Abstract
Techniques and apparatus for analyzing visual content using a visual transformer are described. An example technique includes generating a first set of tokens based on a visual content item. Each token in the first set of tokens is associated with a regional feature from a different region of a plurality of regions of the visual content item. A second set of tokens is generated based on the visual content item. Each token in the second set of tokens is associated with a local feature from one of the plurality of regions of the visual content item. At least one feature map is generated for the visual content item, based on analyzing the first set of tokens and the second set of tokens separately using a hierarchical vision transformer. At least one vision task is performed based on the at least one feature map.
