Reproducing the Map-Free and only Social-Context Results form the Ablation Study
SchDevel opened this issue · comments
Hey there,
I want to reproduce the results of your ablation study, where you only used Social-Context with EWTA-Loss.
However, I habe problems training the model only with social context.
What are the correct flags I need to set for preprocessing (run_preprocess.py) and for training (main.py)?
Looking forward hearing from you soon!
Best regards

Hi SchDevel, apologies for the delayed response - my CMU inbox is no longer active so I missed your initial email.
Unfortunately, there isn't a "simple" way to run this ablation with only social context using the current codebase. You'd likely have to remove the waypoint prediction step within WIMP_encoder.py
and make the corresponding changes in WIMP_decoder.py
.
I would've liked for this to be easier to reproduce and I'll try to make this something that's runnable with a single flag in the future, but I haven't been actively worked on this codebase in quite some time. Thanks for understanding!
Hey,
thank you for your response.
I want to compare an approach I am currently working on with your WIMP approach (because WIMP is very well-thought and has publicly available code).
One part of this is a comparison of the amount of learnable model parameters on your map-free experiment.
I tried to count these parameters in two different ways:
- Reimplementation of your model (without the polyline attention) with the implementation details given in the paper: ~23.000.000 learnable parameters
- Following your suggestion, I removed the whole centerline processing and the waypoint prediction part of your publicly available code: ~25.000.000 learnable parameters.
Therefore, in my comparison, I would conservatively describe that the results of your map-free evaluation were achieved with >20.000.000 learnable parameters.
Would you agree with this statement?
As already written, I will of course cite your paper accordingly.
Looking forward hearing from you soon!
Best regards
