# EfficientFormer

## EfficientFormer

### Overview

The EfficientFormer model was proposed in [EfficientFormer: Vision Transformers at MobileNet Speed](https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.01191) by Yanyu Li, Geng Yuan, Yang Wen, Eric Hu, Georgios Evangelidis, Sergey Tulyakov, Yanzhi Wang, Jian Ren. EfficientFormer proposes a dimension-consistent pure transformer that can be run on mobile devices for dense prediction tasks like image classification, object detection and semantic segmentation.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

_Vision Transformers (ViT) have shown rapid progress in computer vision tasks, achieving promising results on various benchmarks. However, due to the massive number of parameters and model design, e.g., attention mechanism, ViT-based models are generally times slower than lightweight convolutional networks. Therefore, the deployment of ViT for real-time applications is particularly challenging, especially on resource-constrained hardware such as mobile devices. Recent efforts try to reduce the computation complexity of ViT through network architecture search or hybrid design with MobileNet block, yet the inference speed is still unsatisfactory. This leads to an important question: can transformers run as fast as MobileNet while obtaining high performance? To answer this, we first revisit the network architecture and operators used in ViT-based models and identify inefficient designs. Then we introduce a dimension-consistent pure transformer (without MobileNet blocks) as a design paradigm. Finally, we perform latency-driven slimming to get a series of final models dubbed EfficientFormer. Extensive experiments show the superiority of EfficientFormer in performance and speed on mobile devices. Our fastest model, EfficientFormer-L1, achieves 79.2% top-1 accuracy on ImageNet-1K with only 1.6 ms inference latency on iPhone 12 (compiled with CoreML), which { runs as fast as MobileNetV2×1.4 (1.6 ms, 74.7% top-1),} and our largest model, EfficientFormer-L7, obtains 83.3% accuracy with only 7.0 ms latency. Our work proves that properly designed transformers can reach extremely low latency on mobile devices while maintaining high performance._

This model was contributed by [novice03](https://huggingface.co/novice03) and [Bearnardd](https://huggingface.co/Bearnardd). The original code can be found [here](https://github.com/snap-research/EfficientFormer). The TensorFlow version of this model was added by [D-Roberts](https://huggingface.co/D-Roberts).

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of an [EfficientFormerModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/efficientformer#transformers.EfficientFormerModel). It is used to instantiate an EfficientFormer model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the EfficientFormer [snap-research/efficientformer-l1](https://huggingface.co/snap-research/efficientformer-l1) architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from [PretrainedConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from [PretrainedConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) for more information.

( pixel\_values: typing.Optional\[torch.Tensor] = Noneoutput\_attentions: typing.Optional\[bool] = Noneoutput\_hidden\_states: typing.Optional\[bool] = Nonereturn\_dict: typing.Optional\[bool] = None ) → `transformers.models.efficientformer.modeling_efficientformer.EfficientFormerForImageClassificationWithTeacherOutput` or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

Parameters

* **pixel\_values** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, height, width)`) — Pixel values. Pixel values can be obtained using [ViTImageProcessor](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vit#transformers.ViTImageProcessor). See [ViTImageProcessor.preprocess()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vit#transformers.ViTImageProcessor.preprocess) for details.
* **output\_attentions** (`bool`, _optional_) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
* **output\_hidden\_states** (`bool`, _optional_) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
* **return\_dict** (`bool`, _optional_) — Whether or not to return a [ModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.utils.ModelOutput) instead of a plain tuple.

Returns

`transformers.models.efficientformer.modeling_efficientformer.EfficientFormerForImageClassificationWithTeacherOutput` or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A `transformers.models.efficientformer.modeling_efficientformer.EfficientFormerForImageClassificationWithTeacherOutput` or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration ([EfficientFormerConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/efficientformer#transformers.EfficientFormerConfig)) and inputs.

* **logits** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, config.num_labels)`) — Prediction scores as the average of the cls\_logits and distillation logits.
* **cls\_logits** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, config.num_labels)`) — Prediction scores of the classification head (i.e. the linear layer on top of the final hidden state of the class token).
* **distillation\_logits** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, config.num_labels)`) — Prediction scores of the distillation head (i.e. the linear layer on top of the final hidden state of the distillation token).
* **hidden\_states** (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, _optional_, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

The [EfficientFormerForImageClassificationWithTeacher](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/efficientformer#transformers.EfficientFormerForImageClassificationWithTeacher) forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.
