solo-learn

A library of self-supervised methods for unsupervised visual representation learning powered by PyTorch Lightning. We aim at providing SOTA self-supervised methods in a comparable environment while, at the same time, implementing training tricks. The library is self-contained, but it is possible to use the models outside of solo-learn. More details in our paper.

Methods available


Extra flavor

Backbones

Data

  • Increased data processing speed by up to 100% using Nvidia Dali.
  • Flexible augmentations.

Evaluation

  • Online linear evaluation via stop-gradient for easier debugging and prototyping (optionally available for the momentum backbone as well).
  • Standard offline linear evaluation.
  • Online and offline K-NN evaluation.
  • Automatic feature space visualization with UMAP.

Training tricks

  • All the perks of PyTorch Lightning (mixed precision, gradient accumulation, clipping, and much more).
  • Channel last conversion
  • Multi-cropping dataloading following SwAV:
    • Note: currently, only SimCLR, BYOL and SwAV support this.
  • Exclude batchnorm and biases from weight decay and LARS.
  • No LR scheduler for the projection head (as in SimSiam).

Logging

  • Metric logging on the cloud with WandB
  • Custom model checkpointing with a simple file organization.

Requirements

  • torch
  • torchvision
  • tqdm
  • einops
  • wandb
  • pytorch-lightning
  • lightning-bolts
  • torchmetrics
  • scipy
  • timm

Optional:

  • nvidia-dali
  • matplotlib
  • seaborn
  • pandas
  • umap-learn

Installation

First clone the repo.

Then, to install solo-learn with Dali and/or UMAP support, use:

pip3 install .[dali,umap,h5] --extra-index-url https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/redist

If no Dali/UMAP/H5 support is needed, the repository can be installed as:

pip3 install .

For local development:

pip3 install -e .[umap,h5]
# Make sure you have pre-commit hooks installed
pre-commit install

NOTE: if you are having trouble with dali, install it following their guide.

NOTE 2: consider installing Pillow-SIMD for better loading times when not using Dali.

NOTE 3: Soon to be on pip.


Training

For pretraining the backbone, follow one of the many bash files in scripts/pretrain/. We are now using Hydra to handle the config files, so the common syntax is something like:

python3 main_pretrain.py \
    # path to training script folder
    --config-path scripts/pretrain/imagenet-100/ \
    # training config name
    --config-name barlow.yaml
    # add new arguments (e.g. those not defined in the yaml files)
    # by doing ++new_argument=VALUE
    # pytorch lightning's arguments can be added here as well.

After that, for offline linear evaluation, follow the examples in scripts/linear or scripts/finetune for finetuning the whole backbone.

For k-NN evaluation and UMAP visualization check the scripts in scripts/{knn,umap}.

NOTE: Files try to be up-to-date and follow as closely as possible the recommended parameters of each paper, but check them before running.

Model Zoo

All pretrained models avaiable can be downloaded directly via the tables below or programmatically by running one of the following scripts zoo/cifar10.sh, zoo/cifar100.sh, zoo/imagenet100.sh and zoo/imagenet.sh.


Results

Note: hyperparameters may not be the best, we will be re-running the methods with lower performance eventually.

🚀 methods where hyperparameters were heavily tuned.

😪 ViT is very compute intensive and unstable, so we are slowly running larger architectures and with a larger batch size. Atm, total batch size is 128 and we needed to use float32 precision. If you want to contribute by running it, let us know!

Training efficiency for DALI

We report the training efficiency of some methods using a ResNet18 with and without DALI (4 workers per GPU) in a server with an Intel i9-9820X and two RTX2080ti.

Method Dali Total time for 20 epochs Time for a 1 epoch GPU memory (per GPU)
Barlow Twins 1h 38m 27s 4m 55s 5097 MB
✔️ 43m 2s 2m 10s (56% faster) 9292 MB
BYOL 1h 38m 46s 4m 56s 5409 MB
✔️ 50m 33s 2m 31s (49% faster) 9521 MB
NNCLR 1h 38m 30s 4m 55s 5060 MB
✔️ 42m 3s 2m 6s (64% faster) 9244 MB

Note: GPU memory increase doesn't scale with the model, rather it scales with the number of workers.
