ECCV2022-SdAE

The implementation of "SdAE: Self-distillated Masked Autoencoder", ECCV2022.

Congifuration Environment

• Python 3.7
• Pytorch 1.7.0
• torchvision 0.8.1
• timm 0.3.2
• PyYAML

Pre-training

The detailed pre-training instruction is in PRETRAIN.md. Taking 300 epochs Vit-Base pretraining as example:

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node 8 main_pretrain.py \
        --batch_size 96 --epochs 300 --model mae_vit_base_patch16 \
        --model_teacher vit_base_patch16 --data_path {DATA_DIR} --warmup_epochs 60 \
        --mask_ratio 0.75 --blr 2.666e-4 --ema_op per_epoch --ema_frequent 1 \
        --momentum_teacher 0.96 --momentum_teacher_final 0.99 \
        --drop_path 0.25 --shrink_num 147 --ncrop_loss 3

Fine-tuning

The fine-tuning instruction is in FINETUNE.md. Taking Vit-Base fine-tuning as example:

python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node 8 main_finetune.py --finetune {WEIGHT_DIR} \
        --batch_size 128 --epochs 100 --model  vit_base_patch16 --dist_eval --data_path {DATA_DIR}
