Requirements

• Python >= 3.7.6
• PyTorch >= 1.4
• torchvision >= 0.5.0
• faiss-gpu >= 1.6.1

Training

Following command can be used to train the ISD ResNet18 method

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 python train_isd.py \
  --save_freq 5 \
  --num_workers 16 \
  --print_freq 100 \
  --queue_size 128000 \
  --temp 0.020 \
  --epochs 200 \
  --lr_decay_epochs '140,180' \
  --arch resnet18 \
  --checkpoint_path output/isd_1_t_020_augv2_lr_decay_140_180_epochs_200_resnet18 \
  /datasets/imagenet

To train ISD ResNet50 use following command:

python train_isd_plus.py \
  --num_workers 24 \
  --print_freq 100 \
  --momentum 0.99 \
  --queue_size 128000 \
  --temp_t 0.01 \
  --temp_s 0.1 \
  --learning_rate 0.05 \
  --epochs 200  \
  --cos \
  --arch resnet50 \
  --weak_strong \
  --checkpoint_path <CHECKPOINT PATH> \
  <DATASET PATH>

Following command can be used to train the BYOL method. This version of BYOL works with small batchces (256) and SGD optimizer.

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 python train_byol.py \
  --save_freq 5 \
  --print_freq 100 \
  --num_workers 12 \
  --cos \
  --learning_rate 0.05 \
  --epochs 200 \
  --momentum 0.99 \
  --arch resnet18 \
  --checkpoint_path output/byol_1_full_imagenet_augv2_m_0x99_cos_lr_05_epochs_200_resnet18 \
  /datasets/imagenet
