Dog Breed Identification challenge

  • splite train set into 5 parts with sklearn StratifiedKFold
  • 4 parts are used as train-1 set and 1 is used as valid-1 set
  • this is done by StratifiedKFold.split method which returns indexes for train-1 set (80% of original train) and indexes for valid-1 set (20% of original train)
  • tune a model
  • do TTA predictions for test and valid-1 (20% of train set)
  • iterate through this 5 times

@jamesrequa knows this better than me. I used two different ways:

  • just avg(sum(all predictions))
  • extracted features from convolutional layers from different models are stacked together and only than I feed them into FC layer.
