# Swin Transformer V2

[Swin Transformer V2](https://huggingface.co/papers/2111.09883) is a 3B parameter model that focuses on how to scale a vision model to billions of parameters. It introduces techniques like residual-post-norm combined with cosine attention for improved training stability, log-spaced continuous position bias to better handle varying image resolutions between pre-training and fine-tuning, and a new pre-training method (SimMIM) to reduce the need for large amounts of labeled data. These improvements enable efficiently training very large models (up to 3 billion parameters) capable of processing high-resolution images.

You can find official Swin Transformer V2 checkpoints under the [Microsoft](https://huggingface.co/microsoft?search_models=swinv2) organization.

## Notes

- Swin Transformer V2 can pad the inputs for any input height and width divisible by `32`.
- Swin Transformer V2 can be used as a [backbone](../backbones). When `output_hidden_states = True`, it outputs both `hidden_states` and `reshaped_hidden_states`. The `reshaped_hidden_states` have a shape of `(batch, num_channels, height, width)` rather than `(batch_size, sequence_length, num_channels)`.
