## 📍 Overview
Welcome to the Self-Supervised Learning Library! This repository hosts a collection of tools and implementations for self-supervised learning. Self-supervised learning is a powerful paradigm that leverages unlabeled data to pre-trained models, which can then be fine-tuned on specific tasks with smaller labeled datasets. This library aims to provide researchers and practitioners with a comprehensive set of tools to experiment, learn, and apply self-supervised learning techniques effectively.
This project was our assignment during the summer apprenticeship and final project in the newly established Intelligent and Learning System ([ILS](http://ils.ui.ac.ir/)) laboratory at the University of Isfahan.

## ✍️ Self Supervised Learning

Self-supervised learning is a subfield of machine learning where models are trained to predict certain aspects of the input data without relying on manual labeling. This approach has gained significant attention due to its ability to leverage large amounts of unlabeled data, which is often easier to obtain than fully annotated datasets. This library provides implementations of various self-supervised techniques, allowing you to experiment with and apply these methods in your own projects.

Using AK_SSL, you have the flexibility to leverage the most recent self-supervised learning techniques seamlessly, harnessing the complete capabilities of PyTorch. You can explore diverse backbones, models, and optimizer while benefiting from a user-friendly framework that has been purposefully crafted for ease of use.


### Initializing the Trainer for Vision Models

You can easily import Trainer module from AK_SSL library and start utilizing it right away.

```python
from AK_SSL.vision import Trainer
```

Now, let's initialize the self-supervised trainer with our chosen method, backbone, dataset, and other configurations.

```python
trainer = Trainer(
    method="barlowtwins",           # training method as string (BarlowTwins, BYOL, DINO, MoCov2, MoCov3, SimCLR, SimSiam, SwAV)
    backbone=backbone,              # backbone architecture as torch.Module
    feature_size=feature_size,      # size of the extracted features as integer
    image_size=32,                  # dataset image size as integer
    save_dir="./save_for_report/",  # directory to save training checkpoints and Tensorboard logs as string

    **kwargs                        # other arguments 
)
```
Note: The use of **kwargs can differ between methods, depending on the specific method, loss function, transformation, and other factors. If you are utilizing any of the objectives listed below, you must provide their arguments during the initialization of the Trainer class.

### Training the Self-Supervised Model for Vision Models

Then, we'll train the self-supervised model using the specified parameters.

```python
  trainer.train(
      dataset=train_dataset,          # training dataset as torch.utils.data.Dataset               
      batch_size=256,          # the number of training examples used in each iteration as integer
      start_epoch=1,           # the starting epoch for training as integer (if 'reload_checkpoint' parameter was True, start epoch equals to the latest checkpoint epoch)
      epochs=100,              # the total number of training epochs as integer
      optimizer="Adam",        # the optimization algorithm used for training as string (Adam, SGD, or AdamW)
      weight_decay=1e-6,       # a regularization term to prevent overfitting by penalizing large weights as float
      learning_rate=1e-3,      # the learning rate for the optimizer as float
)
```

### Training the Self-Supervised Model for Multimodal Models

Then, we'll train the self-supervised model using the specified parameters.

```python
  trainer.train(
      dataset=train_dataset,           # the training data set as torch.utils.data.Dataset             
      batch_size=256,          # the number of training examples used in each iteration as integer
      start_epoch=1,           # the starting epoch for training as integer (if 'reload_checkpoint' parameter was True, start epoch equals to the latest checkpoint epoch)
      epochs=100,              # the total number of training epochs as integer

      learning_rate=1e-3,      # the learning rate for the optimizer as float
)
```


### Evaluating the Vision Self-Supervised Models
This evaluation assesses how well the pre-trained model performs on a dataset, specifically for tasks related to linear evaluation.
```python
trainer.evaluate(
    train_dataset=train_dataset,      # to specify the training dataset as torch.utils.data.Dataset
    test_dataset=test_dataset,        # to specify the testing dataset as torch.utils.data.Dataset

    optimizer='Adam',                 # the optimization algorithm used during evaluation as string (Adam, SGD, or AdamW)
    weight_decay=1e-6,                # a regularization term applied during evaluation to prevent overfitting as float
    learning_rate=1e-3,               # the learning rate for the optimizer during evaluation as float
    batch_size=256,                   # the batch size used for evaluation in integer
    fine_tuning_data_proportion=1,    # the proportion of training data to use during evaluation as float in range of (0.0, 1]
)
```

### Get the Vision Self-Supervised Models backbone

In case you want to use the pre-trained network in your own downstream task, you need to define a downstream task model. This model should include the self-supervised model backbone as one of its components. Here's an example of how to define a simple downstream model class:

```python
  class DownstreamNet(nn.Module):
      def __init__(self, backbone, **kwargs):
          super().__init__()
          self.backbone = backbone
  
          # You can define your downstream task model here
  
      def forward(self, x):
          x = self.backbone(x)
          # ...
  
  
  downstream_model = DownstreamNet(trainer.get_backbone())
```

### Loading Self-Supervised Model Checkpoint

To load a previous checkpoint into the network, you can do as below.
```python
path = 'YOUR CHECKPOINT PATH'
trainer.load_checkpoint(path)
```

### Saving Self-Supervised Model backbone
To save model backbone, you can do as below.

```python
trainer.save_backbone()
```


That's it! You've successfully trained and evaluate a self-supervised model using the AK_SSL Python library. You can further customize and experiment with different self-supervised methods, backbones, and hyperparameters to suit your specific tasks.
You can find the description of Trainer class and its function using `help` built in fuction in python.
