Description

Hi,

Is there any interest in adding the ConvNeXt architecture to MONAI? It is a modern version of a ConvNet using current best practices based on this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.03545.

The code for ConvNeXt are available here: https://github.com/facebookresearch/ConvNeXt

If there is interest, I can look into contributing a PR for this architecture.
