Data preparation

For all datasets available in datasets/base, the name for each dataset list is specified in the _get_dataset_list_name function. Here we provide a table summarizing all the name and the formats of the datasets.

dataset split list file name format
epic-kitchens-100 train EPIC_100_train.csv as downloaded
epic-kitchens-100 val EPIC_100_validation.csv as downloaded
epic-kitchens-100 test EPIC_100_test_timestamps.csv as downloaded
hmdb51 train/val hmdb51_train_list.txt/hmdb51_val_list.txt "video_path, supervised_label"
imagenet train/val imagenet_train.txt/imagenet_val.txt "image_path, supervised_label"
kinetics 400 train/val kinetics400_train_list.txt/kinetics400_val_list.txt "video_path, supervised_label"
ssv2 train something-something-v2-train-with-label.json json file with "label_idx" specifying the class and "id" specifying the name
ssv2 val something-something-v2-val-with-label.json json file with "label_idx" specifying the class and "id" specifying the name
ucf101 train/val ucf101_train_list.txt/ucf101_val_list.txt "video_path, supervised_label"

For epic-kitchens-features, the file name is specified in the respective configs in configs/projects/epic-kitchen-tal.

Running

The entry file for all the runs are runs/run.py.

Before running, some settings need to be configured in the config file. The codebase is designed to be experiment friendly for rapid development of new models and representation learning approaches, in that the config files are designed in a hierarchical way.

Take Tada2D as an example, each experiment (such as TAda2D_8x8 on kinetics 400: configs/projects/tada/k400/tada2d_8x8.yaml) inherits the config from the following hierarchy.

--- base config file [configs/pool/base.yaml]
    --- base run config [configs/pool/run/training/from_scratch_large.yaml]
    --- base backbone config [configs/pool/backbone/tada2d.yaml]
        --- base experiment config [configs/projects/tada/tada2d_k400.yaml]
            --- current experiment config [configs/projects/tada/k400/tada2d_8x8.yaml]

Generally, the base config file configs/pool/base.yaml contains all the possible keys used in this codebase and the bottom config overwrites its base config when the same key is encountered in both files. A good practice would be set the parameters shared for all the experiments in the base experiment config, and set parameters that are different for each experiments to the current experiment config.

For an example run, open configs/projects/tada/tada2d_k400.yaml A. Set DATA.DATA_ROOT_DIR and DATA.DATA_ANNO_DIR to point to the kinetics 400, B. Set the valid gpu number NUM_GPUS Then the codebase can be run by:

python runs/run.py --cfg configs/projects/tada/k400/tada2d_8x8.yaml
