self-supervised learning on this benchmark.

This model was contributed by sayakpaul. The original code can be found here.

Usage tips

MSN (masked siamese networks) is a method for self-supervised pre-training of Vision Transformers (ViTs). The pre-training objective is to match the prototypes assigned to the unmasked views of the images to that of the masked views of the same images.
The authors have only released pre-trained weights of the backbone (ImageNet-1k pre-training). So, to use that on your own image classification dataset, use the ViTMSNForImageClassification class which is initialized from ViTMSNModel. Follow this notebook for a detailed tutorial on fine-tuning.
MSN is particularly useful in the low-shot and extreme low-shot regimes. Notably, it achieves 75.7% top-1 accuracy with only 1% of ImageNet-1K labels when fine-tuned.

Using Scaled Dot Product Attention (SDPA)

PyTorch includes a native scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) operator as part of torch.nn.functional. This function encompasses several implementations that can be applied depending on the inputs and the hardware in use. See the official documentation or the GPU Inference page for more information.

SDPA is used by default for torch>=2.1.1 when an implementation is available, but you may also set attn_implementation="sdpa" in from_pretrained() to explicitly request SDPA to be used.

from transformers import ViTMSNForImageClassification
model = ViTMSNForImageClassification.from_pretrained("facebook/vit-msn-base", attn_implementation="sdpa", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
...

For the best speedups, we recommend loading the model in half-precision (e.g. torch.float16 or torch.bfloat16).

On a local benchmark (A100-40GB, PyTorch 2.3.0, OS Ubuntu 22.04) with float32 and facebook/vit-msn-base model, we saw the following speedups during inference.

Batch size	Average inference time (ms), eager mode	Average inference time (ms), sdpa model	Speed up, Sdpa / Eager (x)
1	7	6	1.17
2	8	6	1.33
4	8	6	1.33
8	8	6	1.33

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a ViTMSNModel. It is used to instantiate an ViT MSN model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the ViT facebook/vit_msn_base architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

>>> from transformers import ViTMSNModel, ViTMSNConfig

>>> # Initializing a ViT MSN vit-msn-base style configuration
>>> configuration = ViTConfig()

>>> # Initializing a model from the vit-msn-base style configuration
>>> model = ViTMSNModel(configuration)

>>> # Accessing the model configuration
>>> configuration = model.config

class transformers.ViTMSNModel

< source >
