Model Weights

For the following COCO-supervision results, we use 16 labeled images + 16 unlabeled images on 8 GPUs (single node).

Faster-RCNN:

Model Supervision Batch size AP Model Weights
R50-FPN 1% 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 20.16 link
R50-FPN 2% 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 24.16 link
R50-FPN 5% 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 27.84 link
R50-FPN 10% 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 31.39 link

For the following VOC results, we use 8 labeled images + 8 unlabeled images on 4 GPUs (single node).

VOC:

Model Labeled set Unlabeled set Batch size AP50 AP Model Weights
R50-FPN VOC07 VOC12 8 labeled + 8 unlabeled 80.51 54.48 link
R50-FPN VOC07 VOC12+COCO20cls 8 labeled + 8 unlabeled 81.71 55.79 link

FAQ

  1. Q: Using the lower batch size and fewer GPUs cannot achieve the results presented in the paper?
  • A: We train the model with 32 labeled images + 32 unlabeled images per batch for the results presented in the paper, and using the lower batch size leads to lower accuracy. For example, in the 1% COCO-supervision setting, the model trained with 16 labeled images + 16 unlabeled images achieves 20.16 AP as shown in the following table.
Experiment GPUs Batch size per node Batch size AP
8 GPUs/node; 4 nodes 8 labeled + 8 unlabeled 32 labeled + 32 unlabeled 20.75
8 GPUs/node; 1 node 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 16 labeled + 16 unlabeled 20.16
  1. Q: How to use customized dataset other than COCO and VOC?
  1. Q: What is COCO_supervision.txt? Could I remove it if I need to use my own dataset?
  • A: COCO_supervision.txt stores data split of the results we presented in the paper. We did this to make sure the results are reproducible. Also, we found out that the variance across runs is less than 1 mAP, so using other random seed should lead to similar results.
  1. Why VOC results in github repo look better than VOC results presented in the paper?
  • A: We use COCOevaluator to evalute VOC07-test on paper, while we notice that VOCevaluator has different way to compute AP and results in higher results.
