pytorch-fid-wrapper

A simple wrapper around @mseitzer's great pytorch-fid work.

The goal is to compute the Fréchet Inception Distance between two sets of images in-memory using PyTorch.

Installation

pip install pytorch-fid-wrapper

Requires (and will install) (as pytorch-fid):

• Python >= 3.5
• Pillow
• Numpy
• Scipy
• Torch
• Torchvision

Usage

import  pytorch_fid_wrapper as pfw

# ---------------------------
# -----  Initial Setup  -----
# ---------------------------

# Optional: set pfw's configuration with your parameters once and for all
pfw.set_config(batch_size=BATCH_SIZE, dims=DIMS, device=DEVICE)

# Optional: compute real_m and real_s only once, they will not change during training
real_m, real_s = pfw.get_stats(real_images)

...

# -------------------------------------
# -----  Computing the FID Score  -----
# -------------------------------------

val_fid = pfw.fid(fake_images, real_m=real_m, real_s=real_s) # (1)

# OR

val_fid = pfw.fid(fake_images, real_images=new_real_images) # (2)

All _images variables in the example above are torch.Tensor instances with shape N x C x H x W. They will be sent to the appropriate device depending on what you ask for (see Config).

To compute the FID score between your fake images and some real dataset, you can either re-use pre-computed stats real_m, real_s at each validation stage (1), or provide another dataset for which the stats will be computed (in addition to your fake images' which are computed in both scenarios) (2). Score is computed in pfw.fid_score.calculate_frechet_distance(...), following pytorch-fid's implementation.

Please refer to pytorch-fid for any documentation on the InceptionV3 implementation or FID calculations.

Config

pfw.get_stats(...) and pfw.fid(...) need to know what block of the InceptionV3 model to use (dims), on what device to compute inference (device) and with what batch size (batch_size).

Default values are in pfw.params: batch_size = 50, dims = 2048 and device = "cpu". If you want to override those, you have two options:

1/ override any of these parameters in the function calls. For instance:

pfw.fid(fake_images, new_real_data, device="cuda:0")

2/ override the params globally with pfw.set_config and set them for all future calls without passing parameters again. For instance:

pfw.set_config(batch_size=100, dims=768, device="cuda:0")
...
pfw.fid(fake_images, new_real_data)
