Is It the Patches? This AI Approach Analyzes the Key Contributor to the

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been the standard for computer vision tasks for years, but a new architecture called the Vision Transformer (ViT) has recently outperformed them, especially for large data sets.

ConvMixer is a convolutional architecture designed to analyze the performance of ViTs and determine the main factor contributing to its superior performance.

It works by using standard convolutional layers to mix the spatial and channel locations of patch embeddings, and outperforms both standard computer vision models and some ViT and MLP-Mixer variants.

ConvMixer demonstrates that the patch-based isotropic mixing architecture is a powerful primitive that works well with almost any choice of well-behaved mixing operations.
