Vision Transformers for Dense Prediction
Open accessAbstract
We introduce dense prediction transformers, an architecture that leverages vision transformers in place of convolutional networks as a backbone for dense prediction tasks. We assemble tokens from various stages of the vision transformer into image-like representations at various resolutions and progressively combine them into full-resolution predictions using a convolutional decoder. The transformer backbone processes representations at a constant and relatively high resolution and has a global receptive field at every stage. These properties allow the dense prediction transformer to provide finer-grained and more globally coherent predictions when compared to fully-convolutional networks. Our experiments show that this architecture yields substantial improvements on dense prediction tasks, especially when a large amount of training data is available. For monocular depth estimation, we observe an improvement of up to 28% in relative performance when compared to a state-of-the-art fully-convolutional network. When applied to semantic segmentation, dense prediction transformers set a new state of the art on ADE20K with 49.02% mIoU. We further show that the architecture can be fine-tuned on smaller datasets such as NYUv2, KITTI, and Pascal Context where it also sets the new state of the art. Our models are available at https://github.com/intel-isl/DPT.

The Introduction (p. 1) says convolutional models such as PixelCNN had received much more attention for pixel-by-pixel image generation. It does not establish that virtually all architectures across the broader category of dense prediction are convolutional; it also discusses recurrent models and proposes a self-attention alternative (Introduction, p. 2).

The paper is an example of a convolutional-network architecture for dense prediction: its Abstract (p. 1) describes predicting a depth map, and §3.1.2 (p. 3) identifies its convolutional layers and target-depth output. As one of several citations, it supports the sentence by exemplifying such an architecture, rather than establishing the prevalence claim on its own. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The Introduction (p. 1) says ViT performs modestly on mid-sized datasets and does not generalize well with insufficient data, but attains excellent results when pre-trained at sufficient scale. Section 4.3 (p. 6) reports that larger ViT models show their full benefit only with the largest pre-training dataset tested.

The choice of backbone architecture has a large influence on the capabilities of the overall model, because information lost in the encoder cannot be recovered in the decoder.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
