1. 简介

1.1 简介

今年(2022)一月份，Facebook AI Research和UC Berkeley一起发表了一篇文章A ConvNet for the 2020s，在文章中提出了ConvNeXt纯卷积神经网络，它对标的是2021年非常火的Swin Transformer，通过一系列实验比对，在相同的FLOPs下，ConvNeXt相比Swin Transformer拥有更快的推理速度以及更高的准确率，在ImageNet 22K上ConvNeXt-XL达到了87.8%的准确率。看来ConvNeXt的提出强行给卷积神经网络续了口命。

1.2 结论

自从ViT(Vision Transformer)在CV领域大放异彩，越来越多的研究人员开始拥入Transformer的怀抱。

回顾近一年，在CV领域发的文章绝大多数都是基于Transformer的，比如2021年ICCV 的best paper Swin Transformer

而卷积神经网络已经开始慢慢淡出舞台中央。卷积神经网络要被Transformer取代了吗？也许会在不久的将来。

2. 网络架构

如果你仔细阅读了这篇文章，你会发现ConvNeXt“毫无亮点”，ConvNeXt使用的全部都是现有的结构和方法，没有任何结构或者方法的创新。而且源码也非常的精简，100多行代码就能搭建完成，相比Swin Transformer简直不要太简单。

2.1 设计方案

如果你仔细阅读了这篇文章，你会发现ConvNeXt“毫无亮点”，ConvNeXt使用的全部都是现有的结构和方法，没有任何结构或者方法的创新。而且源码也非常的精简，100多行代码就能搭建完成，相比Swin Transformer简直不要太简单。

• macro design
• ResNeXt
• inverted bottleneck
• large kerner size
• various layer-wise micro designs

下图（原论文图2）展现了每个方案对最终结果的影响（Imagenet 1K的准确率）。很明显最后得到的ConvNeXt在相同FLOPs下准确率已经超过了Swin Transformer。接下来，针对每一个实验进行解析。

2.2 Macro design

在原ResNet网络中，一般conv4_x（即stage3）堆叠的block的次数是最多的。如下图中的ResNet50中stage1到stage4堆叠block的次数是(3, 4, 6, 3)比例大概是1:1:2:1，但在Swin Transformer中，比如Swin-T的比例是1:1:3:1，Swin-L的比例是1:1:9:1。很明显，在Swin Transformer中，stage3堆叠block的占比更高。所以作者就将ResNet50中的堆叠次数由(3, 4, 6, 3)调整成(3, 3, 9, 3)，和Swin-T拥有相似的FLOPs。进行调整后，准确率由78.8%提升到了79.4%。

在之前的卷积神经网络中，一般最初的下采样模块stem一般都是通过一个卷积核大小为7x7步距为2的卷积层以及一个步距为2的最大池化下采样共同组成，高和宽都下采样4倍。但在Transformer模型中一般都是通过一个卷积核非常大且相邻窗口之间没有重叠的（即stride等于kernel_size）卷积层进行下采样。比如在Swin Transformer中采用的是一个卷积核大小为4x4步距为4的卷积层构成patchify，同样是下采样4倍。所以作者将ResNet中的stem也换成了和Swin Transformer一样的patchify。替换后准确率从79.4% 提升到79.5%，并且FLOPs也降低了一点。

2.3 ResNeXt-ify

接下来作者借鉴了ResNeXt中的组卷积grouped convolution，因为ResNeXt相比普通的ResNet而言在FLOPs以及accuracy之间做到了更好的平衡。而作者采用的是更激进的depthwise convolution，即group数和通道数channel相同，这样做的另一个原因是作者认为depthwise convolution和self-attention中的加权求和操作很相似。

接着作者将最初的通道数由64调整成96和Swin Transformer保持一致，最终准确率达到了80.5%。

2.4 Inverted Bottleneck

作者认为Transformer block中的MLP模块非常像MobileNetV2中的Inverted Bottleneck模块，即两头细中间粗。

图a是ReNet中采用的Bottleneck模块，

b是MobileNetV2采用的Inverted Botleneck模块

c是ConvNeXt采用的是Inverted Bottleneck模块。

作者采用Inverted Bottleneck模块后，在较小的模型上准确率由80.5%提升到了80.6%，在较大的模型上准确率由81.9%提升到82.6%。

2.5 Large Kernel Sizes

在Transformer中一般都是对全局做self-attention，比如Vision Transformer。即使是Swin Transformer也有7x7大小的窗口。但现在主流的卷积神经网络都是采用3x3大小的窗口，因为之前VGG论文中说通过堆叠多个3x3的窗口可以替代一个更大的窗口，而且现在的GPU设备针对3x3大小的卷积核做了很多的优化，所以会更高效。接着作者做了如下两个改动：

• Moving up depthwise conv layer**，即将depthwise conv模块上移，原来是1x1 conv -> depthwise conv -> 1x1 conv，现在变成了depthwise conv -> 1x1 conv -> 1x1 conv。这么做是因为在Transformer中，MSA模块是放在MLP模块之前的，所以这里进行效仿，将depthwise conv上移。这样改动后，准确率下降到了79.9%，同时FLOPs也减小了。

Increasing the kernel size，接着作者将depthwise conv的卷积核大小由3x3改成了7x7（和Swin Transformer一样），当然作者也尝试了其他尺寸，包括3, 5, 7, 9, 11发现取到7时准确率就达到了饱和。并且准确率从79.9% (3×3) 增长到 80.6% (7×7)。

2.6 Micro Design

接下来作者在聚焦到一些更细小的差异，比如激活函数以及Normalization。

Replacing ReLU with GELU，在Transformer中激活函数基本用的都是GELU，而在卷积神经网络中最常用的是ReLU，于是作者又将激活函数替换成了GELU，替换后发现准确率没变化。

Fewer activation functions，使用更少的激活函数。在卷积神经网络中，一般会在每个卷积层或全连接后都接上一个激活函数。但在Transformer中并不是每个模块后都跟有激活函数，比如MLP中只有第一个全连接层后跟了GELU激活函数。接着作者在ConvNeXt Block中也减少激活函数的使用，如下图所示，减少后发现准确率从80.6%增长到81.3%。

• Fewer normalization layers，使用更少的Normalization。同样在Transformer中，Normalization使用的也比较少，接着作者也减少了ConvNeXt Block中的Normalization层，只保留了depthwise conv后的Normalization层。此时准确率已经达到了81.4%，已经超过了Swin-T。
• Substituting BN with LN，将BN替换成LN。Batch Normalization（BN）在卷积神经网络中是非常常用的操作了，它可以加速网络的收敛并减少过拟合（但用的不好也是个大坑）。但在Transformer中基本都用的Layer Normalization（LN），因为最开始Transformer是应用在NLP领域的，BN又不适用于NLP相关任务。接着作者将BN全部替换成了LN，发现准确率还有小幅提升达到了81.5%。
• Separate downsampling layers，单独的下采样层。在ResNet网络中stage2-stage4的下采样都是通过将主分支上3x3的卷积层步距设置成2，捷径分支上1x1的卷积层步距设置成2进行下采样的。但在Swin Transformer中是通过一个单独的Patch Merging实现的。接着作者就为ConvNext网络单独使用了一个下采样层，就是通过一个Laryer Normalization加上一个卷积核大小为2步距为2的卷积层构成。更改后准确率就提升到了82.0%。

2.7 ConvNext variants

对于ConvNeXt网络，作者提出了T/S/B/L四个版本，计算复杂度刚好和Swin Transformer中的T/S/B/L相似。

• ConvNeXt-T: C = (96, 192, 384, 768), B = (3, 3, 9, 3)
• ConvNeXt-S: C = (96, 192, 384, 768), B = (3, 3, 27, 3)
• ConvNeXt-B: C = (128, 256, 512, 1024), B = (3, 3, 27, 3)
• ConvNeXt-L: C = (192, 384, 768, 1536), B = (3, 3, 27, 3)
• ConvNeXt-XL: C = (256, 512, 1024, 2048), B = (3, 3, 27, 3)

其中C代表4个stage中输入的通道数，B代表每个stage重复堆叠block的次数。

3. 训练

下图是我根据源码手绘的ConvNeXt-T网络结构图，仔细观察ConvNeXt Block会发现其中还有一个Layer Scale操作

（论文中并没有提到），其实它就是将输入的特征层乘上一个可训练的参数，该参数就是一个向量

元素个数与特征层channel相同，即对每个channel的数据进行缩放。

Layer Scale操作出自于Going deeper with image transformers. ICCV, 2021这篇文章
