Pytorch reimplementation of Google's repository for the MLP-Mixer (Not yet updated on the master branch) that was released with the paper MLP-Mixer: An all-MLP Architecture for Vision by Ilya Tolstikhin, Neil Houlsby, Alexander Kolesnikov, Lucas Beyer, Xiaohua Zhai, Thomas Unterthiner, Jessica Yung, Daniel Keysers, Jakob Uszkoreit, Mario Lucic, Alexey Dosovitskiy.
In this paper, the authors show a performance close to SotA in an image classification benchmark using MLP(Multi-layer perceptron) without using CNN and Transformer.
MLP-Mixer (Mixer for short) consists of per-patch linear embeddings, Mixer layers, and a classifier head. Mixer layers contain one token-mixing MLP and one channel-mixing MLP, each consisting of two fully-connected layers and a GELU nonlinearity. Other components include: skip-connections, dropout, and linear classifier head.
