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.

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.
