TF-EfficientNetV2-S - Anime/Real/Rendered Classifier
Higher-capacity classifier with improved generalization for distinguishing photographs from anime and 3D rendered images.
Model Summary
- Model Name: tf_efficientnetv2_s
- Framework: PyTorch + TIMM
- Input: 224×224 RGB images
- Output: 3 classes (anime, real, rendered)
- Parameters: 21.5M (4× larger than B0)
- Size: 81.4 MB
Intended Use
Same as EfficientNet-B0, but with higher accuracy and better generalization:
- anime: Drawn 2D or cel-shaded animation
- real: Photographs and real-world footage
- rendered: 3D graphics (games, CGI, Pixar, etc.)
Performance
Validation Accuracy: 97.55% (+0.11% vs B0)
| Class | Precision | Recall | F1-Score | Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| anime | 1.00 | 0.97 | 0.98 | 236 |
| real | 0.98 | 0.99 | 0.98 | 500 |
| rendered | 0.93 | 0.90 | 0.91 | 161 |
| weighted avg | 0.97 | 0.95 | 0.96 | 897 |
Training Data
Identical to EfficientNet-B0:
- Real images: 5,000 COCO 2017 validation set
- Anime images: 2,357 curated frames
- Rendered images: 1,549 AAA games + 61 Pixar stills
- Total: 8,967 images (8,070 train / 897 diverse val)
Training Details
- Framework: PyTorch
- Augmentation: Resize only (224×224)
- Loss Function: CrossEntropyLoss with inverse frequency weighting
- Optimizer: AdamW (lr=0.001)
- Batch Size: 40 (GPU memory constrained)
- Epochs: 20
- Hardware: NVIDIA RTX 3060 (12GB VRAM)
- Training Time: ~60 minutes
Comparison to EfficientNet-B0
| Metric | B0 | V2-S | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|
| Final Accuracy | 97.44% | 97.55% | +0.11% |
| Best Accuracy | 97.99% | 97.99% | Tied |
| Params | 5.3M | 21.5M | +4× |
| Speed | ~20ms | ~60ms | -3× |
| Convergence | Epoch 4 | Epoch 13 | -9 epochs |
| Train Loss | 0.1022 | 0.0003 | Better |
| Val Loss | 0.5519 | 0.1134 | Better |
Verdict: V2-S learns training distribution more thoroughly, but marginal real-world improvement. Use B0 for speed, V2-S for maximum accuracy.
Limitations
- Slower inference (60ms vs B0's 20ms)
- Larger model (81.4MB vs B0's 16.2MB)
- Same fundamental challenges: photorealistic games, cel-shading, artistic renders
- Performance degrades on images <224×224
Recommendations
- Real-time/Mobile: Use EfficientNet-B0 instead
- Accuracy-Critical: This model preferred
- Ensemble: Use both models for highest confidence
- Confidence Threshold: ≥80% for reliable predictions
- Edge Cases: Manually inspect when models disagree
How to Use
from PIL import Image
import torch
from torchvision import transforms
import timm
from safetensors.torch import load_file
# Load
model = timm.create_model('tf_efficientnetv2_s', num_classes=3, pretrained=False)
state_dict = load_file('model.safetensors')
model.load_state_dict(state_dict)
model.eval()
# Prepare image
transform = transforms.Compose([
transforms.Resize((224, 224)),
transforms.ToTensor(),
transforms.Normalize([0.485, 0.456, 0.406], [0.229, 0.224, 0.225]),
])
img = Image.open('image.jpg').convert('RGB')
x = transform(img).unsqueeze(0)
# Infer
with torch.no_grad():
logits = model(x)
probs = torch.softmax(logits, dim=1)
pred = probs.argmax().item()
labels = ['anime', 'real', 'rendered']
print(f"{labels[pred]}: {probs[0, pred]:.1%}")
Ensemble Strategy
For maximum accuracy, use both models:
# Load both
b0 = load_model('efficientnet_b0')
v2s = load_model('tf_efficientnetv2_s')
# Infer
with torch.no_grad():
probs_b0 = torch.softmax(b0(x), dim=1)
probs_v2s = torch.softmax(v2s(x), dim=1)
# Average predictions
ensemble_probs = (probs_b0 + probs_v2s) / 2
pred = ensemble_probs.argmax().item()
Benchmarks
Inference Speed (RTX 3060)
- Single image: ~60ms
- Batch of 16: ~200ms
Ethical Considerations
Same as EfficientNet-B0. This model:
- NOT designed for deepfake detection
- May have cultural bias in anime/rendered representation
- Should be used with human review for content moderation
