MLP-Mixer-Pytorch

PyTorch implementation of MLP-Mixer: An all-MLP Architecture for Vision with the function of loading official ImageNet pre-trained parameters.

Usage

import torch
import numpy as np
from mlp_mixer import MlpMixer

pretrain_model='./pretrain_models/imagenet21k_Mixer-B_16.npz'

model = MlpMixer(num_classes=10, 
                 num_blocks=12, 
                 patch_size=16, 
                 hidden_dim=768, 
                 tokens_mlp_dim=384, 
                 channels_mlp_dim=3072, 
                 image_size=224
                 )

# load official ImageNet pre-trained model:
model.load_from(np.load(pretrain_model))
print ('Finish loading the pre-trained model!')

num_param = sum(p.numel() for p in model.parameters()) / 1e6
print ('Total params.: %f M'%num_param)

pred = model(img)

Fine-tuning

Download the official pre-trained models at https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/mixer_models/.

Hypyer-parameters setting for better fine-tuning:

optim = torch.optim.SGD(param_list, 
                        lr=5e-4, 
                        weight_decay=1e-7,
                        momentum=0.9, 
                        nesterov=True
                        )
lr_schdlr = WarmupCosineLrScheduler(optim, 
                                    n_iters_all, 
                                    warmup_iter=0
                                    )

Using the pre-trained model to fine-tune MLP-Mixer can obtain remarkable improvements (e.g., +10% accuracy on a small dataset).

Note that we can also change the patch_size (e.g., patch_size=8) for inputs with different resolutions, but smaller patch_size may not always bring performance improvements.
