# Dilated Neighborhood Attention Transformer
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
DiNAT was proposed in [Dilated Neighborhood Attention Transformer](https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.15001)
|
|
by Ali Hassani and Humphrey Shi.
|
|
|
|
It extends [NAT](nat) by adding a Dilated Neighborhood Attention pattern to capture global context,
|
|
and shows significant performance improvements over it.
|
|
|
|
The abstract from the paper is the following:
|
|
|
|
*Transformers are quickly becoming one of the most heavily applied deep learning architectures across modalities,
|
|
domains, and tasks. In vision, on top of ongoing efforts into plain transformers, hierarchical transformers have
|
|
also gained significant attention, thanks to their performance and easy integration into existing frameworks.
|
|
These models typically employ localized attention mechanisms, such as the sliding-window Neighborhood Attention (NA)
|
|
or Swin Transformer's Shifted Window Self Attention. While effective at reducing self attention's quadratic complexity,
|
|
local attention weakens two of the most desirable properties of self attention: long range inter-dependency modeling,
|
|
and global receptive field. In this paper, we introduce Dilated Neighborhood Attention (DiNA), a natural, flexible and
|
|
efficient extension to NA that can capture more global context and expand receptive fields exponentially at no
|
|
additional cost. NA's local attention and DiNA's sparse global attention complement each other, and therefore we
|
|
introduce Dilated Neighborhood Attention Transformer (DiNAT), a new hierarchical vision transformer built upon both.
|
|
DiNAT variants enjoy significant improvements over strong baselines such as NAT, Swin, and ConvNeXt.
|
|
Our large model is faster and ahead of its Swin counterpart by 1.5% box AP in COCO object detection,
|
|
1.3% mask AP in COCO instance segmentation, and 1.1% mIoU in ADE20K semantic segmentation.
|
|
Paired with new frameworks, our large variant is the new state of the art panoptic segmentation model on COCO (58.2 PQ)
|
|
and ADE20K (48.5 PQ), and instance segmentation model on Cityscapes (44.5 AP) and ADE20K (35.4 AP) (no extra data).
|
|
It also matches the state of the art specialized semantic segmentation models on ADE20K (58.2 mIoU),
|
|
and ranks second on Cityscapes (84.5 mIoU) (no extra data). *

The original code can be found [here](https://github.com/SHI-Labs/Neighborhood-Attention-Transformer).

|
|
|
## Usage tips
|
|
|
|
DiNAT can be used as a *backbone*. When `output_hidden_states = True`,
|
|
it will output both `hidden_states` and `reshaped_hidden_states`. The `reshaped_hidden_states` have a shape of `(batch, num_channels, height, width)` rather than `(batch_size, height, width, num_channels)`.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
- DiNAT depends on [NATTEN](https://github.com/SHI-Labs/NATTEN/)'s implementation of Neighborhood Attention and Dilated Neighborhood Attention.
|
|
You can install it with pre-built wheels for Linux by referring to [shi-labs.com/natten](https://shi-labs.com/natten), or build on your system by running `pip install natten`.
|
|
Note that the latter will likely take time to compile. NATTEN does not support Windows devices yet.
|
|
- Patch size of 4 is only supported at the moment.
