Hi!

Thanks so much for making this resource available, it is very useful as a quick benchmark for new ideas. I was wondering if you used in your papers (v1 and v2) resnets trained started from Imagenet weights? It seems from your code that the default is False, so they would be trained from scratch, but the papers do not mention this detail, I think, and I just wanted to double-check with you..

Thanks!

Hi @agaldran,

We don’t use pretraining to avoid any confounders in analysis. We have also tried the pretraining, there seems no significant difference (but we don’t have statistic analysis). It should be very easy to try if you need to know ;)
