Question about the Experiment of Image Multi-label Classification

[mymuli]

In the paper 《DiCENet: Dimension-wise Convolutions for Efficient Networks》, the network width scaling parameter s can be selected, but in the experiment of image multi-label classification, the experimental error of s=0.1 (when I run the corresponding program of s=0.2, the machine can't run, but the network parameter of s=0.1 is less than half) ... can you provide a program for s = 0.1?

[sacmehta]

Could you please elaborate on the error details?

[mymuli]

@sacmehta python train_classification.py --model dicenet \ --scheduler hybrid --clr-max 61 --lr 0.1 \ --data ./coco-image --dataset coco \ --epochs 100 --batch-size 64 --s 0.2

Execute the commands of the above program. When I set s to 0.2, the program would be stuck there because of the small memory of my machine graphics card.

×#×---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Table 1, when s = 0.2, FLOPs is 12M, and when s = 0.1, FLOPs is 6.5M. So I want to set s to 0.1.

python train_classification.py --model dicenet \ --scheduler hybrid --clr-max 61 --lr 0.1 \ --data ./coco-image --dataset coco \ --epochs 100 --batch-size 64 --s 0.1

In the experiment of image multi-label classification, execute the command of the above program. When I set s to 0.1, the program will report the error in the figure below.

So, Could you tell me how to do it? Thank you very much.

[sacmehta]

Uncomment this line and it should work. Note that we have not provided pretrained ImageNet weights at this configuration, so you might want to train on theImageNet first.

https://github.com/sacmehta/EdgeNets/blob/08f11290b2918f743dfe56f4f5f73e2b6213a17a/model/classification/dicenet_config.py#L7

@sacmehta Thank you very much for your reply. And I have another question.

In the paper 《ELASTIC: Improving CNNs with Dynamic Scaling Policies》, the data set used is mscoco 2014, the size of training set/verification set is 82783/40504, the data set cited in 《DiCENet: Dimension-wise Convolutions for Efficient Networks》 and《ESPNetv2: A Light-weight, Power Efficient, and General Purpose Convolutional Neural Network》 are mscoco 2014, but in the corresponding experiment of DiCENet, mscoco 2017 is used, and the training set/verification set is 118287/5000. Because of the difference between training set and test set in DiCENet paper, the comparison between DiCENet and ELASTI will not be a problem?

Code segment corresponding to ELASTIC：

Code segment corresponding to DiCENet：

[sacmehta]

In our paper, we used the same split as ELASTIC.

[sacmehta]

Since COCO2017 is the latest version, we provided the default values to 2017 split. You can change them if you want.

Dear Sir, I changed the program to the data set version of 2014, but after the first epoch of code running, the result was very bad.. At the beginning of the second epoch, the values of Precision and Recall were 0... How can I solve this problem? If possible, could you provide a program for the data set version of 2014? Thank you very much.

[sacmehta]

You need to use lesser value of learning rate. Try 0.005

[mymuli]

@sacmehta Dear Sir,

I use dicenet_s_0.2_imagenet_224x224.pth file to fine-tune on mscoco, using the following commands: python train_classification.py --model dicenet \ --scheduler fixed -- lr 0.005 \ --data 1-mscoco-image --dataset coco \ --epochs 4 --batch_size 64 --s 0.2 --finetune

The experimental process is as follows:

The results of each epoch are as follows: epoch-1: P_C 7.34 R_C 1.55 F_C 1.50 P_O 57.24 R_O 18.15 F_O 27.56
epoch-2: P_C 14.77 R_C 2.39 F_C 3.39 P_O 71.41 R_O 12.82 F_O 21.74
epoch-3: P_C 21.93 R_C 4.68 F_C 6.16 P_O 66.84 R_O 17.82 F_O 28.14
epoch-4: P_C 25.78 R_C 4.75 F_C 6.29 P_O 69.06 R_O 18.25 F_O 28.87

Although there are improvements in each round, the effect is not very great.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I used clr(scheduler ) to carry out another group of experiments. python train_classification.py --model dicenet \ --scheduler clr --lr 0.005 \ --data 1-mscoco-image --dataset coco \ --epochs 2 --batch_size 64 --s 0.2 --finetune

The experimental results are as follows:

In your training process, R_C and F_C are also slowly rising from a very small number (for example, in my experiment, 1.21/0.88)?

On my desktop, GTX 970, batch size is 64, each round takes 40 minutes. If it takes 2.7 days to train 100 rounds, I don't know if the F_C value can exceed 71.08 (ELASTIC).

Did my experiment go wrong? Can you give me some advice?

Thank you very much for your patient reply ！

[sacmehta]

With s=0.2, you cannot reach the value close to Elastic paper. You need to use the best Dicenet model.

Also, batch size of 64 is too small. Try using something like 512 for best results.

Since you are able to run the code and it is more of hyper-parameter tuning based on your machine setup which is beyond this repo, I am closing this issue.
