Overview

DynamicViT: Efficient Vision Transformers with Dynamic Token Sparsification

Created by Yongming Rao, Wenliang Zhao, Benlin Liu, Jiwen Lu, Jie Zhou, Cho-Jui Hsieh

This repository contains PyTorch implementation for DynamicViT.

We introduce a dynamic token sparsification framework to prune redundant tokens in vision transformers progressively and dynamically based on the input:

Our code is based on pytorch-image-models, DeiT and LV-ViT

Model Zoo

We provide our DynamicViT models pretrained on ImageNet:

Usage

Requirements

torch>=1.7.0
torchvision>=0.8.1
timm==0.4.5

Data preparation: download and extract ImageNet images from http://image-net.org/. The directory structure should be

Model preparation: download pre-trained DeiT and LV-ViT models for training DynamicViT:

sh download_pretrain.sh

Demo

We provide a Jupyter notebook where you can run the visualization of DynamicViT.

To run the demo, you need to install matplotlib.

Evaluation

To evaluate a pre-trained DynamicViT model on ImageNet val with a single GPU, run:

python infer.py --data-path /path/to/ILSVRC2012/ --arch arch_name --model-path /path/to/model --base_rate 0.7

Training

To train DynamicViT models on ImageNet, run:

DeiT-small

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env main_dynamic_vit.py  --output_dir logs/dynamic-vit_deit-small --arch deit_small --input-size 224 --batch-size 96 --data-path /path/to/ILSVRC2012/ --epochs 30 --dist-eval --distill --base_rate 0.7

LV-ViT-S

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env main_dynamic_vit.py  --output_dir logs/dynamic-vit_lvvit-s --arch lvvit_s --input-size 224 --batch-size 64 --data-path /path/to/ILSVRC2012/ --epochs 30 --dist-eval --distill --base_rate 0.7

LV-ViT-M

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env main_dynamic_vit.py  --output_dir logs/dynamic-vit_lvvit-m --arch lvvit_m --input-size 224 --batch-size 48 --data-path /path/to/ILSVRC2012/ --epochs 30 --dist-eval --distill --base_rate 0.7

You can train models with different keeping ratio by adjusting base_rate. DynamicViT can also achieve comparable performance with only 15 epochs training (around 0.1% lower accuracy).
