DINO

DINO is an object-detection model included in the TAO. It supports the following tasks:

  • convert

  • train

  • evaluate

  • inference

  • export

  • distill

These tasks can be invoked from the TAO Launcher using the following convention on the command-line:

Copy
Copied!
            

tao model dino <sub_task> <args_per_subtask>

where, args_per_subtask are the command-line arguments required for a given subtask. Each subtask is explained in detail in the following sections.

DINO expects directories of images for training or validation and annotated JSON files in COCO format.

Note

The category_id from your COCO JSON file should start from 1 because 0 is set as a background class. In addition, dataset.num_classes should be set to max class_id + 1. For instance, even though there are only 80 classes used in COCO, the largest class_id is 90, so dataset.num_classes should be set to 91.

Sharding the Data (Optional)

Note

Sharding is not necessary if the annotation is already in JSON format and your dataset is smaller than the COCO dataset. This subtask also assumes that your dataset is in KITTI format.

For a large dataset, you can optionally use convert to shard the dataset into smaller chunks to reduce the memory burden. In this process, KITTI-based annotations are converted into smaller sharded JSON files, similar to other object detection networks. Here is an example spec file for converting KITTI-based folders into multiple sharded JSON files.

The details of each parameter are summarized in the table below:

The category mapping should contain mapping of your dataset and be in reverse alphabetical order. The default mapping is shown below:

the data is serialized through pickle and torch.Tensor` that allows the data to be shared

tao model dino train [-h] -e <experiment_spec> [results_dir=<global_results_dir>] [model.<model_option>=<model_option_value>] [dataset.<dataset_option>=<dataset_option_value>] [train.<train_option>=<train_option_value>] [train.gpu_ids=<gpu indices>] [train.num_gpus=<number of gpus>]

Required Arguments

The only required argument is the path to the experiment spec:

  • -e, --experiment_spec: The experiment specification file to set up the training experiment

Optional Arguments

You can set optional arguments to override the option values in the experiment spec file.

Note

For training, evaluation, and inference, we expose 2 variables for each respective task: num_gpus and gpu_ids, which default to 1 and [0], respectively. If both are passed, but inconsistent, for example num_gpus = 1, gpu_ids = [0, 1], then they are modified to follow the setting with more GPUs, for example num_gpus = 1 -> num_gpus = 2.

Checkpointing and Resuming Training

At every train.checkpoint_interval, a PyTorch Lightning checkpoint is saved. It is called model_epoch_<epoch_num>.pth. These are saved in train.results_dir, like so:

Copy
Copied!
            

$ ls /results/train 'model_epoch_000.pth' 'model_epoch_001.pth' 'model_epoch_002.pth' 'model_epoch_003.pth' 'model_epoch_004.pth'

The latest checkpoint is also saved as dino_model_latest.pth. Training automatically resumes from dino_model_latest.pth, if it exists in train.results_dir. This is superseded by train.resume_training_checkpoint_path, if it is provided.

The major implication of this logic is that, if you wish to trigger fresh training from scratch, either:

  • Specify a new, empty results directory (Recommended)

  • Remove the latest checkpoint from the results directory

Optimizing Resource for Training DINO

Training DINO requires strong GPUs (for example, V100/A100) with at least 15GB of VRAM and a lot of CPU memory to be trained on a standard dataset like COCO. This section outlines some of the strategies you can use to launch training with only limited resources.

Optimize GPU Memory

There are various ways to optimize GPU memory usage. One trick is to reduce dataset.batch_size. However, this can cause your training to take longer than usual. We recommend setting the following configurations to optimize GPU consumption:

  • Set train.precision to fp16 to enable automatic mixed precision training. This can reduce your GPU memory usage by 50%.

  • Set train.activation_checkpoint to True to enable activation checkpointing. By recomputing the activations instead of caching them into memory, the memory usage can be improved.

  • Set train.distributed_strategy to fsdp to enable Fully Sharded Data Parallel training. This shares gradient calculation across different processes to help reduce GPU memory.

  • Try using more lightweight backbones like fan_tiny or freeze the backbone through setting model.train_backbone to False.

  • Try changing the augmentation resolution in dataset.augmentation depending on your dataset.

Optimize CPU Memory

To speed up data loading, it is a common practice to set a high number of workers to spawn multiple processes. However, this can cause your CPU memory to become Out of Memory, if the size of your annotation file is very large. We recommend setting the following configurations to optimize CPU consumption:

  • Set dataset.dataset_type to serialized so that the COCO-based annotation data can be shared across different subprocesses.

  • Set dataset.augmentation.fixed_padding to True so that images are padded before the batch formulation. Due to random resize and random crop augmentation during training, the resulting image resolution after transform can vary across images. Such variable image resolutions can cause memory leak and the CPU memory to slowly stacks up until it becomes Out of Memory in the middle of training. This is the limitation of PyTorch so we advise setting fixed_padding to True to help stablize the CPU memory usage.

To distill a DINO model, use this command:

Copy

tao model dino distill [-h] -e <experiment_spec> [-r <results_dir>] [-k <key>]

Required Arguments

Optional Arguments

  • -r, --results_dir: The path to the folder where the experiment outputs are written. If this argument is not specified, the results_dir from the spec file is used.

  • -k, --key: A user-specific encoding key to save or load a .tlt model. If this argument is not specified, the model checkpoint is not encrypted.

  • --gpus: The number of GPUs used to run training.

  • --num_nodes: The number of nodes used to run training. If this value is larger than 1, distributed multi-node training is enabled.

  • -h, --help: Show this help message and exit.
