While Transformer-based architectures have shown strong performance in many domains, their straightforward application to dense (i.e., pixel-level) regression tasks often yields suboptimal results. In particular, the patch size has a crucial impact on the model performance. In this work, we consider pixel-level attention schemes and show that the resulting models generally outperform those relying on larger patch sizes. However, pixel-level attention can be a prohibitively resource-intensive operation. For this reason, we conduct an ext
