huggingface/pytorch-image-models v0.1-tpu-weights

TPU VM trained weight release w/ PyTorch XLA

on GitHub

A wide range of mid-large sized models trained in PyTorch XLA on TPU VM instances. Demonstrating viability of the TPU + PyTorch combo for excellent image model results. All models trained w/ the bits_and_tpu branch of this codebase.

A big thanks to the TPU Research Cloud (https://sites.research.google/trc/about/) for the compute used in these experiments.

This set includes several novel weights, including EvoNorm-S RegNetZ (C/D timm variants) and ResNet-V2 model experiments, as well as custom pre-activation model variants of RegNet-Y (called RegNet-V) and Xception (Xception-P) models.

Many if not all of the included RegNet weights surpass original paper results by a wide margin and remain above other known results (e.g. recent torchvision updates) in ImageNet-1k validation and especially OOD test set / robustness performance and scaling to higher resolutions.
