Implementation of the paper "Self-Promoted Prototype Refinement for Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning"

Self-Promoted Prototype Refinement for Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning

This is the implementation of the paper "Self-Promoted Prototype Refinement for Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning" (accepted to CVPR2021).

For more information, check out the paper on [arXiv].

Requirements

• Python 3.8
• PyTorch 1.8.1 (>1.1.0)
• cuda 11.2

Preparing Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning Datasets

Download following datasets:

1. CIFAR-100

Automatically downloaded on torchvision.

2. MiniImageNet

(1) Download MiniImageNet train/test images[github], and prepare related datasets according to [TOPIC].

(2) or Download processed data from our Google Drive: [mini-imagenet.zip], (and locate the entire folder under datasets/ directory).

3. CUB200

(1) Download CUB200 train/test images, and prepare related datasets according to [TOPIC]:

wget http://www.vision.caltech.edu/visipedia-data/CUB-200-2011/CUB_200_2011.tgz

(2) or Download processed data from our Google Drive: [cub.zip], (and locate the entire folder under datasets/ directory).

Create a directory '../datasets' for the above three datasets and appropriately place each dataset to have following directory structure:

../                                                        # parent directory

    │   └── ..some csv files..
    └── cub/                                   # (dir.) contains 200 object classes
        ├── train/                             # (dir.) training images (from Google Drive)

Training

Choose apporopriate lines in train.sh file.

sh train.sh

• '--base_epochs' can be modified to control the initial accuracy ('Our' vs 'Our*' in our paper).
• Training takes approx. several hours until convergence (trained with one 2080 Ti or 3090 GPUs).

Testing

1. Download pretrained models to the 'pre' folder.

Pretrained models are available on our [Google Drive].

2. Test

Choose apporopriate lines in test.sh file.

sh test.sh
