## Overview

The ConvNeXT model was proposed in [A ConvNet for the 2020s](https://huggingface.co/papers/2201.03545) by Zhuang Liu, Hanzi Mao, Chao-Yuan Wu, Christoph Feichtenhofer, Trevor Darrell, Saining Xie.
ConvNeXT is a pure convolutional model (ConvNet), inspired by the design of Vision Transformers, that claims to outperform them.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*The "Roaring 20s" of visual recognition began with the introduction of Vision Transformers (ViTs), which quickly superseded ConvNets as the state-of-the-art image classification model.
A vanilla ViT, on the other hand, faces difficulties when applied to general computer vision tasks such as object detection and semantic segmentation. It is the hierarchical Transformers
(e.g., Swin Transformers) that reintroduced several ConvNet priors, making Transformers practically viable as a generic vision backbone and demonstrating remarkable performance on a wide
variety of vision tasks. However, the effectiveness of such hybrid approaches is still largely credited to the intrinsic superiority of Transformers, rather than the inherent inductive
biases of convolutions. In this work, we reexamine the design spaces and test the limits of what a pure ConvNet can achieve. We gradually "modernize" a standard ResNet toward the design
of a vision Transformer, and discover several key components that contribute to the performance difference along the way. The outcome of this exploration is a family of pure ConvNet models
dubbed ConvNeXt. Constructed entirely from standard ConvNet modules, ConvNeXts compete favorably with Transformers in terms of accuracy and scalability, achieving 87.8% ImageNet top-1 accuracy
and outperforming Swin Transformers on COCO detection and ADE20K segmentation, while maintaining the simplicity and efficiency of standard ConvNets.*

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a [ConvNextModel](/docs/transformers/v4.57.0/en/model_doc/convnext#transformers.ConvNextModel). It is used to instantiate an
ConvNeXT model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration
with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the ConvNeXT
[facebook/convnext-tiny-224](https://huggingface.co/facebook/convnext-tiny-224) architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from [PretrainedConfig](/docs/transformers/v4.57.0/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the
documentation from [PretrainedConfig](/docs/transformers/v4.57.0/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) for more information.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module`

ConvNext Model with an image classification head on top (a linear layer on top of the pooled features), e.g. for
ImageNet.

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](/docs/transformers/v4.57.0/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch [torch.nn.Module](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module) subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.

- **labels** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size,)`, *optional*) --
  Labels for computing the image classification/regression loss. Indices should be in `[0, ...,

- **hidden_states** (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, *optional*, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) -- Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, +
  one for the output of each stage) of shape `(batch_size, num_channels, height, width)`. Hidden-states (also
  called feature maps) of the model at the output of each stage.</retdesc></docstring>
The [ConvNextForImageClassification](/docs/transformers/v4.57.0/en/model_doc/convnext#transformers.ConvNextForImageClassification) forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

<Tip>

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module`
instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while
the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

```python
>>> from transformers import AutoImageProcessor, ConvNextForImageClassification
>>> import torch
>>> from datasets import load_dataset

>>> dataset = load_dataset("huggingface/cats-image")
>>> image = dataset["test"]["image"][0]

>>> image_processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained("facebook/convnext-tiny-224")
>>> model = ConvNextForImageClassification.from_pretrained("facebook/convnext-tiny-224")

>>> inputs = image_processor(image, return_tensors="pt")

>>> with torch.no_grad():
...     logits = model(**inputs).logits

>>> # model predicts one of the 1000 ImageNet classes
>>> predicted_label = logits.argmax(-1).item()
>>> print(model.config.id2label[predicted_label])
...
