The Official PyTorch Implementation of SparK🔥 (Sparse and Hierarchical Masked Modeling)
Introduction
This is an official implementation of the paper: "Designing BERT for Convolutional Networks: Sparse and Hierarchical Masked Modeling". We'll be updating frequently these days, so you might consider star ⭐ or watch 👓 this repository to get the latest information.
In this work we designed a BERT-style pre-training framework (a.k.a. masked image modeling) for any hierarchical (multi-scale) convnets. As shown above, it gathers all unmasked patches to form a sparse image and uses sparse convolution for encoding. A dense, hierarchical decoder is applied then, to reconstruct all masked pixels. This method is general and powerful: it can be used directly on any convolutional backbones such as classical ResNets (the right) and modern ConvNeXts (left), and can bring a leap in their performance:
See our paper for more analysis, discussion, and evaluation.
Pre-train
See PRETRAIN.md for preparation and pre-training.
Fine-tune on ImageNet
After finishing the preparation in PRETRAIN.md, see downstream_imagenet for subsequent instructions.
Fine-tune ResNets on COCO
Install Detectron2
and see downstream_d2 for more details.
Fine-tune ConvNeXts on COCO
Install mmcv
and mmdetection
then see downstream_mmdet for more details.
