+## Vision Transformer for Small Datasets
+
+<img src="./images/vit_for_small_datasets.png" width="400px"></img>
+
+This paper proposes a new image to patch function that incorporates shifts of the image, before normalizing and dividing the image into patches. I have found shifting to be extremely helpful in some other transformers work, so decided to include this for further explorations. It also includes the `LRA` with the learned temperature and masking out of token attention to itself.
+
+You can use as follows:
+
+```python
+import torch
+from vit_pytorch.vit_for_small_dataset import ViT
+
+v = ViT(
+    image_size = 256,
+    patch_size = 16,
+    num_classes = 1000,
+    dim = 1024,
+    depth = 6,
+    heads = 16,
+    mlp_dim = 2048,
+    dropout = 0.1,
+    emb_dropout = 0.1
+)
+
+img = torch.randn(4, 3, 256, 256)
+
+preds = v(img) # (1, 1000)
+```
+
+You can also use the `SPT` from this paper as a standalone module
+
+```python
+import torch
+from vit_pytorch.vit_for_small_dataset import SPT
+
+spt = SPT(
+    dim = 1024,
+    patch_size = 16,
+    channels = 3
+)
+
+img = torch.randn(4, 3, 256, 256)
+
+tokens = spt(img) # (4, 256, 1024)
+```
