EASY - Ensemble Augmented-Shot Y-shaped Learning: State-Of-The-Art Few-Shot Classification with Simple Ingredients.

This repository is the official implementation of EASY - Ensemble Augmented-Shot Y-shaped Learning: State-Of-The-Art Few-Shot Classification with Simple Ingredients.

EASY proposes a simple methodology, that reaches or even beats state of the art performance on multiple standardized benchmarks of the field, while adding almost no hyperparameters or parameters to those used for training the initial deep learning models on the generic dataset.

Downloads

Please click the Google Drive link for downloading the features, backbones and datasets.

Each of the files (backbones and features) have the following prefixes depending on the backbone:

Backbone	prefix	Number of parameters
ResNet12		12M
ResNet12(1/sqrt(2))	small	6M
ResNet12(1/2)	tiny	3M

Each of the features file is named as follow :

if not AS : " features .pt11"
if AS : " featuresAS .pt11"

Testing scripts for EASY

Run scripts to evaluate the features on FSL tasks for Y and ASY. For EY and EASY use the corresponding features.
