We present a regularized self-labeling approach to improve the generalization and robustness properties of fine-tuning.

Overview

This repository provides the implementation for the paper "Improved Regularization and Robustness for Fine-tuning in Neural Networks", which will be presented as a poster paper in NeurIPS'21.

In this work, we propose a regularized self-labeling approach that combines regularization and self-training methods for improving the generalization and robustness properties of fine-tuning. Our approach includes two components:

First, we encode layer-wise regularization to penalize the model weights at different layers of the neural net.
Second, we add self-labeling that relabels data points based on current neural net's belief and reweights data points whose confidence is low.

Requirements

To install requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Preparation

We use seven image datasets in our paper. We list the link for downloading these datasets and describe how to prepare data to run our code below.

Aircrafts: download and extract into ./data/aircrafts
- remove the class 257.clutter out of the data directory
CUB-200-2011: download and extract into ./data/CUB_200_2011/
Caltech-256: download and extract into ./data/caltech256/
Stanford-Cars: download and extract into ./data/StanfordCars/
Stanford-Dogs: download and extract into ./data/StanfordDogs/
Flowers: download and extract into ./data/flowers/
MIT-Indoor: download and extract into ./data/Indoor/

Our code automatically handles the split of the datasets.

Usage

Our algorithm (RegSL) interpolates between layer-wise regularization and self-labeling. Run the following commands for conducting experiments in this paper.
