Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-train on ImageNet-1k instead of training from random initialization | YOLOS-Ti on COCO · COCO val | AP: 19.7 -> 28.7 | Helped |
| Increase supervised pre-training from 200 to 300 epochs (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti · COCO val | AP: 26.9 -> 28.7 | Helped |
| Increase supervised pre-training from 200 to 300 epochs (ablation) | YOLOS-S · COCO val | AP: 36.1 -> 36.1 | No clear effect |
| Add transformer-specific distillation during ImageNet pre-training (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti and YOLOS-S · COCO val | AP: 28.7 -> 29.7; 36.1 -> 37.2 | Helped |
| Use DINO rather than MoCo-v3 self-supervised pre-training (ablation) | YOLOS-S · COCO val | AP: 33.6 -> 36.2 | Helped |
| Apply uniform compound scaling rather than width scaling (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti scaled to about 4.5 GFLOPs · COCO val | AP: 36.1 -> 36.2 | No clear effect |
| Apply fast scaling rather than width scaling (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti scaled to about 4.5 GFLOPs · COCO val | AP: 36.1 -> 37.6 | Helped |
| Freeze the detection tokens instead of learning them (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti · COCO val | AP: 28.7 -> 28.3 | Hurt |
| Freeze the detection tokens instead of learning them (ablation) | YOLOS-S · COCO val | AP: 36.1 -> 36.4 | Helped |
| Use one large first-layer positional embedding and omit intermediate positional embeddings (ablation) | YOLOS-Ti · COCO val | AP: 28.3 -> 28.7 | Helped |
| Use one large first-layer positional embedding and omit intermediate positional embeddings (ablation) | YOLOS-S · COCO val | AP: 36.1 -> 36.6 | Helped |
| Apply dropout or stochastic depth during COCO fine-tuning (ablation) | YOLOS · COCO object detection | AP | Hurt |
