# BYOL - Bootstrap Your Own Latent: A New Approach to Self-Supervised Learning
PyTorch implementation of "Bootstrap Your Own Latent: A New Approach to Self-Supervised Learning" by J.B. Grill et al.

[Link to paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.07733)

This repository includes a practical implementation of BYOL with:
- **Distributed Data Parallel training**
- Benchmarks on vision datasets (CIFAR-10 / STL-10)
- Support for PyTorch **<= 1.5.0**

Open BYOL in Google Colab Notebook

## Results
These are the top-1 accuracy of linear classifiers trained on the (frozen) representations learned by BYOL:

| Method | Batch size | Image size | ResNet | Projection output dim. | Pre-training epochs | Optimizer | STL-10 | CIFAR-10
| ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| BYOL + linear eval. | 192 | 224x224 | ResNet18 | 256 | 100 | Adam | _ | **0.832** |
| Logistic Regression | - | - | - | - | - | - | 0.358 | 0.389 |

## Installation
```
git clone https://github.com/spijkervet/byol --recurse-submodules -j8
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 main.py
```

## Usage
### Using a pre-trained model
The following commands will train a logistic regression model on a pre-trained ResNet18, yielding a top-1 accuracy of 83.2% on CIFAR-10.
```
curl https://github.com/Spijkervet/BYOL/releases/download/1.0/resnet18-CIFAR10-final.pt -L -O
rm features.p
python3 logistic_regression.py --model_path resnet18-CIFAR10-final.pt
```

### Pre-training
To run pre-training using BYOL with the default arguments (1 node, 1 GPU), use:
```
python3 main.py
```

Which is equivalent to:
```
python3 main.py --nodes 1 --gpus 1
```
The pre-trained models are saved every *n* epochs in \*.pt files, the final model being `model-final.pt`

### Finetuning
Finetuning a model ('linear evaluation') on top of the pre-trained, frozen ResNet model can be done using:
```
python3 logistic_regression.py --model_path=./model_final.pt
```

With `model_final.pt` being file containing the pre-trained network from the pre-training stage.

## Multi-GPU / Multi-node training
Use `python3 main.py --gpus 2` to train e.g. on 2 GPU's, and `python3 main.py --gpus 2 --nodes 2` to train with 2 GPU's using 2 nodes.
See https://yangkky.github.io/2019/07/08/distributed-pytorch-tutorial.html for an excellent explanation.
