PyTorch Models

• Load using Torch Hub

import torch
# get list of models
torch.hub.list('zhanghang1989/ResNeSt', force_reload=False)

# load pretrained models, using ResNeSt-50 as an example
net = torch.hub.load('zhanghang1989/ResNeSt', 'resnest50', pretrained=True)

• Load using python package

# using ResNeSt-50 as an example
from resnest.torch import resnest50
net = resnest50(pretrained=True)

Gluon Models

• Load pretrained model:

# using ResNeSt-50 as an example
from resnest.gluon import resnest50
net = resnest50(pretrained=True)

Verify Models:

Note: the inference speed reported in the paper are tested using Gluon implementation with RecordIO data.

Prepare ImageNet dataset:

Here we use raw image data format for simplicity, please follow GluonCV tutorial if you would like to use RecordIO format.

cd scripts/dataset/
# assuming you have downloaded the dataset in the current folder
python prepare_imagenet.py --download-dir ./

Torch Model

# use resnest50 as the example
cd scripts/torch/
python verify.py --model resnest50 --crop-size 224

Gluon Model

# use resnest50 as the example
cd scripts/gluon/
python verify.py --model resnest50 --crop-size 224

How to Train

Coming Soon.
