ResNeXt101_32x8d

Model description

A ResNeXt repeats a building block that aggregates a set of transformations with the same topology. Compared to a ResNet, it exposes a new dimension, cardinality (the size of the set of transformations) , as an essential factor in addition to the dimensions of depth and width.

Step 1: Installing

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Sign up and login in ImageNet official website, then choose 'Download' to download the whole ImageNet dataset. Specify /path/to/imagenet to your ImageNet path in later training process.

The ImageNet dataset path structure should look like:

imagenet
├── train
│   └── n01440764
│       ├── n01440764_10026.JPEG
│       └── ...
├── train_list.txt
├── val
│   └── n01440764
│       ├── ILSVRC2012_val_00000293.JPEG
│       └── ...
└── val_list.txt

Step 2: Training

Multiple GPUs on one machine

Set data path by export DATA_PATH=/path/to/imagenet. The following command uses all cards to train:

bash train_resnext101_32x8d_amp_dist.sh
