SegFormer

Overview

The SegFormer model was proposed in SegFormer: Simple and Efficient Design for Semantic Segmentation with Transformers by Enze Xie, Wenhai Wang, Zhiding Yu, Anima Anandkumar, Jose M. Alvarez, Ping Luo. The model consists of a hierarchical Transformer encoder and a lightweight all-MLP decode head to achieve great results on image segmentation benchmarks such as ADE20K and Cityscapes.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

We present SegFormer, a simple, efficient yet powerful semantic segmentation framework which unifies Transformers with lightweight multilayer perception (MLP) decoders. SegFormer has two appealing features: 1) SegFormer comprises a novel hierarchically structured Transformer encoder which outputs multiscale features. It does not need positional encoding, thereby avoiding the interpolation of positional codes which leads to decreased performance when the testing resolution differs from training. 2) SegFormer avoids complex decoders. The proposed MLP decoder aggregates information from different layers, and thus combining both local attention and global attention to render powerful representations. We show that this simple and lightweight design is the key to efficient segmentation on Transformers. We scale our approach up to obtain a series of models from SegFormer-B0 to SegFormer-B5, reaching significantly better performance and efficiency than previous counterparts. For example, SegFormer-B4 achieves 50.3% mIoU on ADE20K with 64M parameters, being 5x smaller and 2.2% better than the previous best method. Our best model, SegFormer-B5, achieves 84.0% mIoU on Cityscapes validation set and shows excellent zero-shot robustness on Cityscapes-C.

The figure below illustrates the architecture of SegFormer. Taken from the original paper.

This model was contributed by nielsr. The TensorFlow version of the model was contributed by sayakpaul. The original code can be found here.

Tips:

  • SegFormer consists of a hierarchical Transformer encoder, and a lightweight all-MLP decoder head. SegformerModel is the hierarchical Transformer encoder (which in the paper is also referred to as Mix Transformer or MiT). SegformerForSemanticSegmentation adds the all-MLP decoder head on top to perform semantic segmentation of images. In addition, there’s SegformerForImageClassification which can be used to - you guessed it - classify images. The authors of SegFormer first pre-trained the Transformer encoder on ImageNet-1k to classify images. Next, they throw away the classification head, and replace it by the all-MLP decode head. Next, they fine-tune the model altogether on ADE20K, Cityscapes and COCO-stuff, which are important benchmarks for semantic segmentation. All checkpoints can be found on the hub.
  • The quickest way to get started with SegFormer is by checking the example notebooks (which showcase both inference and fine-tuning on custom data). One can also check out the blog post introducing SegFormer and illustrating how it can be fine-tuned on custom data.
  • TensorFlow users should refer to this repository that shows off-the-shelf inference and fine-tuning.
  • One can also check out this interactive demo on Model Database Spaces to try out a SegFormer model on custom images.
  • SegFormer works on any input size, as it pads the input to be divisible by config.patch_sizes.
  • One can use SegformerImageProcessor to prepare images and corresponding segmentation maps for the model. Note that this image processor is fairly basic and does not include all data augmentations used in the original paper. The original preprocessing pipelines (for the ADE20k dataset for instance) can be found here. The most important preprocessing step is that images and segmentation maps are randomly cropped and padded to the same size, such as 512x512 or 640x640, after which they are normalized.
  • One additional thing to keep in mind is that one can initialize SegformerImageProcessor with reduce_labels set to True or False. In some datasets (like ADE20k), the 0 index is used in the annotated segmentation maps for background. However, ADE20k doesn’t include the β€œbackground” class in its 150 labels. Therefore, reduce_labels is used to reduce all labels by 1, and to make sure no loss is computed for the background class (i.e. it replaces 0 in the annotated maps by 255, which is the ignore_index of the loss function used by SegformerForSemanticSegmentation). However, other datasets use the 0 index as background class and include this class as part of all labels. In that case, reduce_labels should be set to False, as loss should also be computed for the background class.
  • As most models, SegFormer comes in different sizes, the details of which can be found in the table below (taken from Table 7 of the original paper).
Model variant Depths Hidden sizes Decoder hidden size Params (M) ImageNet-1k Top 1
MiT-b0 [2, 2, 2, 2] [32, 64, 160, 256] 256 3.7 70.5
MiT-b1 [2, 2, 2, 2] [64, 128, 320, 512] 256 14.0 78.7
MiT-b2 [3, 4, 6, 3] [64, 128, 320, 512] 768 25.4 81.6
MiT-b3 [3, 4, 18, 3] [64, 128, 320, 512] 768 45.2 83.1
MiT-b4 [3, 8, 27, 3] [64, 128, 320, 512] 768 62.6 83.6
MiT-b5 [3, 6, 40, 3] [64, 128, 320, 512] 768 82.0 83.8

Note that MiT in the above table refers to the Mix Transformer encoder backbone introduced in SegFormer. For SegFormer’s results on the segmentation datasets like ADE20k, refer to the paper.

  • attentions (tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned when output_attentions=True is passed or when config.output_attentions=True) β€” Tuple of torch.FloatTensor (one for each layer) of shape (batch_size, num_heads, patch_size, sequence_length).

    Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The SegformerForSemanticSegmentation 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.

>>> from PIL import Image
>>> import requests

>>> image_processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained("nvidia/segformer-b0-finetuned-ade-512-512")

( *args **kwargs )

Parameters

  • config (SegformerConfig) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare SegFormer encoder (Mix-Transformer) outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top. This model inherits from TFPreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a tf.keras.Model subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

  • pixel_values (np.ndarray, tf.Tensor, List[tf.Tensor] `Dict[str, tf.Tensor] or Dict[str, np.ndarray] and each example must have the shape (batch_size, num_channels, height, width)) — Pixel values.

Returns

transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFSemanticSegmenterOutput or tuple(tf.Tensor)

A transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFSemanticSegmenterOutput or a tuple of tf.Tensor (if return_dict=False is passed or when config.return_dict=False) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (SegformerConfig) and inputs.

  • loss (tf.Tensor of shape (1,), optional, returned when labels is provided) β€” Classification (or regression if config.num_labels==1) loss.

  • logits (tf.Tensor of shape (batch_size, config.num_labels, logits_height, logits_width)) β€” Classification scores for each pixel.

    The logits returned do not necessarily have the same size as the pixel_values passed as inputs. This is to avoid doing two interpolations and lose some quality when a user needs to resize the logits to the original image size as post-processing. You should always check your logits shape and resize as needed.

  • hidden_states (tuple(tf.Tensor), optional, returned when output_hidden_states=True is passed or when config.output_hidden_states=True) β€” Tuple of tf.Tensor (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape (batch_size, patch_size, hidden_size).

    Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

  • attentions (tuple(tf.Tensor), optional, returned when output_attentions=True is passed or when config.output_attentions=True) β€” Tuple of tf.Tensor (one for each layer) of shape (batch_size, num_heads, patch_size, sequence_length).
