Setup

Prerequisites

Installation

git clone https://github.com/stanford-futuredata/selection-via-proxy.git
cd selection-via-proxy
pip install -e .

or simply

pip install git+https://github.com/stanford-futuredata/selection-via-proxy.git

Quickstart

Perform active learning on CIFAR10 from the command line:

python -m svp.cifar active

Or from the python interpreter:

from svp.cifar.active import active
active()

"Selection via proxy" happens when --proxy-arch doesn't match --arch:

# ResNet20 selecting data for a ResNet164
python -m svp.cifar active --proxy-arch preact20 --arch preact164

For help, see python -m svp.cifar active --help or active()'s docstrinng.

Example Usage

Below are more examples of the command line interface that cover different datasets (e.g., CIFAR100, ImageNet, Amazon Review Polarity) and commands (e.g., train, coreset).

Basic Training

CIFAR10 and CIFAR100

Preliminaries

None. The CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 datasets will download if they don't exist in ./data/cifar10 and ./data/cifar100 respectively.

Examples
# Train ResNet164 with pre-activation (https://arxiv.org/abs/1603.05027) on CIFAR10.
python -m svp.cifar train --dataset cifar10 --arch preact164

Replace --dataset CIFAR10 with --dataset CIFAR100 to run on CIFAR100 rather than CIFAR10.

# Train ResNet164 with pre-activation (https://arxiv.org/abs/1603.05027) on CIFAR100.
python -m svp.cifar train --dataset cifar100 --arch preact164

The same is true for all the python -m svp.cifar commands below

ImageNet

Preliminaries
  • Download the ImageNet dataset into a directory called imagenet.
  • Extract the images.
# Extract train data.
mkdir train && mv ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar train/ && cd train
tar -xvf ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar && rm -f ILSVRC2012_img_train.tar
find . -name "*.tar" | while read NAME ; do mkdir -p "${NAME%.tar}"; tar -xvf "${NAME}" -C "${NAME%.tar}"; rm -f "${NAME}"; done
# Extract validation data.
cd ../ && mkdir val && mv ILSVRC2012_img_val.tar val/ && cd val && tar -xvf ILSVRC2012_img_val.tar
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/soumith/imagenetloader.torch/master/valprep.sh | bash
  • Replace /path/to/data in all the python -m svp.imagenet commands below with the path to the imagenet directory you created. Note, do not include imagenet in the path; the script will automatically do that.
Examples
# Train ResNet50 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385).
python -m svp.imagenet train --dataset-dir '/path/to/data' --arch resnet50 --num-workers 20

For convenience, you can use larger batch sizes and scale learning rates according to "Accurate, Large Minibatch SGD: Training ImageNet in 1 Hour" with --scale-learning-rates:

# Train ResNet50 with a batch size of 1048 and scaled learning rates accordingly.
python -m svp.imagenet train --dataset-dir '/path/to/data' --arch resnet50 --num-workers 20 \
    --batch-size 1048 --scale-learning-rates

Mixed precision training is also supported using apex. Apex isn't installed during the pip install instructions above, so please follow the installation instructions in the apex repository before running the command below.

# Use mixed precision training to train ResNet50 with a batch size of 1048 and scale learning rates accordingly.
python -m svp.imagenet train --dataset-dir '/path/to/data' --arch resnet50 --num-workers 20 \
    --batch-size 1048 --scale-learning-rates --fp16

Amazon Review Polarity and Full

Preliminaries
tar -xvzf amazon_review_full_csv.tar.gz
tar -xvzf amazon_review_polarity_csv.tar.gz
  • Replace /path/to/data in all the python -m svp.amazon commands below with the path to the root directory you created. Note, do not include amazon_review_full_csv or amazon_review_polarity_csv in the path; the script will automatically do that.
Examples
# Train VDCNN29 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.01781) on Amazon Review Polarity.
python -m svp.amazon train --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_polarity --arch vdcnn29-conv \
    --num-workers 4 --eval-num-workers 8

Replace --dataset amazon_review_polarity with --dataset amazon_review_full to run on Amazon Review Full rather than Amazon Review Polarity.

# Train VDCNN29 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.01781) on Amazon Review Full.
python -m svp.amazon train --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_full --arch vdcnn29-maxpool \
    --num-workers 4 --eval-num-workers 8

The same is true for all the python -m svp.amazon commands below

Active learning

Active learning selects points to label from a large pool of unlabeled data by repeatedly training a model on a small pool of labeled data and selecting additional examples to label based on the model’s uncertainty (e.g., the entropy of predicted class probabilities) or other heuristics. The commands below demonstrate how to perform active learning on CIFAR10, CIFAR100, ImageNet, Amazon Review Polarity and Amazon Review Full with a variety of models and selection methods.

CIFAR10 and CIFAR100

Baseline Approach
# Perform active learning with ResNet164 for both selection and the final predictions.
python -m svp.cifar active --dataset cifar10 --arch preact164 --num-workers 4 \
	--selection-method least_confidence \
	--initial-subset 1000 \
	--round 4000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000
Selection via Proxy

If the model architectures (arch vs proxy_arch) or the learning rate schedules don't match, "selection via proxy" (SVP) is performed and two separate models are trained. The proxy is used for selecting which examples to label, while the target is only used for evaluating the quality of the selection. By default, the target model (arch) is trained and evaluated after each selection round. To change this behavior set eval_target_at to evaluate at a specific labeling budget(s) or set train_target to False to skip evaluating the target model.

# Perform active learning with ResNet20 for selection and ResNet164 for the final predictions.
python -m svp.cifar active --dataset cifar10 --arch preact164 --num-workers 4 \
	--selection-method least_confidence --proxy-arch preact20 \
	--initial-subset 1000 \
	--round 4000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--eval-target-at 25000

To train the proxy for fewer epochs, use the --proxy-* options as shown below:

# Perform active learning with ResNet20 after only 50 epochs for selection.
python -m svp.cifar active --dataset cifar10 --arch preact164 --num-workers 4 \
	--selection-method least_confidence --proxy-arch preact20 \
	--proxy-learning-rate 0.01 --proxy-epochs 1 \
	--proxy-learning-rate 0.1 --proxy-epochs 45 \
	--proxy-learning-rate 0.01 --proxy-epochs 4 \
	--initial-subset 1000 \
	--round 4000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--round 5000 \
	--eval-target-at 25000

# Perform active learning with ResNet18 for selection and ResNet50 for the final predictions.
python -m svp.imagenet active --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --arch resnet50 --num-workers 20 \
    --proxy-arch resnet18 --proxy-batch-size 1028 --proxy-scale-learning-rates \
    --eval-target-at 512467

To train the proxy for fewer epochs, use the --proxy-* options as shown below:

# Perform active learning with ResNet18 after only 45 epochs for selection.
python -m svp.imagenet active --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --arch resnet50 --num-workers 20 \
    --proxy-arch resnet18 --proxy-batch-size 1028 --proxy-scale-learning-rates \
    --eval-target-at 512467 \
    --proxy-learning-rate 0.0167 --proxy-epochs 1 \

Amazon Review Polarity and Full

Baseline Approach
# Perform active learning with VDCNN29 for both selection and the final predictions.
python -m svp.amazon active --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_polarity  --num-workers 8 \
    --arch vdcnn29-conv --selection-method least_confidence

You can evaluate a series of selections later using the precomputed_selection option.

# Perform active learning with VDCNN9 for selection and VDCNN29 for the final predictions.
python -m svp.amazon active --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_polarity --num-workers 8 \
    --arch vdcnn29-conv --selection-method least_confidence \
    --proxy-arch vdcnn9-maxpool --eval-target-at 1440000

To use fastText as a proxy, Install fastText 0.1.0 and replace /path/to/fastText/fasttext in the python -m svp.amazon fasttext commands below with the path to the fastText binary you created.

# For convenience, save fastText results in a separate directory
mkdir fasttext
# Perform active learning with fastText.
python -m svp.amazon fasttext '/path/to/fastText/fasttext' --run-dir fasttext \
    --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_polarity --selection-method least_confidence \
    --size 72000 --size 360000 --size 720000 --size 1080000 --size 1440000
# Get the most recent timestamp from the fasttext directory.
fasttext_path="fasttext/$(ls fasttext | sort -nr | head -n 1)"
# Use selected labeled data from fastText to train VDCNN29
python -m svp.amazon active --datasets-dir '/path/to/data' --dataset amazon_review_polarity --num-workers 8 \
    --arch vdcnn29-conv --selection-method least_confidence \
    --precomputed-selection $fasttext_path --eval-target-at 1440000

Core-set Selection

Core-set selection techniques start with a large labeled or unlabeled dataset and aim to find a small subset that accurately approximates the full dataset by selecting representative examples. The commands below demonstrate how to perform core-set selection on CIFAR10, CIFAR100, ImageNet, Amazon Review Polarity and Amazon Review Full with a variety of models and selection methods.
