TDM Transformers in Computer Vision
Headline: 🚀 Unlock the Power of Transformers in Revolutionizing Computer Vision!
Course Description:
Are you ready to dive into the transformative world of Transformer Networks and their pivotal role in advancing Computer Vision? With the advent of Transformer models in NLP, they've reshaped the landscape of natural language processing. Now, it's time to witness their evolution in the realm of CV, where they're quickly becoming the backbone for cutting-edge solutions.
👁️ Introduction to Attention Mechanisms and Transformers: Transformers, first introduced to NLP, are a leap forward in machine learning. We'll kick off our journey by exploring the core concept of attention mechanisms and how Transformer networks harness this power. 📚 By examining NLP examples, we'll lay the groundwork for understanding why these models are revolutionizing AI.
✨ Pros and Cons of Transformers: Delve into the advantages and challenges that come with the Transformer architecture. We'll discuss the paradigm shift from traditional convolutional networks to attention-based learning, and why unsupervised or semi-supervised pre-training is a game-changer for large scale language models (LLMs) like BERT and GPT.
🖼️ Transformers in Computer Vision: Extending the attention mechanism beyond text, we'll explore how transformers interpret the 2D spatial domain of images. Learn about the encoder-decoder meta architecture and how it generalizes convolution through self-attention. Discover the importance of channel and spatial attention, and how local vs. global attention shapes the transformative power of these models.
💪 Specific Networks for CV Challenges: Dive into the specifics of Vision Transformer (ViT), Shifted Window Transformer (SWIN), Detection Transformer (DETR), Segmentation Transformer (SETR), and many more. Understand how these networks tackle the heavyweights of computer vision: classification, object detection, and segmentation.
🎬 Transformers in Video Processing: Expand your knowledge to Spatio-Temporal Transformers and their applications in detecting moving objects within video frames. Explore a multi-task learning setup that leverages transformers for a variety of tasks.
🚀 Practical Application with Huggingface Library: Finally, we'll bring the theory into practice. Learn how to apply these pre-trained Transformer architectures in real-world scenarios using the powerful Huggingface library and its Pipeline interface.
