Usage
1. Requirements
- Install PyTorch 1.7.0+ and torchvision 0.8.1+, for example:
conda install -c pytorch pytorch torchvision
- Install pytorch-image-models 0.3.2, for example:
pip install timm==0.3.2
-
Download the ImageNet dataset from http://image-net.org/, and move validation images to labeled subfolders
- To do this, you can use the following script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/soumith/imagenetloader.torch/master/valprep.shvalprep.sh
2. Retrain or Evaluate our BossNet-T models
-
First, move to retraining code directory to perform Retraining or Evaluation.
cd HyTra_retrainingOur retraining code of BossNet-T is based on DeiT repository.
-
You can evaluate our BossNet-T models with the following command:
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=4 --use_env main.py --model bossnet_T0 --input-size 224 --batch-size 128 --data-path /PATH/TO/ImageNet --num_workers 8 --eval --resume PATH/TO/BossNet-T0-80_8.pth
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=4 --use_env main.py --model bossnet_T1 --input-size 224 --batch-size 128 --data-path /PATH/TO/ImageNet --num_workers 8 --eval --resume PATH/TO/BossNet-T1-81_9.pth
Please download our checkpoint files from the result table. Please change the
--nproc_per_nodeoption to suit your GPU numbers, and change the--data-path,--resumeand--input-sizeaccordingly. -
You can retrain our BossNet-T models with the following command:
Please change the
--nproc_per_nodeand--data-pathaccordingly. Note that the learning rate will be automatically scaled according to the GPU numbers and batchsize. We recommend training with 128 batchsize and 8 GPUs.python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env main.py --model bossnet_T0 --input-size 224 --batch-size 128 --data-path /PATH/TO/ImageNet --num_workers 8
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 --use_env main.py --model bossnet_T1 --input-size 224 --batch-size 128 --data-path /PATH/TO/ImageNet --num_workers 8
