Prerequisites

Python (3.6)
PyTorch 1.0

To use the ImageNet dataset, download the dataset and move validation images to labeled subfolders (e.g., using https://raw.githubusercontent.com/soumith/imagenetloader.torch/master/valprep.sh)

Training and testing

example

To run the training with energy constraint on AlexNet,

python energy_proj_train.py --net alexnet --dataset imagenet --datadir [imagenet-folder with train and val folders] --batch_size 128 --lr 1e-3 --momentum 0.9 --l2wd 1e-4 --proj_int 10 --logdir ./log/path-of-log --num_workers 8 --exp_bdecay --epochs 30 --distill 0.5 --nodp --budget 0.2
