MobileNetV2 Description

MobileNetV2 is tuned to mobile phone CPUs through a combination of hardware- aware network architecture search (NAS) complemented by the NetAdapt algorithm and then subsequently improved through novel architecture advances.Nov 20, 2019.

Dataset

Dataset used: imagenet

• Dataset size: ~125G, 1.2W colorful images in 1000 classes
  • Train: 120G, 1.2W images
  • Test: 5G, 50000 images
• Data format: RGB images.
  • Note: Data will be processed in src/dataset.py

Features

Mixed Precision(Ascend)

The mixed precision training method accelerates the deep learning neural network training process by using both the single-precision and half-precision data formats, and maintains the network precision achieved by the single-precision training at the same time. Mixed precision training can accelerate the computation process, reduce memory usage, and enable a larger model or batch size to be trained on specific hardware. For FP16 operators, if the input data type is FP32, the backend of MindSpore will automatically handle it with reduced precision. Users could check the reduced-precision operators by enabling INFO log and then searching ‘reduce precision’.

Environment Requirements

Training process

Usage

You can start training using python or shell scripts. The usage of shell scripts as follows:

• Ascend: sh run_train.sh Ascend [DEVICE_NUM] [VISIABLE_DEVICES(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7)] [RANK_TABLE_FILE] [DATASET_PATH] [CKPT_PATH] [FREEZE_LAYER] [FILTER_HEAD]
• GPU: sh run_trian.sh GPU [DEVICE_NUM] [VISIABLE_DEVICES(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7)] [DATASET_PATH] [CKPT_PATH] [FREEZE_LAYER] [FILTER_HEAD]
• CPU: sh run_trian.sh CPU [DATASET_PATH] [CKPT_PATH] [FREEZE_LAYER] [FILTER_HEAD]

CKPT_PATH FREEZE_LAYER and FILTER_HEAD are optional, when set CKPT_PATH, FREEZE_LAYER must be set. FREEZE_LAYER should be in ["none", "backbone"], and if you set FREEZE_LAYER="backbone", the parameter in backbone will be freezed when training and the parameter in head will not be load from checkpoint. if FILTER_HEAD=True, the parameter in head will not be load from checkpoint.

RANK_TABLE_FILE is HCCL configuration file when running on Ascend. The common restrictions on using the distributed service are as follows. For details, see the HCCL documentation.

• In a single-node system, a cluster of 1, 2, 4, or 8 devices is supported. In a multi-node system, a cluster of 8 x N devices is supported.
• Each host has four devices numbered 0 to 3 and four devices numbered 4 to 7 deployed on two different networks. During training of 2 or 4 devices, the devices must be connected and clusters cannot be created across networks.
