pytorch-ood 0.1.0

A Library for Out-of-Distribution Detection with PyTorch

---

Out-of-Distribution (OOD) Detection with Deep Neural Networks based on PyTorch.

The library provides:

• Out-of-Distribution Detection Methods

• Loss Functions

• Datasets

• Neural Network Architectures as well as pretrained weights

• Useful Utilities

and is designed such that it should be compatible with frameworks like, like pytorch-lightning and pytorch-segmentation-models. The library also covers some methods from closely related fields such as Open-Set Recognition, Novelty Detection, Confidence Estimation and Anomaly Detection.

📚 Documentation

The documentation is available here.

NOTE: An important convention adopted in pytorch-ood is that OOD detectors predict outlier scores that should be larger for outliers than for inliers. If you notice that the scores predicted by a detector do not match the formulas in the corresponding publication, it may be possible that we multiplied the scores with negative one to comply with this convention.

⏳ Quick Start

Load model pre-trained on CIFAR-10 with the Energy-Bounded Learning Loss [6], and predict on some dataset data_loader using Energy-based Out-of-Distribution Detection [6], calculating the common OOD detection metrics:

from pytorch_ood.model import WideResNet
from pytorch_ood.detector import EnergyBased
from pytorch_ood.utils import OODMetrics

# Create Neural Network
model = WideResNet(pretrained="er-cifar10-tune").eval().cuda()

# Create detector
detector = EnergyBased(model)

# Evaluate
metrics = OODMetrics()

for x, y in data_loader:
    metrics.update(detector(x.cuda()), y)

print(metrics.compute())

You can find more examples in the documentation.

🛠 ️️Installation

The package can be installed via PyPI:

pip install pytorch-ood

Dependencies

• torch

• torchvision

• scipy

• torchmetrics

Optional Dependencies

• libmr for the OpenMax Detector [1] . The library is currently broken and unlikely to be repaired. You will have to install cython and libmr afterwards manually.

• scikit for ViM

• pandas for the examples.

• segmentation-models-pytorch to run the examples for anomaly segmentation
