Requirements

• PyTorch (version >= 0.4.1)
• scikit-learn Check requirements.txt for detailed instructions.

Data Preparation

Follow OLTR for data preparation.

Getting Started (Training & Testing)

• Step 1: Train Expert models, or use the pre-trained model in ./logs/ImageNet_LT/

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python main.py --config=./config/many_shot.py
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python main.py --config=./config/median_shot.py
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python main.py --config=./config/low_shot.py

• Step 2: Train a single model using the LFME

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python main_LFME.py --config=./config/ImageNet_LT/LFME.py

• Evaluate LFME:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python main_LFME.py --config=./config/ImageNet_LT/LFME.py --test
