We take advantage of the multi-resolution parallel design introduced in high-resolution convolutional networks (HRNet), along with local-window self-attention that performs self-attention over small non-overlapping image windows, for improving the memory and computation efficiency. In addition, we introduce a convolution into the FFN to exchange information across the disconnected image windows. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the High-Resolution Transformer on both human pose estimation and semantic segmentation tasks, e.g., HRFormer outperforms Swin transformer by\u00a0<span id=\"MathJax-Element-1-Frame\" class=\"MathJax\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-1\" class=\"math\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-2\" class=\"mrow\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-3\" class=\"mn\">1.3<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0AP on COCO pose estimation with\u00a0<span id=\"MathJax-Element-2-Frame\" class=\"MathJax\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-4\" class=\"math\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-5\" class=\"mrow\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-6\" class=\"mn\">50<\/span><span id=\"MathJax-Span-7\" class=\"mi\">%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0fewer parameters and\u00a0<span id=\"MathJax-Element-3-Frame\" class=\"MathJax\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-8\" class=\"math\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-9\" class=\"mrow\"><span id=\"MathJax-Span-10\" class=\"mn\">30<\/span><span id=\"MathJax-Span-11\" class=\"mi\">%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a0fewer FLOPs.
