Extra-Chainer

Useful classes and functions implementation for Chainer, the deep learning framework.
Various novel methods are (and will be) implemented for examples,
and various CNN-models are available in .\models\ directory.

• .\models\
  • ShakeDrop
  • PGP: Parallel Grid Pooling
    • Use with .\links\multiplex_classifier.py.
  • Perturbative Neural Networks
  • PGPflip, extention of PGP.
  • FlipAugmentation, inspired from PGP.
  • SE-Net
    • PreResNet20_SE.py
  • competitive SE-Net
    • PreResNet20_CSE_WFC.py (double-FC version in original paper.)
    • PreResNet20_CSE.py (modified implementation)
  • ShuffleNet V2
    • PreResNet20_sv2.py (modified implementation for CIFAR)
    • PreResNet20_dwc_sv2.py (with depthwiseconv, modified implementation for CIFAR)
  • MixFeat
    • PreResNet20_mixfeat.py
  • FishNet
    • Fish* Net*.py (modified implementation for CIFAR)
    • Fish* Mix*.py (modified implementation for CIFAR, with MixFeat)
• .\iterators\
  • Between Class Learning
    • BCIterator.py
      • Use with .\functions\accuracy_mix.py and .\functions\kl_divergence.py.
        The code is refactor from original code for reusability.

Requirements

• Chainer (test on ver.6.0.0) (Neural network framework)
• ChainerCV (test on ver.0.8.0) (a Library for Deep Learning in Computer Vision)
• chainer-computational-cost (a tool to estimate theoretical computational cost in chainer)

Training example

# ordinary learning
python trainer.py --gpu [# of GPU] --model [ex.)models\PreResNet20.py]
# between class learning
python trainer_bcl.py --gpu [# of GPU] --model [ex.)models\PreResNet20.py]

• More information is in .\get_arguments.py

Send message to slack example

1. Get slack token and save as slack_token on root directory.
   To get token, please show here, thanks to @yuishihara.
2. Run below command. The option slack_interval means interval of epoch.
   *The example send message to slack channel bot.
   If you want to send to other channel, you rewrite SlackOut() to SlackOut(channel='xxx') in trainer.py.

python trainer.py --gpu [# of GPU] --model [ex.)models\PreResNet20.py] --slack_interval 10

links

Implementations of chainer.Link

• chain_modules
  • CNN module definer by array of keys such as 'I+CBRCB>R',
    where I=identity-mapping, B=BN, R=ReLU, C=Conv3x3, c=Conv1x1, etc...,
    '*'=productional connect, '+'=additional connect, ','=concatenation(axis=1) connect,
    '|'=concatenation(axis=0) connect, '>'=sequential connect,
    and 'integer' for example 2 or 4, denotes channel scaling factor.
  • And, you can add keys for your own new methods.
• network_modules
  • CNN Encoder definer using 'chain_modules.Module'.

In python script, write chain_modules and network_modules:

from chain_modules import Module
from network_modules import Encoder
import chainer.links as L

class MyCnnModel(chainer.Chain):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyCnnModel, self).__init__()
        with self.init_scope()
            ...
            # ResNet module definition
            self.res = Module(16, 32, 'I+CBRCB>R')
            # PreActResNet module definition
            self.pres = Module(16, 32, 'I+BRCBRC')
            # PreActResNet (bottleneck) module definition
            self.bres = Module(16, 32, 'I+BRcBRcBR4c')
            # ResNeXt module definition
            self.resx = Module(64, 128, 'I+BR8cBR8GBR4c', G=(lambda s: L.Convolution2D(None, s.ch, 3, s.stride, 1, group=8)))
            # DenseNet module definition
            self.dense = Module(16, 12, 'I,BRC')
            # Encoder part of ResNet20 definition
            self.res20 = Encoder((3, 3, 3), None, (16, 32, 64), 'I+CBRCB>R', 'A', None, (1, 1, 1))
            ...

• separable_link
  • Wrapper classes for making chainer 'link' separable.
    For example, create channel separable convolution from links.Convolution2D.

functions

Implementations of chainer.Function

• exadd
  • Extra addition function for Variables they have mismatch shapes.
    For example, it is able to used for merging branches with different channels in ResNetA.

models

Implementations of neural network models by chainer.Link.

• network_templates
  • template of neural network models,
    for example, ResNet, PyramidNet, DenseNet, DenseNet.

Various examples are available in the directory.

utils

Implementations of utility functions.

• model_info
  • Getter of string of model informations.
    For example, number of links, number of weights, number of parameters.
• utils.attention_shape(axes, shape)
  • get modified shape, remain length of axis in axes, reduce to '1' length of axis not in axes.
    For example, utils.attention((1, 2), (10, 20, 30, 40)) -> (1, 20, 30, 1).
