83 methods 4,655 papers tagged archive 2025-07-28

The archive attaches this collection's text per method and the copies differ: 3 distinct texts across 83 of the 83 methods here. All are shown, most-carried first (a tie goes to the text carrying Papers with Code's collection boilerplate, then to the longer text); no vote is taken between them.

Text 1, carried by 64 of 83 methods:

Image Model Blocks are building blocks used in image models such as convolutional neural networks. Below you can find a continuously updating list of image model blocks.

Text 2, carried by 18 of 83 methods:

Skip Connection Blocks are building blocks for neural networks that feature skip connections. These skip connections 'skip' some layers allowing gradients to better flow through the network. Below you will find a continuously updating list of skip connection blocks:

Text 3, carried by 1 of 83 methods:

Transformers are a type of neural network architecture that have several properties that make them effective for modeling data with long-range dependencies. They generally feature a combination of multi-headed attention mechanisms, residual connections, layer normalization, feedforward connections, and positional embeddings.
