densenet_169(pretrained: bool = False, overrides: object = {})DenseNet-169 feature-extracting backbone (no classification head).
Builds a DenseNet with the paper-cited DenseNet-169
topology: per-block dense-layer counts (6, 12, 32, 32), growth
rate , initial conv channels 64. Approximately
14.3 M parameters total. Reaches a top-1 ImageNet error of 23.8%
(Huang et al., 2017, Table 3).
Model Size
Parameters
pretrainedbool= FalseNo checkpoint is published for
densenet_169, so True raises
NotImplementedError rather than return randomly initialised weights.
densenet_169_cls is the checkpointed variant.**overridesobject= {}Keyword overrides forwarded into
DenseNetConfig.Returns
DenseNetBackbone with the DenseNet-169 configuration applied (or with
overrides merged on top of it).
Notes
See Huang et al., CVPR 2017, Table 1. Final pre-classifier feature width is 1664 channels.
Examples
>>> import lucid
>>> from lucid.models.vision.densenet import densenet_169
>>> model = densenet_169()
>>> x = lucid.randn(1, 3, 224, 224)
>>> out = model(x)
>>> out.last_hidden_state.shape # (B, 1664, 1, 1)
(1, 1664, 1, 1)
