Steps for Training

0. Create your primary directoy and enter it.

1. Create folders save, args, split, to save the trained model, arguments, and train-val split respectively.

2. git clone https://github.com/purvaten/treat.git

3. Train model

python treat/train.py \
--alpha 0.25 \
--data cliparts,letters \
--cliparts_dir treat/clipart_imgs \
--letters_dir treat/letter_imgs \
--datalimit 40250 \
--model alexnet

where treat/clipart_imgs and treat/letter_imgs should contain the clipart and letter images respectively for training. They each currently contain a single prototype image only.

NOTE : The letter images must be named in a specific format : TYPE + LETTER + ID, where TYPE = upper or lower, LETTER = a, b, ... z, and ID is a number (optional). For example, lowera1.png, upperb4.png, etc.
