We evaluate this code with Pytorch 1.1 (cuda10) and torchvision 0.3.0, you can install pytorch with conda:
# install pytorch
conda install -y pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.0 -c pytorch
And you can use the following command to set up the environment:
# install packages
bash run/setup.sh
Current code base is tested under following environment:
- Python 3.7.3
- PyTorch 1.1
- torchvision 0.3.0
- numpy 1.14
- matplotlib 3.0.1
- scikit-learn 0.21.0
- easydict 1.8
- progress 1.4
- tensorboardX 1.7
If you already have the ImageNet dataset for pytorch, you could create a link to data folder and use it:
# prepare dataset, change the path to your own
ln -s /path/to/imagenet/ data/
If you do not have the ImageNet yet, you can download the ImageNet dataset and move validation images to labeled subfolders. To do this, you can use the following script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/soumith/imagenetloader.torch/master/valprep.sh
- You can run the bash file as following to search the quantization strategy for specific model.
bash run/run_search.sh
- Usage details
python rl_quantize.py --help
- After searching, you can get the quantization strategy list, and you can replace the strategy list in finetune.py to finetune and evaluate the performance on ImageNet dataset.
- We set the default quantization strategy searched under preserve ratio = 0.1 like:
# preserve ratio 10%
strategy = [6, 6, 5, 5, 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 3, 5, 4, 3, 5, 4, 3, 4, 4, 4, 2, 5, 4, 3, 3, 5, 3, 2, 5, 3, 2, 4, 3, 2, 5, 3, 2, 5, 3, 4, 2, 5, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4]
You can follow the following bash file to finetune the quantized model to get a better performance:
bash run/run_finetune.sh
- Usage details
python finetune.py --help
You can download the pretrained quantized model and evaluate it.
# download checkpoint
mkdir -p checkpoints/resnet50/
cd checkpoints/resnet50/
wget https://hanlab.mit.edu/files/haq/resnet50_0.1_75.48.pth.tar
cd ../..
# evaluate
bash run/run_eval.sh
Models | preserve ratio | Top1 Acc (%) | Top5 Acc (%) |
---|---|---|---|
resnet50 (original) | 1.0 | 76.15 | 92.87 |
resnet50 (10x compress) | 0.1 | 75.48 | 92.42 |
