A PyTorch implementation of Sharpness-Aware Minimization for Efficiently Improving Generalization ( Foret+2020) Paper, Official implementation .

Requirements

  • Python>=3.8
  • PyTorch>=1.7.1

To run the example, you further need

  • homura by pip install -U homura-core==2020.12.0
  • chika by pip install -U chika

Example

python cifar10.py [--optim.name {sam,sgd}] [--model {renst20, wrn28_2}] [--optim.rho 0.05]

Results: Test Accuracy (CIFAR-10)

Model SAM SGD
ResNet-20 93.5 93.2
WRN28-2 95.8 95.4
ResNeXT29 96.4 95.8

SAM needs double forward passes per each update, thus training with SAM is slower than training with SGD. In case of ResNet-20 training, 80 mins vs 50 mins on my environment. Additional options --use_amp --jit_model may slightly accelerates the training.

Usage

SAMSGD can be used as a drop-in replacement of PyTorch optimizers by using a closure as follows. Also, it is compatible with lr_scheduler and has state_dict and load_state_dict. Currently, this implementation does not support multiple parameter groups.

from sam import SAMSGD

optimizer = SAMSGD(model.parameters(), lr=1e-1, rho=0.05)

for input, target in dataset:
    def closure():
        optimizer.zero_grad()
        output = model(input)
        loss = loss_f(output, target)
        loss.backward()
        return loss


    loss = optimizer.step(closure)
