Model card for cpubone_b0_bfrobust.r224_in1k

A CPUBone image classification model. CPUBone is designed for efficient CPU inference by balancing a low operation count with hardware-efficient execution (high MACs per second). It combines grouped MBConv variants, reduced convolution kernels, and LowFormer attention in its final two stages. This checkpoint was trained on ImageNet-1k by the paper authors and converted to the timm state-dict layout.

Model Notes

bfrobust local MBConv branches normalize the expansion, depthwise, and projection convolutions.
The default preprocessing is encoded in the pretrained configuration: bicubic resize, ImageNet mean and standard deviation, and a center crop with crop_pct=0.95.
The model can be used for ImageNet-1k classification, image embeddings, or multi-scale feature-map extraction with features_only=True.
CPU latency depends on the target hardware, inference runtime, export path, and batch size. See the paper for device-specific batch-size-one measurements and methodology.

Model Usage

Image Classification

python

from urllib.request import urlopen
from PIL import Image
import timm

img = Image.open(urlopen(
    'https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/beignets-task-guide.png'
))

model = timm.create_model('cpubone_b0_bfrobust.r224_in1k', pretrained=True)
model = model.eval()

# get model specific transforms (normalization, resize)
data_config = timm.data.resolve_model_data_config(model)
transforms = timm.data.create_transform(**data_config, is_training=False)

output = model(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0))  # unsqueeze single image into batch of 1

top5_probabilities, top5_class_indices = torch.topk(output.softmax(dim=1) * 100, k=5)

Feature Map Extraction

python

from urllib.request import urlopen
from PIL import Image
import timm

img = Image.open(urlopen(
    'https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/beignets-task-guide.png'
))

model = timm.create_model(
    'cpubone_b0_bfrobust.r224_in1k',
    pretrained=True,
    features_only=True,
)
model = model.eval()

# get model specific transforms (normalization, resize)
data_config = timm.data.resolve_model_data_config(model)
transforms = timm.data.create_transform(**data_config, is_training=False)

output = model(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0))  # unsqueeze single image into batch of 1

for o in output:
    # print shape of each feature map in output
    # e.g.:
    #  torch.Size([1, 32, 56, 56])
    #  torch.Size([1, 64, 28, 28])
    #  torch.Size([1, 128, 14, 14])
    #  torch.Size([1, 256, 7, 7])

    print(o.shape)

Image Embeddings

python

from urllib.request import urlopen
from PIL import Image
import timm

img = Image.open(urlopen(
    'https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/beignets-task-guide.png'
))

model = timm.create_model(
    'cpubone_b0_bfrobust.r224_in1k',
    pretrained=True,
    num_classes=0,  # remove classifier nn.Linear
)
model = model.eval()

# get model specific transforms (normalization, resize)
data_config = timm.data.resolve_model_data_config(model)
transforms = timm.data.create_transform(**data_config, is_training=False)

output = model(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0))  # output is (batch_size, num_features) shaped tensor

# or equivalently (without needing to set num_classes=0)

output = model.forward_features(transforms(img).unsqueeze(0))
# output is unpooled, a (1, 256, 7, 7) shaped tensor

output = model.forward_head(output, pre_logits=True)
# output is a (1, num_features) shaped tensor

Model Comparison
