# kerasformers/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224_ms_in1k

Paper: [Swin Transformer: Hierarchical Vision Transformer using Shifted Windows (arXiv:2103.14030)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.14030) · [HF Papers](https://huggingface.co/papers/2103.14030)

Swin Transformer builds hierarchical feature maps with shifted-window attention. Strong as an ImageNet classifier and as a 4-stage backbone.

For more details on the model, please go to the upstream [model card](https://huggingface.co/timm/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.ms_in1k).

Pure-**Keras 3** conversion of [`timm/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.ms_in1k`](https://huggingface.co/timm/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.ms_in1k) for [kerasformers](https://github.com/IMvision12/KerasFormers). One implementation runs unmodified on **TensorFlow / Torch / JAX**.

This is an **image-classification / backbone** checkpoint (`SwinImageClassify` / `SwinModel`).

## ✨ Quick start

```python
import os
os.environ["KERAS_BACKEND"] = "torch"  # or "jax" / "tensorflow"

from PIL import Image
import numpy as np
from kerasformers.models.swin import SwinImageClassify, SwinModel

model = SwinImageClassify.from_weights("kerasformers/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224_ms_in1k")
backbone = SwinModel.from_weights(
    "kerasformers/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224_ms_in1k", as_backbone=True
)

image = Image.open("your_image.jpg").convert("RGB")
image = image.resize((224, 224))
x = np.asarray(image, dtype="float32")[None]  # (1, H, W, 3)
print(model(x).shape)  # (1, num_classes)
feats = backbone(x)
print(len(feats), [tuple(f.shape) for f in feats])
```

Load any Swin Transformer variant the same way with `from_weights("kerasformers/<variant>")`:

## Tips

- Set `KERAS_BACKEND` **before** importing Keras / kerasformers.
- `SwinImageClassify` returns class logits; `SwinModel` returns features (`as_backbone=True` for multi-scale stages).
- See [docs](https://imvision12.github.io/KerasFormers/classification_backbones/) and [Loading Weights](https://imvision12.github.io/KerasFormers/loading_weights/).
- Upstream / timm checkpoints: `SwinImageClassify.from_weights("hf:timm/swin_tiny_patch4_window7_224.ms_in1k")`.

## Special Thanks

A huge thank you to the Swin Transformer authors and the timm / Hub communities for creating and releasing these models.
