LightCollections⚡️: modular-pytorch-lightning-collections

[WIP] modular-pytorch-lightning, WARNING: The repository is currently under development, and is unstable.

What is modular-pytorch-Lightning-Collections⚡(LightCollections⚡️) for?

Ever wanted to train tresnetm50 models and apply TTA(test-time augmentation) or SWA(stocahstic weight averaging) to enhance performance? Apply sharpness-aware minimization to semantic segmentation models and measure the difference in calibration? LightCollections is a framework that utilize and connects existing libraries so experiments can be run effortlessly.
Although many popular repositories provide great implementations of algorithms, they are often fragmented and tedious to use in cooperation. LightCollection wraps many existing repositories into components of pytorch-lightning. We aim to provide training procedures of various subtasks in Computer Vision with a collection of LightningModule and utilities for easily using model architecture, metrics, dataset, and training algorithms.
The components can be used through our system or simply imported from outside to be used in your pytorch or pytorch-lightning project. Currently, the following frameworks are integrated into LightCollections:
- torchvision.models for models, torchvision.transforms for transforms, optimizers and learning rate schedules from pytorch.
- Network architecture and weights from timm.
- Object detection frameworks and techniques from mmdetection
- Keypoint detection(pose estimation) frameworks and techniques from mmpose
- inagenet21k pretrained weights and feature to load model weights from url / .pth file.
- TTAch for test-time augmentation.
- Metrics implemented in torchmetrics.
- WIP & future TODO:
  - Data augmentation from albumentations
  - Semantic segmentation models and weights from mmsegmentation

A number of algorithms and research papers are also adopted into our framework. Please refer to the examples below for more information.

    configs/utils/wandb.yaml \
    configs/utils/train.yaml

`Experiment` and `catalog`

LightCollections can also be used as a library for extending your pytorch lightning code. train.py simply conveys the config file to the Experiment class defined in main.py to build components such as dataset, dataloaders, models, and callbacks, which in tern uses components defined in catatlog.

    ...
    experiment = Experiment(cfg)
    experiment.initialize_environment(cfg=cfg)
    datasets = experiment.setup_dataset(
        dataset_cfg=cfg["dataset"],
        transform_cfg=cfg["transform"],
    )
    dataloaders = experiment.setup_dataloader(
        datasets=datasets,
        dataloader_cfg=cfg["dataloader"],
    )
    train_dataloader, val_dataloader = dataloaders["trn"], dataloaders["val"]
    model = experiment.setup_model(model_cfg=cfg["model"], training_cfg=cfg["training"])
    logger_and_callbacks = experiment.setup_callbacks(cfg=cfg)
    ...

You don't neccessarily need to create every component using the Experiment class. For example, if you wish to use a custom dataset instead, you can skip experiment.setup_dataset and feed your custom dataset to experiment.setup_dataloader. The Experiment class simply manages constant global variables such as label map, normalization mean and standard deviation, and manages a common log directory to conveniently create the components.

In an example implemented in tools/hyperparameter_sweep.py, I was able to implement hyperparameter sweeping using the Experiment class.

How does config files work?

Training involves many configs. LightCollections implements a cascading config system where we use multiple layers of config files to define differnt parts of the experiment. For example, in the CIFAR10 example above, we combine 6 config files.

configs/vision/classification/resnet-cifar10.yaml \
configs/vision/models/resnet/resnet18-custom.yaml \
configs/data/cifar10-kuangliu.yaml \
configs/device/gpu.yaml \
configs/utils/wandb.yaml \
configs/utils/train.yaml

Each layer defines something different, such as the dataset, network architecture, or training procedure. If we wanted to use a ResNet50 model instead, we may replace

configs/vision/models/resnet/resnet18-custom.yaml
-> configs/vision/models/resnet/resnet50-custom.yaml

these cascading config files are baked at the start of train.py. Configs in front have higher priority. These baked config files are logged under configs/logs/{experiment_name}.(yaml/pkl/json) for logging and reproduction purpose.

Components from `catalog`

If not implemented yet, you may take an instance of main.py: Experiment and override any part of it.
Training procedure (LightningModule): List of available training procedures are listed in lightning/trainers.py
Model architectures:
- Backbone models implemented in torchvision.models can be used.
- Backbone models implemented in timm can be used.
- Although we highly recommend using timm, as they provide a large variaty of computer vision models and their models are throughly evaluated, custom implementations of some architectures are listed in catalog/models/__init__.py.
Dataset
- Dataset: currently only torchvision datasets are supported by Experiment, however torchvision.datasets.ImageFolder can be used to load from custom dataset. In addition, you may just use a custom dataset and combine it with the transforms, model and training feature of the repo.
- Transformations(data augmentation): Transforms must be listed in one in [data/transforms/vision/__init__.py]
Other features
- Optimizers
- Metrics / loss

Tip for reproducing experiments

The results of experiments such as model checkpoints, logs, and the config file used to run the experiment is logged under awesome-modular-pytorch-lightning/results/{exp_name}. In particular, the results/{exp_name}/configs/cfg.yaml file which contains the config file can be useful when reproducing experiments or rechecking hyperparameters.

List of algorithms implemented

Network architecture

For computer vision models, we recommend borrowing architecture from timm as they provide robust implementations and pretrained weights for a wide variety of architectures. We remove the classification head from the original models.

timm

timm provides a wide variety of architectures for computer vision. timm.list_models() returns a complete list of available models in timm. Models can be created with timm.create_model().

An example of creating a resnet50 model using timm:

model = timm.create_model("resnet50", pretrained=True)

To use timm models,

set model.backbone.name to TimmNetwork.
set model.backbone.args.name to the model name.
set additional arguments in model.backbone.cfg.
Refer to: configs/vision/models/resnet/resnet50-timm.yaml

model:
  backbone:
    name: "TimmNetwork"
    args:
      name: "resnet50"
      args:
        pretrained: True
    out_features: 2048

torchvision.models

torchvision.models also provide a number of architectures for computer vision. The list of models can be found here.

An example of creating a resnet50 model using torchvision:

model = torchvision.models.resnet50()

To use timm models,

set model.backbone.name to TorchvisionNetwork.
set model.backbone.args.name to the model name.
set additional arguments in models.backbone.args.
set model.backbone.drop_after to only use feature extractor.
Refer to: configs/vision/models/resnet/resnet50-torchvision.yaml

model:
  backbone:
    name: "TorchvisionNetwork"
    args:
      name: "resnet50"
      args:
        pretrained: False
      drop_after: "avgpool"
    out_features: 2048

Loss functions

Sharpness-aware minimization(SAM)

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.01412
Note: Sharpness aware minimization aims at finding flat minimas. It is demonstrated to improve training speed, generalization, robustness to label noise. However, two backpropagation is needed at every opimization step which doubles the training time.

Note: Used to preventing gradient explosion and stabilize the training by clipping large gradients. Recently, it is demonstrated to have a number of benefits.
Refer to: configs/algorithms/optimizer/gradient_clipping.yaml and configs/algorithms/optimizer/gradient_clipping_maulat_optimization.yaml

trainer:
  gradient_clip_val: 1.0

Stocahstic Weight Averaging(SWA)

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.05407
Note: Average multiple checkpoints during training for better performance. An awesome overview of the algorithm is provided by pytorch. Luckily, pytorch-lightning provides an easy-to-use callback that implements SWA. To train a SWA model from an existing checkpoint, you may set swa_epoch_start: 0.0.
Refer to: configs/algorithms/swa.yaml

callbacks:
  StochasticWeightAveraging:
    name: "StochasticWeightAveraging"
    file: "lightning"
    args:
      swa_lrs: 0.02 # typicall x0.2 ~ x0.5 of initial lr
      swa_epoch_start: 0.75
      annealing_epochs: 5 # smooth the connection between lr schedule and SWA.
      annealing_strategy: "cos"
      avg_fn: null

Pre-training

Fine-tuning from a pretrained feature extractor backbone

timm or torchvision models have an argument called pretrained for loading a pretrained feature extractor(typically ImageNet trained).
To load from custom checkpoints, you can specify a url or path to the state dict in model.backbone.weights. For example, configs/vision/models/imagenet21k/imagenet21k_resnet50.yaml loads ImageNet21K checkpoints from a url proposed in the paper: ImageNet-21K Pretraining for the Masses. Path to state dict can be provided in model.backbone.weights.state_dict_path instead of the url. This is implemented in lightning/base.py:L23

model:
  backbone:
    name: "TimmNetwork"
    args:
      name: "resnet50"
      args:
        pretrained: False
    out_features: 2048

    weights:
      is_ckpt: True
      url: "https://miil-public-eu.oss-eu-central-1.aliyuncs.com/model-zoo/ImageNet_21K_P/models/resnet50_miil_21k.pth"
      # alternatively, `state_dict_path: {PATH TO STATE DICT}`

Loading and resuming from checkpoint

To resume from a checkpoint, provide the path to state dict in model.state_dict_path. Checkpoints generated using ModelCheckpoint callback contain state dict inside the state_dict key while saving using torch.save(model.state_dict()) directly saves the state dict. The is_ckpt argument should be true if the state dict is generated through the ModelCheckpoint callback.

model:
  is_ckpt: True # True / False according to the type of the state dict.
  state_dict_path: {PATH TO STATE DICT}

Learning rate schedule

1-cycle learning rate schedule

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.07120
Note: Linearly increases learning rate from 0 to maximum for the first half of training then linearly decreases to 0. Commonly used learning rate schedule.
Refer to: configs/algorithms/lr-schedule/1cycle.yaml and torch.optim.lr_scheduler.OneCycleLR

training:
  lr_scheduler:
    name: "1cycle"
    args:
      # Original version updates per-batch but we modify to update pre-epoch.
      pct_start: 0.3
      max_lr: "{training.lr}"
      anneal_strategy: "linear"
      total_steps: "{training.epochs}"
    cfg:
      interval: "epoch"

Cosine learning rate decay

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03983
Note: Decays the learning from the initial value to 0 via a cosine function. Commonly used learning rate schedule.
