Introduction

For each competition, personal, or freelance project involving images + Convolution Neural Networks, I build on top of an evolving collection of code and models. This repo contains a (somewhat) cleaned up and paired down iteration of that code. Hopefully it'll be of use to others.

The work of many others is present here. I've tried to make sure all source material is acknowledged:

Training/validation scripts evolved from early versions of the PyTorch Imagenet Examples
CUDA specific performance enhancements have been pulled from NVIDIA's APEX Examples
LR scheduler ideas from AllenNLP, FAIRseq, and SGDR: Stochastic Gradient Descent with Warm Restarts (https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03983)
Random Erasing from Zhun Zhong (https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.04896)
Optimizers:
- RAdam by Liyuan Liu (https://arxiv.org/abs/1908.03265)
- NovoGrad by Masashi Kimura (https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.11286)
- Lookahead adapted from impl by Liam (https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.08610)

Models

I've included a few of my favourite models, but this is not an exhaustive collection. You can't do better than Cadene's collection in that regard. Most models do have pretrained weights from their respective sources or original authors.

Included models:

ResNet/ResNeXt (from torchvision with mods by myself)

- Original variant from Cadene
- MXNet Gluon 'modified aligned' Xception-65 and 71 models from Gluon ModelZoo
PNasNet & NASNet-A (from Cadene)
DPN (from me, weights hosted by Cadene)
- DPN-68, DPN-68b, DPN-92, DPN-98, DPN-131, DPN-107
EfficientNet (from my standalone GenMobileNet) - A generic model that implements many of the efficient models that utilize similar DepthwiseSeparable and InvertedResidual blocks
- EfficientNet AdvProp (B0-B8) (https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.09665) -- TF weights ported
- EfficientNet (B0-B7) (https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.11946) -- TF weights ported, B0-B2 finetuned PyTorch

Use the --model arg to specify model for train, validation, inference scripts. Match the all lowercase creation fn for the model you'd like.

Features

Several (less common) features that I often utilize in my projects are included. Many of their additions are the reason why I maintain my own set of models, instead of using others' via PIP:

All models have a common default configuration interface and API for
- accessing/changing the classifier - get_classifier and reset_classifier
- doing a forward pass on just the features - forward_features
- these makes it easy to write consistent network wrappers that work with any of the models
All models have a consistent pretrained weight loader that adapts last linear if necessary, and from 3 to 1 channel input if desired
The train script works in several process/GPU modes:
- NVIDIA DDP w/ a single GPU per process, multiple processes with APEX present (AMP mixed-precision optional)
- PyTorch DistributedDataParallel w/ multi-gpu, single process (AMP disabled as it crashes when enabled)
- PyTorch w/ single GPU single process (AMP optional)
A dynamic global pool implementation that allows selecting from average pooling, max pooling, average + max, or concat([average, max]) at model creation. All global pooling is adaptive average by default and compatible with pretrained weights.
A 'Test Time Pool' wrapper that can wrap any of the included models and usually provide improved performance doing inference with input images larger than the training size. Idea adapted from original DPN implementation when I ported (https://github.com/cypw/DPNs)
Training schedules and techniques that provide competitive results (Cosine LR, Random Erasing, Label Smoothing, etc)
Mixup (as in https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.09412) - currently implementing/testing
An inference script that dumps output to CSV is provided as an example
AutoAugment (https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.09501) and RandAugment (https://arxiv.org/abs/1909.13719) ImageNet configurations modeled after impl for EfficientNet training (https://github.com/tensorflow/tpu/blob/master/models/official/efficientnet/autoaugment.py)
AugMix w/ JSD loss (https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.02781), JSD w/ clean + augmented mixing support works with AutoAugment and RandAugment as well
SplitBachNorm - allows splitting batch norm layers between clean and augmented (auxiliary batch norm) data

Results

A CSV file containing an ImageNet-1K validation results summary for all included models with pretrained weights and default configurations is located here

Self-trained Weights

I've leveraged the training scripts in this repository to train a few of the models with missing weights to good levels of performance. These numbers are all for 224x224 training and validation image sizing with the usual 87.5% validation crop.

Models with *tfp next to them were scored with --tf-preprocessing flag.

The tf_efficientnet, tf_mixnet models require an equivalent for 'SAME' padding as their arch results in asymmetric padding. I've added this in the model creation wrapper, but it does come with a performance penalty.

Training Hyperparameters

EfficientNet-B2 with RandAugment - 80.4 top-1, 95.1 top-5

These params are for dual Titan RTX cards with NVIDIA Apex installed:

./distributed_train.sh 2 /imagenet/ --model efficientnet_b2 -b 128 --sched step --epochs 450 --decay-epochs 2.4 --decay-rate .97 --opt rmsproptf --opt-eps .001 -j 8 --warmup-lr 1e-6 --weight-decay 1e-5 --drop 0.3 --drop-connect 0.2 --model-ema --model-ema-decay 0.9999 --aa rand-m9-mstd0.5 --remode pixel --reprob 0.2 --amp --lr .016

MixNet-XL with RandAugment - 80.5 top-1, 94.9 top-5

This params are for dual Titan RTX cards with NVIDIA Apex installed:

./distributed_train.sh 2 /imagenet/ --model mixnet_xl -b 128 --sched step --epochs 450 --decay-epochs 2.4 --decay-rate .969 --opt rmsproptf --opt-eps .001 -j 8 --warmup-lr 1e-6 --weight-decay 1e-5 --drop 0.3 --drop-connect 0.2 --model-ema --model-ema-decay 0.9999 --aa rand-m9-mstd0.5 --remode pixel --reprob 0.3 --amp --lr .016 --dist-bn reduce

SE-ResNeXt-26-D and SE-ResNeXt-26-T

These hparams (or similar) work well for a wide range of ResNet architecture, generally a good idea to increase the epoch # as the model size increases... ie approx 180-200 for ResNe(X)t50, and 220+ for larger. Increase batch size and LR proportionally for better GPUs or with AMP enabled. These params were for 2 1080Ti cards:

./distributed_train.sh 2 /imagenet/ --model seresnext26t_32x4d --lr 0.1 --warmup-epochs 5 --epochs 160 --weight-decay 1e-4 --sched cosine --reprob 0.4 --remode pixel -b 112

EfficientNet-B3 with RandAugment - 81.5 top-1, 95.7 top-5

The training of this model started with the same command line as EfficientNet-B2 w/ RA above. After almost three weeks of training the process crashed. The results weren't looking amazing so I resumed the training several times with tweaks to a few params (increase RE prob, decrease rand-aug, increase ema-decay). Nothing looked great. I ended up averaging the best checkpoints from all restarts. The result is mediocre at default res/crop but oddly performs much better with a full image test crop of 1.0.

EfficientNet-B0 with RandAugment - 77.7 top-1, 95.3 top-5

Michael Klachko achieved these results with the command line for B2 adapted for larger batch size, with the recommended B0 dropout rate of 0.2.

./distributed_train.sh 2 /imagenet/ --model efficientnet_b0 -b 384 --sched step --epochs 450 --decay-epochs 2.4 --decay-rate .97 --opt rmsproptf --opt-eps .001 -j 8 --warmup-lr 1e-6 --weight-decay 1e-5 --drop 0.2 --drop-connect 0.2 --model-ema --model-ema-decay 0.9999 --aa rand-m9-mstd0.5 --remode pixel --reprob 0.2 --amp --lr .048

ResNet50 with JSD loss and RandAugment (clean + 2x RA augs) - 79.04 top-1, 94.39 top-5

Trained on two older 1080Ti cards, this took a while. Only slightly, non statistically better ImageNet validation result than my first good AugMix training of 78.99. However, these weights are more robust on tests with ImageNetV2, ImageNet-Sketch, etc. Unlike my first AugMix runs, I've enabled SplitBatchNorm, disabled random erasing on the clean split, and cranked up random erasing prob on the 2 augmented paths.

./distributed_train.sh 2 /imagenet -b 64 --model resnet50 --sched cosine --epochs 200 --lr 0.05 --amp --remode pixel --reprob 0.6 --aug-splits 3 --aa rand-m9-mstd0.5-inc1 --resplit --split-bn --jsd --dist-bn reduce

Usage

Environment

All development and testing has been done in Conda Python 3 environments on Linux x86-64 systems, specifically Python 3.6.x and 3.7.x. Little to no care has been taken to be Python 2.x friendly and I don't plan to support it. If you run into any challenges running on Windows, or other OS, I'm definitely open to looking into those issues so long as it's in a reproducible (read Conda) environment.

PyTorch versions 1.2 and 1.3.1 have been tested with this code.

I've tried to keep the dependencies minimal, the setup is as per the PyTorch default install instructions for Conda:

conda create -n torch-env
conda activate torch-env
conda install -c pytorch pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10
conda install pyyaml

Pip

This package can be installed via pip. Currently, the model factory (timm.create_model) is the most useful component to use via a pip install.

Install (after conda env/install):

pip install timm

Use:

>>> import timm
>>> m = timm.create_model('mobilenetv3_100', pretrained=True)
>>> m.eval()

Scripts

A train, validation, inference, and checkpoint cleaning script included in the github root folder. Scripts are not currently packaged in the pip release.

Training

The variety of training args is large and not all combinations of options (or even options) have been fully tested. For the training dataset folder, specify the folder to the base that contains a train and validation folder.

To train an SE-ResNet34 on ImageNet, locally distributed, 4 GPUs, one process per GPU w/ cosine schedule, random-erasing prob of 50% and per-pixel random value:

./distributed_train.sh 4 /data/imagenet --model seresnet34 --sched cosine --epochs 150 --warmup-epochs 5 --lr 0.4 --reprob 0.5 --remode pixel --batch-size 256 -j 4

NOTE: NVIDIA APEX should be installed to run in per-process distributed via DDP or to enable AMP mixed precision with the --amp flag

Validation / Inference

Validation and inference scripts are similar in usage. One outputs metrics on a validation set and the other outputs topk class ids in a csv. Specify the folder containing validation images, not the base as in training script.

To validate with the model's pretrained weights (if they exist):

python validate.py /imagenet/validation/ --model seresnext26_32x4d --pretrained

To run inference from a checkpoint:

python inference.py /imagenet/validation/ --model mobilenetv3_100 --checkpoint ./output/model_best.pth.tar

TODO

A number of additions planned in the future for various projects, incl

Do a model performance (speed + accuracy) benchmarking across all models (make runable as script)
Complete feature map extraction across all model types and build obj detection/segmentation models and scripts (or integrate backbones with mmdetection, detectron2)
