Deep-Mutual-Learning

TensorFlow implementation of Deep Mutual Learning accepted by CVPR 2018.

Introduction

Deep mutual learning provides a simple but effective way to improve the generalisation ability of a network by training collaboratively with a cohort of other networks.

DML

Requirements

  1. TensorFlow 1.3.1
  2. CUDA 8.0 and cuDNN 6.0
  3. Matlab

Usage

Data Preparation

  1. Please download the Market-1501 Dataset

  2. Convert the image data into TFRecords

    sh scripts/format_and_convert_market.sh

Training

  1. Train MobileNets with DML

    sh scripts/train_dml_mobilenet_on_market.sh

  2. Train MobileNet independently

    sh scripts/train_ind_mobilenet_on_market.sh

Testing

  1. Extract features of the test image

    sh scripts/evaludate_dml_mobilenet_on_market.sh

  2. Evaluate the performance with matlab code
