Open-set Label Noise Can Improve Robustness Against Inherent Label Noise

NeurIPS 2021: This repository is the official implementation of ODNL.

Requirements

To install requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Training

To train the model(s) in the paper, run this command:

python train.py cifar10 --alg odnl -m wrn --noise_type symmetric --noise_rate 0.4 --exp_name test --gpu 0 --lambda_o 3.0

Evaluation

To evaluate the model on CIFAR-10, run:

python test.py cifar10 --method_name cifar10_symmetric_04_wrn_test_odnl --num_to_avg 10 --gpu 0 --seed 1 --prefetch 0 --out_as_pos

Hyperparameter

The best test accuracy (%) and the value of \eta on CIFAR-10/100 using vanilla ODNL is shown as follow:

Dataset	Method	Sym-20%	Sym-50%	Asym	Dependent	Open
CIFAR-10	Ours	91.06	82.50	90.00	85.37	91.47
-	\eta	2.5	2.5	3.0	3.5	2.0
CIFAR-100	Ours	68.82	54.08	58.61	62.45	66.95
-	\eta	1.0	1.0	2.0	2.0	1.0
