Installation

Requirements for Pytorch (see Pytorch installation instructions)

Examples:

CIFAR10

ResNet-20 baseline on CIFAR10: python cifar.py --dataset cifar10 --arch resnet --depth 20

ResNet-20 + Random Erasing on CIFAR10: python cifar.py --dataset cifar10 --arch resnet --depth 20 --p 0.5

CIFAR100

ResNet-20 baseline on CIFAR100: python cifar.py --dataset cifar100 --arch resnet --depth 20

ResNet-20 + Random Erasing on CIFAR100: python cifar.py --dataset cifar100 --arch resnet --depth 20 --p 0.5

Fashion-MNIST

ResNet-20 baseline on Fashion-MNIST: python fashionmnist.py --dataset fashionmnist --arch resnet --depth 20

ResNet-20 + Random Erasing on Fashion-MNIST: python fashionmnist.py --dataset fashionmnist --arch resnet --depth 20 --p 0.5

Other architectures

For ResNet: --arch resnet --depth (20, 32, 44, 56, 110)

For WRN: --arch wrn --depth 28 --widen-factor 10
