News and Updates

12/22/2021

  • The results of BestAcc have been updated! Note that we still have some experiments running in Azure, the current results will still be upadted and we will update all results and upload logs if all things done. I use single P100 for CIFAR-10 and SVHN, single P40 for STL-10, signle V100-32G for CIFAR-100.
  • We are using hundreds of GPUs of Azure to re-run all the experiments in the paper. We will clarify the gpu for each algorithm and dataset. Besides, we will make all the log files available soon.

Introduction

TorchSSL is an all-in-one toolkit based on PyTorch for semi-supervised learning (SSL). Currently, we implmented 9 popular SSL algorithms to enable fair comparison and boost the development of SSL algorithms.

Supported algorithms: In addition to fully-supervised (as a baseline), TorchSSL supports the following popular algorithms:

  1. PiModel (NeurIPS 2015) [1]
  2. MeanTeacher (NeurIPS 2017) [2]
  3. PseudoLabel (ICML 2013) [3]
  4. VAT (Virtual adversarial training, TPAMI 2018) [4]
  5. MixMatch (NeurIPS 2019) [5]
  6. UDA (Unsupervised data augmentation, NeurIPS 2020) [6]
  7. ReMixMatch (ICLR 2019) [7]
  8. FixMatch (NeurIPS 2020) [8]
  9. FlexMatch (NeurIPS 2021) [9]

Besides, we implement our Curriculum Pseudo Labeling (CPL) method for Pseudo-Label (Flex-Pseudo-Label) and UDA (Flex-UDA).

Supported datasets: TorchSSL currently supports 5 popular datasets in SSL research:

  1. CIFAR-10
  2. CIFAR-100
  3. STL-10
  4. SVHN
  5. ImageNet

Main Results

The results are best accuracies with standard errors. In the results, "40", "250", "1000" etc. under the dataset row denote different numbers of labeled samples (e.g., "40" in CIFAR-10 means that there are only 4 labeled samples for each class). We use random seed 0,1,2 for all experiments. All configs are included under the config/ folder. You can directly cite these results in your own research.

Usage

Before running or modifing the code, you need to:

  1. Clone this repo to your machine.
  2. Make sure Anaconda or Miniconda is installed.
  3. Run conda env create -f environment.yml for environment initialization.

Run the experiments

It is convenient to perform experiment with TorchSSL. For example, if you want to run FlexMatch algorithm:

  1. Modify the config file in config/flexmatch/flexmatch.yaml as you need
  2. Run python flexmatch.py --c config/flexmatch/flexmatch.yaml

Customization

If you want to write your own algorithm, please follow the following steps:

  1. Create a directory for your algorithm, e.g., SSL, write your own model file SSl/SSL.py in it.
  2. Write the training file in SSL.py
  3. Write the config file in config/SSL/SSL.yaml

Statements

For ImageNet datasets: Please download the ImageNet 2014 dataset (unchanged from 2012) from the official site (link: https://image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/2012-downloads.php) Extract the train and the test set into subfolders (the val set is not used), and put them under train/ and val/ respectively. Each subfolder will represent a class. Note: the offical test set is not zipped into subfolders by classes, you may want to use: https://github.com/jiweibo/ImageNet/blob/master/valprep.sh, which is a nice script for preparing the file structure.
