Dual Vision Transformer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recent advances have presented several strategies to mitigate the computations of self-attention mechanism with high-resolution inputs. Many of these works consider decomposing the global self-attention procedure over image patches into regional and local feature extraction procedures that each incurs a smaller computational complexity. Despite good efficiency, these approaches seldom explore the holistic interactions among all patches, and are thus difficult to fully capture the global semantics. In this paper, we propose a novel Transformer architecture that elegantly exploits the global semantics for self-attention learning, namely Dual Vision Transformer (Dual-ViT). The new architecture incorporates a critical semantic pathway that can more efficiently compress token vectors into global semantics with reduced order of complexity. Such compressed global semantics then serve as useful prior information in learning finer local pixel level details, through another constructed pixel pathway. The semantic pathway and pixel pathway are integrated together and are jointly trained, spreading the enhanced self-attention information in parallel through both of the pathways. Dual-ViT is henceforth able to capitalize on global semantics to boost self-attention learning without compromising much computational complexity. We empirically demonstrate that Dual-ViT provides superior accuracy than SOTA Transformer architectures with comparable training complexity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
