Deep-Learning-Mini-Project

Goal

Design a modified Residual Network (ResNet) architecture with the highest test accuracy on the CIFAR- 10 image classification dataset, under the constraint that the model has no more than 5 million parameters.

Our Proposed Architecture

Repository Structure

• models/
  • .py files - contains all the model architecture we experimented on using grid search, hyperparameters were tuned, and configurations were employed.
• besthyperparams.json - Hyperparameters for the best model.
• gridsearch.py - python script to train all the models present in ./models, with all combinations of specified hyperparameters. It trains 45 models in total. 5 resnet variations with 9 combinations of hyperparameters each.
• main_job.sbatch - slurm job for running gridsearch.py on clsuters.
• main_output - output after running the slurm job.
• resnet10.ipynb - contains code for the most accurate model.
• resnet_model_93.54.ckpt - checkpoint of the most accurate model.
• arc.png - model architecture

How to run

• Run the cells of the file resnet10.ipynb
