The ResNet paper proposes a novel training procedure and boosts ResNet-50 top-1 accuracy to over 80%! The "Patches Are All You Need" paper shows that the template (using patch embeddings + isotropic model) may be playing a more important role than the transformer block itself. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✅ ResNet paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.00476 ✅ All You Need paper: https://openreview.net/forum?id=TVHS5Y4dNvM ✅ timm lib: https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models/ ✅ My transformer implementation: https://github.com/gordicaleksa/pytorch-original-transformer ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⌚️ Timetable: 00:00 Intro 00:50 Paper 1: high-level overview 02:50 What caused the accuracy boost? 05:45 Data augmentations explained 07:05 Regularization explained 08:55 Optimizers explained 09:50 Experiments 12:50 Inherent result variance 13:55 Training procedure generalization to other datasets 15:10 Making wrong conclusions is easy 16:30 Paper 2: high-level overview 17:35 Architecture explained 22:25 A note on paper length 23:05 My thoughts 24:05 Single tweet implementation ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 💰 BECOME A PATREON OF THE AI EPIPHANY ❤️ If these videos, GitHub projects, and blogs help you, consider helping me out by supporting me on Patreon!
