EfficientNet: Rethinking Model Scaling for Convolutional Neural Networks

Use Grid search to find the best combination of alpha, beta and gamma for EfficientNet-B1, as discussed in Section 3.3 in paper. Search space, tuner, configuration examples are provided here.

Instructions

Example code

  1. Set your working directory here in the example code directory.

  2. Run git clone https://github.com/ultmaster/EfficientNet-PyTorch to clone the ultmaster modified version of the original EfficientNet-PyTorch. The modifications were done to adhere to the original Tensorflow version as close as possible (including EMA, label smoothing and etc.); also added are the part which gets parameters from tuner and reports intermediate/final results. Clone it into EfficientNet-PyTorch; the files like main.py, train_imagenet.sh will appear inside, as specified in the configuration files.

  3. Run nnictl create --config config_local.yml (use config_pai.yml for OpenPAI) to find the best EfficientNet-B1. Adjust the training service (PAI/local/remote), batch size in the config files according to the environment.

For training on ImageNet, read EfficientNet-PyTorch/train_imagenet.sh. Download ImageNet beforehand and extract it adhering to PyTorch format and then replace /mnt/data/imagenet in with the location of the ImageNet storage. This file should also be a good example to follow for mounting ImageNet into the container on OpenPAI.

Results
