Abstract: Transformer is a deep neural network based on the self-attention mechanism and parallel processing data. In recent years, Transformer-based models have emerged as an important area of research for computer vision tasks. Aiming at the current blanks in domestic review articles based on Transformer, this paper covers its application in computer vision. This paper reviews the basic principles of the Transformer model, mainly focuses on the application of seven visual tasks such as image classification, object detection and segmentation, and analyzes Transformer-based models with significant effects. Finally, this paper summarizes the challenges and future development trends of the Transformer model in computer vision.
