YOLOv8改进 | 主干篇 | RevColV1可逆列网络（特征解耦助力小目标检测）

一、本文介绍

本文给大家带来的是主干网络RevColV1，翻译过来就是可逆列网络去发表于ICLR2022，其是一种新型的神经网络设计(和以前的网络结构的传播方式不太一样)，由多个子网络（列）通过多级可逆连接组成。这种设计允许在前向传播过程中特征解耦，保持总信息无压缩或丢弃。其非常适合数据集庞大的目标检测任务，数据集数量越多其效果性能越好，亲测在包含1000个图片的数据集上其涨点效果就非常明显了，大家可以多动手尝试，其RevColV2的论文同时已经发布如果代码开源我也会第一时间给大家上传。

2.1 RevColV1的基本原理

RevCol的主要原理和思想是利用可逆连接来设计网络结构，允许信息在网络的不同分支（列）间自由流动而不丢失。这种多列结构在前向传播过程中逐渐解耦特征，并保持全部信息，而不是进行压缩或舍弃。这样的设计提高了网络在图像分类、对象检测和语义分割等计算机视觉任务中的表现，尤其是在参数量大和数据集大时。

RevCol的创新点我将其总结为以下几点：

1. 可逆连接设计：通过多个子网络（列）间的可逆连接，保证信息在前向传播过程中不丢失。
2. 特征解耦：在每个列中，特征逐渐被解耦，保持总信息而非压缩或舍弃。
3. 适用于大型数据集和参数：在大型数据集和高参数预算下表现出色。
4. 跨模型应用：可作为宏架构方式，应用于变换器或其他神经网络，改善计算机视觉和NLP任务的性能。

简单总结：RevCol通过其独特的多列结构和可逆连接设计，使得网络能够在处理信息时保持完整性，提高特征处理的效率。这种架构在数据丰富且复杂的情况下尤为有效，且可灵活应用于不同类型的神经网络模型中。

其中的创新点第四点不用叙述了，网络结构可以应用于我们的YOLOv8就是最好的印证。

这是论文中的图片1，展示了传统单列网络（a）与RevCol（b）的信息传播对比。在图(a)中，信息通过一个接一个的层线性传播，每层处理后传递给下一层直至输出。而在图(b)中，RevCol通过多个并行列（Col 1 到 Col N）处理信息，其中可逆连接（蓝色曲线）允许信息在列间传递，保持低级别和语义级别的信息传播。这种结构有助于整个网络维持更丰富的信息，并且每个列都能从其他列中学习到信息，增强了特征的表达和网络的学习能力(但是这种做法导致模型的参数量非常巨大，而且训练速度缓慢计算量比较大)。

---

2.1.1 可逆连接设计

在RevCol中的可逆连接设计允许多个子网络（称为列）之间进行信息的双向流动。这意味着在前向传播的过程中，每一列都能接收到前一列的信息，并将自己的处理结果传递给下一列，同时能够保留传递过程中的所有信息。这种设计避免了在传统的深度网络中常见的信息丢失问题，特别是在网络层次较深时。因此，RevCol可以在深层网络中维持丰富的特征表示，从而提高了模型对数据的表示能力和学习效率。

这张图片展示了RevCol网络的不同组成部分和信息流动方式。

• 图 (a) 展示了RevNet中的一个可逆单元，标识了不同时间步长的状态。
• 图 (b) 展示了多级可逆单元，所有输入在不同级别上进行信息交换。
• 图 (c) 提供了整个可逆列网络架构的概览，其中包含了简化的多级可逆单元。

整个设计允许信息在网络的不同层级和列之间自由流动，而不会丢失任何信息，这对于深层网络的学习和特征提取是非常有益的(我觉得这里有点类似于Neck部分允许层级之间相互交流信息)。

---

2.1.2 特征解耦 

特征解耦是指在RevCol网络的每个子网络（列）中，特征通过可逆连接传递，同时独立地进行处理和学习。这样，每个列都能保持输入信息的完整性，而不会像传统的深度网络那样，在层与层之间传递时压缩或丢弃信息。随着信息在列中的前进，特征之间的关联性逐渐减弱（解耦），使得网络能够更细致地捕捉并强调重要的特征，这有助于提高模型在复杂任务上的性能和泛化能力。

 

这张图展示了RevCol网络的一个级别（Level l）的微观设计，以及特征融合模块（Fusion Block）的设计。在图（a）中，展示了ConvNeXt级别的标准结构，包括下采样块和残差块。图（b）中的RevCol级别包含了融合模块、残差块和可逆操作。这里的特征解耦是通过融合模块实现的，该模块接收相邻级别的特征图 ,  作为输入，并将它们融合以生成新的特征表示。这样，不同级别的特征在融合过程中被解耦，每个级别维持其信息而不压缩或舍弃。图（c）详细描述了融合模块的内部结构，它通过上采样和下采样操作处理不同分辨率的特征图，然后将它们线性叠加，形成为ConvNeXt块提供的特征。这种设计让特征在不同分辨率间流动时进行有效融合。

2.2 RevColV1的表现

这张图片展示了伴随着FLOPs的增长TOP1的准确率情况，可以看出RevColV1伴随着FLOPs的增加效果逐渐明显。

三、RevColV1的核心代码

下面的代码是RevColV1的全部代码，其中包含多个版本，但是大家需要注意这个模型训练非常耗时，参数量非常大，但是其特点就是参数量越大效果越好。其使用方式看章节四。

四、手把手教你添加RevColV1机制

这个主干的网络结构添加起来算是所有的改进机制里最麻烦的了，因为有一些网略结构可以用yaml文件搭建出来，有一些网络结构其中的一些细节根本没有办法用yaml文件去搭建，用yaml文件去搭建会损失一些细节部分(而且一个网络结构设计很多细节的结构修改方式都不一样，一个一个去修改大家难免会出错)，所以这里让网络直接返回整个网络，然后修改部分 yolo代码以后就都以这种形式添加了，以后我提出的网络模型基本上都会通过这种方式修改，我也会进行一些模型细节改进。创新出新的网络结构大家直接拿来用就可以的。下面开始添加教程->

(同时每一个后面都有代码，大家拿来复制粘贴替换即可，但是要看好了不要复制粘贴替换多了)

---

修改一

我们复制网络结构代码到“ultralytics/nn/modules”目录下创建一个py文件复制粘贴进去 ，我这里起的名字是RevColV1。

​

---

修改二

找到如下的文件"ultralytics/nn/tasks.py" 在开始的部分导入我们的模型如下图。

from .modules.RevColV1 import revcol_tiny, revcol_base, revcol_xlarge, revcol_large, revcol_small

---

修改三 

添加如下两行代码！！！

​

---

修改四

找到七百多行大概把具体看图片，按照图片来修改就行，添加红框内的部分，注意没有()只是函数名，我这里只添加了部分的版本，大家有兴趣这个RevColV1还有更多的版本可以添加，看我给的代码函数头即可。

        elif m in {自行添加对应的模型即可，下面都是一样的}:
            m = m()
            c2 = m.width_list  # 返回通道列表
            backbone = True

---

修改五 

下面的两个红框内都是需要改动的。 

​

        if isinstance(c2, list):
            m_ = m
            m_.backbone = True
        else:
            m_ = nn.Sequential(*(m(*args) for _ in range(n))) if n > 1 else m(*args)  # module
            t = str(m)[8:-2].replace('__main__.', '')  # module type


        m.np = sum(x.numel() for x in m_.parameters())  # number params
        m_.i, m_.f, m_.type = i + 4 if backbone else i, f, t  # attach index, 'from' index, type

---

修改六 

如下的也需要修改，全部按照我的来。

​

代码如下把原先的代码替换了即可。 

        if verbose:
            LOGGER.info(f'{i:>3}{str(f):>20}{n_:>3}{m.np:10.0f}  {t:<45}{str(args):<30}')  # print

        save.extend(x % (i + 4 if backbone else i) for x in ([f] if isinstance(f, int) else f) if x != -1)  # append to savelist
        layers.append(m_)
        if i == 0:
            ch = []
        if isinstance(c2, list):
            ch.extend(c2)
            if len(c2) != 5:
                ch.insert(0, 0)
        else:
            ch.append(c2)

---

修改七

修改七和前面的都不太一样，需要修改前向传播中的一个部分， 已经离开了parse_model方法了。

可以在图片中开代码行数，没有离开task.py文件都是同一个文件。 同时这个部分有好几个前向传播都很相似，大家不要看错了，是70多行左右的！！！，同时我后面提供了代码，大家直接复制粘贴即可，有时间我针对这里会出一个视频。

​

代码如下->

    def _predict_once(self, x, profile=False, visualize=False):
        """
        Perform a forward pass through the network.

        Args:
            x (torch.Tensor): The input tensor to the model.
            profile (bool):  Print the computation time of each layer if True, defaults to False.
            visualize (bool): Save the feature maps of the model if True, defaults to False.

        Returns:
            (torch.Tensor): The last output of the model.
        """
        y, dt = [], []  # outputs
        for m in self.model:
            if m.f != -1:  # if not from previous layer
                x = y[m.f] if isinstance(m.f, int) else [x if j == -1 else y[j] for j in m.f]  # from earlier layers
            if profile:
                self._profile_one_layer(m, x, dt)
            if hasattr(m, 'backbone'):
                x = m(x)
                if len(x) != 5: # 0 - 5
                    x.insert(0, None)
                for index, i in enumerate(x):
                    if index in self.save:
                        y.append(i)
                    else:
                        y.append(None)
                x = x[-1] # 最后一个输出传给下一层
            else:
                x = m(x)  # run
                y.append(x if m.i in self.save else None)  # save output
            if visualize:
                feature_visualization(x, m.type, m.i, save_dir=visualize)
        return x

到这里就完成了修改部分，但是这里面细节很多，大家千万要注意不要替换多余的代码，导致报错，也不要拉下任何一部，都会导致运行失败，而且报错很难排查！！！很难排查！！！ 

---

修改八

我们找到如下文件'ultralytics/utils/torch_utils.py'按照如下的图片进行修改，否则容易打印不出来计算量。

​
