supervised-reptile

Reptile training code for Omniglot and Mini-ImageNet.

Reptile is a meta-learning algorithm that finds a good initialization. It works by sampling a task, training on the sampled task, and then updating the initialization towards the new weights for the task.

Getting the data

The fetch_data.sh script creates a data/ directory and downloads Omniglot and Mini-ImageNet into it. The data is on the order of 5GB, so the download takes 10-20 minutes on a reasonably fast internet connection.

$ ./fetch_data.sh
Fetching omniglot/images_background ...
Extracting omniglot/images_background ...
Fetching omniglot/images_evaluation ...
Extracting omniglot/images_evaluation ...
Fetching Mini-ImageNet train set ...
Fetching wnid: n01532829
Fetching wnid: n01558993
Fetching wnid: n01704323
Fetching wnid: n01749939
...

If you want to download Omniglot but not Mini-ImageNet, you can simply kill the script after it starts downloading Mini-ImageNet. The script automatically deletes partially-downloaded data when it is killed early.

Reproducing training runs

You can train models with the run_omniglot.py and run_miniimagenet.py scripts. Hyper-parameters are specified as flags (see --help for a detailed list). Here are the commands used for the paper:

# 5-shot 20-way Omniglot.

Training creates checkpoints. Currently, you cannot resume training from a checkpoint, but you can re-run evaluation from a checkpoint by passing --pretrained. You can use TensorBoard on the checkpoint directories to see approximate learning curves during training and testing.

To evaluate with transduction, pass the --transductive flag. In this implementation, transductive evaluation is faster than non-transductive evaluation since it makes better use of batches.

Comparing different inner-loop gradient combinations

Here are the commands for comparing different gradient combinations. The --foml flag indicates that only the final gradient should be used.

# Shared hyper-parameters for all experiments.
shared="--sgd --seed 0 --inner-batch 25 --learning-rate 0.003 --meta-step-final 0 --meta-iters 40000 --eval-batch 25 --eval-iters 5 --eval-interval 1"

python run_omniglot.py --inner-iters 1 --train-shots 5 --meta-step 0.25 --checkpoint g1_ckpt $shared | tee g1.txt

python run_omniglot.py --inner-iters 2 --train-shots 10 --meta-step 0.25 --checkpoint g1_g2_ckpt $shared | tee g1_g2.txt
