ConvNeXT (base-sized model)
ConvNeXT model trained on ImageNet-22k at resolution 224x224. It was introduced in the paper A ConvNet for the 2020s by Liu et al. and first released in this repository.
Disclaimer: The team releasing ConvNeXT did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.
Model description
ConvNeXT is a pure convolutional model (ConvNet), inspired by the design of Vision Transformers, that claims to outperform them. The authors started from a ResNet and "modernized" its design by taking the Swin Transformer as inspiration.
Intended uses & limitations
You can use the raw model for image classification. See the model hub to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.
How to use
Here is how to use this model to classify an image of the COCO 2017 dataset into one of the 1,000 ImageNet classes:
from transformers import ConvNextImageProcessor, ConvNextForImageClassification
import torch
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("huggingface/cats-image")
image = dataset["test"]["image"][0]
processor = ConvNextImageProcessor.from_pretrained("facebook/convnext-base-224-22k")
model = ConvNextForImageClassification.from_pretrained("facebook/convnext-base-224-22k")
inputs = processor(image, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
logits = model(**inputs).logits
# model predicts one of the 22k ImageNet classes
predicted_label = logits.argmax(-1).item()
print(model.config.id2label[predicted_label]),
