Adding Mish Activation Function #25584
Comments
We don't think this method should be in pytorch core, as opposed to your own personal repository or something like https://github.com/pytorch/contrib , at least not yet in time. Our reservation is that we want to include methods that the community uses as a standard, or else the code maintenance problem balloons up for us. If you have a differing opinion, let us know why, and we can re-think. tl;dr: The paper doesn't show evidence that makes it a method that has obvious long-term success. If the paper does have long-term success in the field we will include it |
Mish has shown better performance compared to SiLU, GELU, still no official plan? |
Bump. Mish should be added, as should HardMish |
The SOTA vision object detection: ScaledYolo now depends on Mish and a random third party extension to work - which itself works with pytorch1.6. so you cannot do SOTA object detection with Pytorch 1.7 because of this missing, which is maybe a good argument for its inclusion? @soumith |
I released Mish activation function a couple of weeks ago and it has a significant improvement in performance over ReLU, Swish and other commonly used activation functions. Full details along with the paper link provided in my repository here - https://github.com/digantamisra98/Mish
Mish was also used along with Ranger Optimizer to beat 12 records on the Fast.ai ImageNette and ImageWoof benchmarks.
The link to the relevant fast.ai forum - https://forums.fast.ai/t/meet-mish-new-activation-function-possible-successor-to-relu/53299/245
I have the pytorch implementation of Mish here - https://github.com/digantamisra98/Mish/tree/master/Mish/Torch
Hopefully, if validated, I would like Mish to be a part of PyTorch by submitting a PR for ease of use.
Thank You!
