Question about full-shot setting
Closed this issue · 6 comments
Hello,
Thank you for your interesting work.
I have a question concerning the full-shot setting. When you compared TOPIC with other state-of-the-art approaches, how many exemplars did you use for these approaches? and did you choose the exemplars randomly or by herding?
Thank you.
Hi @EdenBelouadah, the number of the exemplars for other approaches is the same as that of the neural gas nodes, which is (400 + k * C), i.e., 400 exemplars in total for all the base classes and k=1 exemplar for each few-shot new class. The exemplars are selected randomly.
Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply.
In the paragraphe (The effect of the number of training samples). You say "We grow NG by adding 20 nodes for each new session, which we have 400 + 20(t-1) NG Nodes at session (t-1). I understand that for mini-imagenet (where we have 60 base classes and 40 incremental), you use 400 exemplars shared by all the 60 base classes, while for each new session, the 5 new classes will share 20 exemplars, it means each incremetal class will have 4 exemplars, is this right?
Also, can you provide the numerical values used to plot the figure 5(b), please ?
@EdenBelouadah, yes, for full-shot setting, its (400 + 20 * (t-1)) = (400 + 4 * C). Each incremental class will have 4 exemplars. The results of Fig.5 have been provided in Table 12 in supplementary materials, as well as more details on model selection and evaluation.

Thank you, it is much clearer now. One last question, are you reporting the top5 or the top1 accuracy in the paper?
Top-1 accuracy for all datasets.
Thank you very much for all the answers.
