I want to compute the validation loss for faster rcnn from the pytorch tutorial, however, at no point in pytorch faster rcnn are losses returned when model.eval() is set.
Nevertheless, I was told you can use the forward function from GeneralizedRCNN to generate the losses in evaluation mode like this:
def eval_forward(model, images, targets):
# type: (List[Tensor], Optional[List[Dict[str, Tensor]]]) -> Tuple[Dict[str, Tensor], List[Dict[str, Tensor]]]
"""
Args:
images (list[Tensor]): images to be processed
targets (list[Dict[str, Tensor]]): ground-truth boxes present in the image (optional)
Returns:
result (list[BoxList] or dict[Tensor]): the output from the model.
It returns list[BoxList] contains additional fields
like `scores`, `labels` and `mask` (for Mask R-CNN models).
"""
model.eval()
original_image_sizes: List[Tuple[int, int]] = []
for img in images:
val = img.shape[-2:]
assert len(val) == 2
original_image_sizes.append((val[0], val[1]))
images, targets = model.transform(images, targets)
# Check for degenerate boxes
# TODO: Move this to a function
if targets is not None:
for target_idx, target in enumerate(targets):
boxes = target["boxes"]
degenerate_boxes = boxes[:, 2:] <= boxes[:, :2]
if degenerate_boxes.any():
# print the first degenerate box
bb_idx = torch.where(degenerate_boxes.any(dim=1))[0][0]
degen_bb: List[float] = boxes[bb_idx].tolist()
raise ValueError(
"All bounding boxes should have positive height and width."
f" Found invalid box {degen_bb} for target at index {target_idx}."
)
features = model.backbone(images.tensors)
if isinstance(features, torch.Tensor):
features = OrderedDict([("0", features)])
model.rpn.training=True
#model.roi_heads.training=True
#####proposals, proposal_losses = model.rpn(images, features, targets)
features_rpn = list(features.values())

)

proposals, matched_idxs, labels, regression_targets = model.roi_heads.select_training_samples(proposals, targets)
box_features = model.roi_heads.box_roi_pool(features, proposals, image_shapes)

detector_losses = {"loss_classifier": loss_classifier, "loss_box_reg": loss_box_reg}
boxes, scores, labels = model.roi_heads.postprocess_detections(class_logits, box_regression, proposals, image_shapes)

model.rpn.training=False
model.roi_heads.training=False
losses = {}
losses.update(detector_losses)
losses.update(proposal_losses)
return losses, detections
If I was to place this function in this loop would it be ok and not interfere with training?:
def evaluate_loss(model, data_loader, device):
val_loss = 0
with torch.no_grad():
for images, targets in data_loader:
images = list(image.to(device) for image in images)
targets = [{k: v.to(device) for k, v in t.items()} for t in targets]
losses_dict, detections = eval_forward(model, images, targets)
losses = sum(loss for loss in losses_dict.values())
val_loss += losses
validation_loss = val_loss/ len(data_loader)
return validation_loss
Then train and validate:
for epoch in range(num_epochs):
train_one_epoch(model, optimizer, train_data_loader, device, epoch, print_freq=10)
# update the learning rate
lr_scheduler.step()
validation_loss = evaluate_loss(model, valid_data_loader, device=device)
# evaluate on the test dataset
evaluate(model, valid_data_loader, device=device)
I think the main thing is that model.eval() and with torch.no_grad() have been switched on, but I’m hoping that I haven’t missed anything obvious that interferes with training.
