MDCA Calibration

This is the official PyTorch implementation for the paper: "A Stitch in Time Saves Nine: A Train-Time Regularizing Loss for Improved Neural Network Calibration".

Abstract

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) make overconfident mistakes which can prove to be probematic in deployment in safety critical applications. Calibration is aimed to enhance trust in DNNs. The goal of our proposed Multi-Class Difference in Confidence and Accuracy (MDCA) loss is to align the probability estimates in accordance with accuracy thereby enhancing the trust in DNN decisions. MDCA can be used in case of image classification, image segmentation, and natural language classification tasks.

Requirements

  • Python 3.8
  • PyTorch 1.8

Directly install using pip

 pip install -r requirements.txt

Training scripts:

Refer to the scripts folder to train for every model and dataset. Overall the command to train looks like below where each argument can be changed accordingly on how to train. Also refer to dataset/__init__.py and models/__init__.py for correct arguments to train with. Argument parser can be found in utils/argparser.py.

Train with cross-entropy:

python train.py --dataset cifar10 --model resnet56 --schedule-steps 80 120 --epochs 160 --loss cross_entropy

Train with FL+MDCA: Also mention the gamma (for Focal Loss) and beta (Weight assigned to MDCA) to train FL+MDCA with

python train.py --dataset cifar10 --model resnet56 --schedule-steps 80 120 --epochs 160 --loss FL+MDCA --gamma 1.0 --beta 1.0

Train with NLL+MDCA:

python train.py --dataset cifar10 --model resnet56 --schedule-steps 80 120 --epochs 160 --loss NLL+MDCA --beta 1.0

Post Hoc Calibration:

To do post-hoc calibration, we can use the following command.

lr and patience value is used for Dirichlet calibration. To change range of grid-search in dirichlet calibration, refer to posthoc_calibrate.py.

python posthoc_calibrate.py --dataset cifar10 --model resnet56 --lr 0.001 --patience 5 --checkpoint path/to/your/trained/model

Other Experiments (Dataset Drift, Dataset Imbalance):

experiments folder contains our experiments on PACS, Rotated MNIST and Imbalanced CIFAR10. Please refer to the scripts provided to run them.
