Deformable DETR模型学习记录
引言
Deformable-DETR的主要贡献：
1，结合可变形卷积的稀疏空间采用和Transformer的全局关系建模能力，提出可变形注意力机制模型，使其计算量降低，收敛加快。
2，使用多层级特征，但不使用FPN，对小目标有较好效果。
改进与创新
可变形注意力
可变形注意力提出的初衷是为了解决Transformer的Q，K的运算数据量巨大问题。作者认为Q没必要与所有的K都计算内积，而是只需要选择几个重要的K即可。
如下图，在该论文中，作者设定找4个K即可，而4个K的位置可以不断进行偏移，偏移过程如下图所示：
因此要解决的问题就是：（1）确定reference point(参考点）。（2）确定每个reference point的偏移量(offset)。（3）确定注意力权重矩阵 Amqk，其中在Encoder和Decoder中实现方法不太一样。Deformable的计算方式如下：
在Encoder部分，输入的Query Feature ( zq )为加入了位置编码的特征图(src+pos)， value(x)的计算方法只使用了src而没有位置编码(value_proj函数)。
- reference point确定方法为用了torch.meshgrid方法，调用函数 get_reference_points，有一个细节就是参考点归一化到0和1之间，因此取值的时候要用到双线性插值的方法。而在Decoder中，参考点的获取方法为object queries通过一个nn.Linear得到每个对应的reference point。
def get_reference_points(spatial_shapes, valid_ratios, device):
reference_points_list = []
for lvl, (H_, W_) in enumerate(spatial_shapes):
# 从0.5到H-0.5采样H个点，W同理 这个操作的目的也就是为了特征图的对齐
ref_y, ref_x = torch.meshgrid(torch.linspace(0.5, H_ - 0.5, H_, dtype=torch.float32, device=device),
torch.linspace(0.5, W_ - 0.5, W_, dtype=torch.float32, device=device))
ref_y = ref_y.reshape(-1)[None] / (valid_ratios[:, None, lvl, 1] * H_)
ref_x = ref_x.reshape(-1)[None] / (valid_ratios[:, None, lvl, 0] * W_)
ref = torch.stack((ref_x, ref_y), -1)
reference_points_list.append(ref)
reference_points = torch.cat(reference_points_list, 1)
reference_points = reference_points[:, :, None] * valid_ratios[:, None]
return reference_points
（2）计算offset的方法为对 zq 过一个nn.Linear，得到多组偏移量，每组偏移量的维度为参考点的个数，组数为注意力头的数量。
（3）计算注意力权重矩阵 Amqk 的方法为 zq 过一个nn.Linear和一个F.softmax，得到每个头的注意力权重。
如下图所示：
如上图所示：分头计算完的注意力最终会拼接到一起，然后最后过一个nn.Linear得到输入x 的最终输出。
多层级特征融合（Multi-Scale Deformable Attention Module）
多尺度的Deformable Attention模块也是在多尺度特征图上计算的。多尺度的特征融合方法则是取了骨干网(ResNet)最后三层的特征图C3，C4，C5，并且用了一个Conv3x3 Stride2的卷积得到了一个C6构成了四层特征图。随后会通过卷积操作将通道数量统一为256(也就是token的数量)，然后在这四个特征图上运行Deformable Attention Module并且进行直接相加得到最终输出。其中
Deformable Attention Module算子的pytorch实现如下：
def ms_deform_attn_core_pytorch(value, value_spatial_shapes, sampling_locations, attention_weights):
# for debug and test only,
# need to use cuda version instead
N_, S_, M_, D_ = value.shape # batch size, number token, number head, head dims
# Lq_: number query, L_: level number, P_: sampling number采样点数
_, Lq_, M_, L_, P_, _ = sampling_locations.shape
# 按照level划分value
value_list = value.split([H_ * W_ for H_, W_ in value_spatial_shapes], dim=1)
# [0, 1] -> [-1, 1] 因为要满足F.grid_sample的输入要求
sampling_grids = 2 * sampling_locations - 1
sampling_value_list = []
for lid_, (H_, W_) in enumerate(value_spatial_shapes):
# N_, H_*W_, M_, D_ -> N_, H_*W_, M_*D_ -> N_, M_*D_, H_*W_ -> N_*M_, D_, H_, W_
value_l_ = value_list[lid_].flatten(2).transpose(1, 2).reshape(N_*M_, D_, H_, W_)
# N_, Lq_, M_, P_, 2 -> N_, M_, Lq_, P_, 2 -> N_*M_, Lq_, P_, 2
sampling_grid_l_ = sampling_grids[:, :, :, lid_].transpose(1, 2).flatten(0, 1)
# N_*M_, D_, Lq_, P_
# 用双线性插值从feature map上获取value，因为mask的原因越界所以要zeros的方法进行填充
sampling_value_l_ = F.grid_sample(value_l_, sampling_grid_l_,
mode='bilinear', padding_mode='zeros', align_corners=False)
sampling_value_list.append(sampling_value_l_)
# (N_, Lq_, M_, L_, P_) -> (N_, M_, Lq_, L_, P_) -> (N_, M_, 1, Lq_, L_*P_)
attention_weights = attention_weights.transpose(1, 2).reshape(N_*M_, 1, Lq_, L_*P_)
# 不同scale计算出的multi head attention 进行相加，返回output后还需要过一个Linear层
output = (torch.stack(sampling_value_list, dim=-2).flatten(-2) * attention_weights).sum(-1).view(N_, M_*D_, Lq_)
return output.transpose(1, 2).contiguous()
Two-Stage Deformable DETR
这里的两阶段是受two-stage object detectors的启发，当然这里的改动其实很小：将Encoder输出的memory送入了FFN（前馈神经网络负责类别预测与box预测）将其进行修正后再送入Decoder。
其他改进
其他方面，Deformable相较于DETR修改了query-num的数量，改为300，但在推理过程中其会仍使用top100的预测框，此外在匈牙利匹配的cost矩阵构建时class的损失由原本的softmax简单运算变为了Focus loss。
模型结构
Encoder
Encoder加入了参考点计算，，此外改动了DerormableAttention计算。

Decoder
详细代码注释如下，这里要控制是否使用iterative bounding box refinement和two stage技巧。iterative bounding box refinement其实就是对参考点的位置进行微调。two stage方法其实就是通过参考点直接生成anchor但是只取最高置信度的前几个，然后再送入decoder进行调整。intermediate数组是一个trick，每层Decoder都是可以输出bbox和分类信息的，如果都利用起来算损失则成为auxiliary loss。
