1.Dependent Packages and Platform

First we recommend to create a conda environment with all the required packages by using the following command.

conda env create -f environment.yml

This command creates a conda environment named CPrompt. You can activate the conda environment with the following command:

conda activate CPrompt

In the following sections, we assume that you use this conda environment or you manually install the required packages.

Note that you may need to adapt the environment.yml/requirements.txt files to your infrastructure. The configuration of these files was tested on Linux Platform with a GPU (RTX3080 Ti).

If you see the following error, you may need to install a PyTorch package compatible with your infrastructure.

RuntimeError: No HIP GPUs are available or ImportError: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

For example if your infrastructure only supports CUDA == 11.1, you may need to install the PyTorch package using CUDA11.1.

pip install torch==1.8.1+cu111 torchvision==0.9.1+cu111 torchaudio==0.8.1 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

2.Dataset

We have implemented the pre-processing of Split StanfordCars , Split ImageNet-R, Split CIFAR-100 and Split DomainNet. When training on Split CIFAR-100, this framework will automatically download it. When training on other datasets, you should specify the folder of your dataset in utils/data.py.

    def download_data(self):
        rootdir = "[DATA-PATH]"

• CIFAR-100: automatically download
• StanfordCars: retrieve from: https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/jessicali9530/stanford-cars-dataset?resource=download
• ImageNet-R: retrieve from: https://github.com/hendrycks/imagenet-r
• DomainNet: retrieve from: http://ai.bu.edu/M3SDA/

3.Run

• Split CIFAR-100

  python main.py --config=./exps/cifar100_vit.json
  

• Split StanfordCars

  python main.py --config=./exps/stanfordcars.json
  

• Split ImageNet-R

  python main.py --config=./exps/imagenetr.json
  

• Split DomainNet

  python main.py --config=./exps/domainnet.json
