Encoding¶

class encoding.nn.Encoding(D, K)[source]¶

Encoding Layer: a learnable residual encoder.

Encoding Layer accpets 3D or 4D inputs. It considers an input featuremaps with the shape of \(C\times H\times W\) as a set of C-dimentional input features \(X=\{x_1, ...x_N\}\), where N is total number of features given by \(H\times W\), which learns an inherent codebook \(D=\{d_1,...d_K\}\) and a set of smoothing factor of visual centers \(S=\{s_1,...s_K\}\). Encoding Layer outputs the residuals with soft-assignment weights \(e_k=\sum_{i=1}^Ne_{ik}\), where

\[e_{ik} = \frac{exp(-s_k\|r_{ik}\|^2)}{\sum_{j=1}^K exp(-s_j\|r_{ij}\|^2)} r_{ik}\]

and the residuals are given by \(r_{ik} = x_i - d_k\). The output encoders are \(E=\{e_1,...e_K\}\).

Parameters

D – dimention of the features or feature channels
K – number of codeswords

Shape:

Input: \(X\in\mathcal{R}^{B\times N\times D}\) or \(\mathcal{R}^{B\times D\times H\times W}\) (where \(B\) is batch, \(N\) is total number of features or \(H\times W\).)
Output: \(E\in\mathcal{R}^{B\times K\times D}\)

Variables

codewords (Tensor) – the learnable codewords of shape (\(K\times D\))
scale (Tensor) – the learnable scale factor of visual centers

Examples

>>> import encoding
>>> import torch
>>> import torch.nn.functional as F
>>> from torch.autograd import Variable
>>> B,C,H,W,K = 2,3,4,5,6
>>> X = Variable(torch.cuda.DoubleTensor(B,C,H,W).uniform_(-0.5,0.5), requires_grad=True)
>>> layer = encoding.Encoding(C,K).double().cuda()
>>> E = layer(X)

forward(X)[source]¶

Defines the computation performed at every call.

Should be overridden by all subclasses.

Note

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the registered hooks while the latter silently ignores them.

DistSyncBatchNorm¶

class encoding.nn.DistSyncBatchNorm(num_features, eps=1e-05, momentum=0.1, process_group=None)[source]¶

Cross-GPU Synchronized Batch normalization (SyncBN)

Standard BN 1 implementation only normalize the data within each device (GPU). SyncBN normalizes the input within the whole mini-batch. We follow the sync-onece implmentation described in the paper 2 . Please see the design idea in the notes.

\[y = \frac{x - mean[x]}{ \sqrt{Var[x] + \epsilon}} * gamma + beta\]

The mean and standard-deviation are calculated per-channel over the mini-batches and gamma and beta are learnable parameter vectors of size C (where C is the input size).

During training, this layer keeps a running estimate of its computed mean and variance. The running sum is kept with a default momentum of 0.1.

During evaluation, this running mean/variance is used for normalization.

Because the BatchNorm is done over the C dimension, computing statistics on (N, H, W) slices, it’s common terminology to call this Spatial BatchNorm

Parameters

num_features – num_features from an expected input of size batch_size x num_features x height x width
eps – a value added to the denominator for numerical stability. Default: 1e-5
momentum – the value used for the running_mean and running_var computation. Default: 0.1
sync – a boolean value that when set to True, synchronize across different gpus. Default: True
activation – str Name of the activation functions, one of: leaky_relu or none.
slope – float Negative slope for the leaky_relu activation.

Shape:

Input: \((N, C, H, W)\)
Output: \((N, C, H, W)\) (same shape as input)
