A list of modern (convolutional) network architectures for vision. Note that we only list the works based on convolution, modulation or other variants that emerge most recently. Please refer to other more comprehensive lists about networks using attention or MLP-style designs.
Since it is a new trend, so feel free to submit a pull request or raise an issue if you find any missed papers!
