How to install relevant libraries

You'll need the following dependencies installed to use this repo:

We recommend installing the above libraries in a virtual environment. If you're unfamiliar with Python virtual environments, check out the user guide. Create a virtual environment with the version of Python you're going to use and activate it.

You should be able to run the command:

python3 -m venv <your-venv-name>

You can activate your venv by running

source ~/<your-venv-name>/bin/activate

Install Dependencies

We've packaged up the example scripts here into a simple Python package. To install it, just pip install it

git clone https://github.com/huggingface/community-events.git
cd community-events
pip install .

If you use pip install -e . instead of pip install, it will install the package in development mode, which can be useful if you are planning on contributing any changes here 🤗.

General workflow

The process to follow is outlined below. It consists of 3 steps:

  1. Get a dataset and push to the Hub
  2. Train a model and push to the Hub
  3. Create a demo (🤗 Space)

These steps are explained in more detail below.

1. Get a dataset and push to Hub

The first step is the most obvious one: to train a GAN (or any neural network), we need a dataset. This could be either a dataset that is already available on the Hub, or one that isn't already. Below we'll explain how to load the data in both cases.

Note that we maintain a list of interesting datasets to add to the Hub here.

1.1 Use a dataset already available on the Hub

Most famous computer vision datasets are already available on the Hub (such as MNIST, Fashion MNIST, CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, etc.).

Loading a dataset can be done as follows:

from datasets import load_dataset

# a general one ...
dataset = load_dataset("mnist")

# ... or one that's part of the huggan organization
dataset = load_dataset("huggan/edges2shoes")

In a notebook, you can directly see the images by selecting a split and then the appropriate column:

example = dataset['train'][0]
print(example['image'])

1.2 Upload a new dataset to the Hub

In case your dataset is not already on the Hub, you can upload it to the huggan organization. If you've signed up for the event by filling in the spreadsheet, your Hugging Face account should be part of it.

Let's illustrate with an example how this was done for NVIDIA's MetFaces dataset:

drawing

Previously, this dataset was only hosted on Google Drive, and not really easily accessible.

To begin with, one should check that one is correctly logged in and that git-lfs is installed so that the dataset can be uploaded.

Run:

huggingface-cli login

in a terminal, or case you're working in a notebook

from huggingface_hub import notebook_login

notebook_login()

It is recommended to login with your access token that can be found under your HuggingFace profile (icon in the top right corner on hf.co, then Settings -> Access Tokens -> User Access Tokens -> New Token (if you haven't generated one already). Alternatively, you can go to your token settings directly.

You can then copy-paste this token to log in locally.

Next, let's make sure that git-lfs is correctly installed. To so, simply run:

git-lfs -v

The output should show something like git-lfs/2.13.2 (GitHub; linux amd64; go 1.15.4). If your console states that the git-lfs command was not found, please make sure to install it here or simply via: 

sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

Next, one can leverage the ImageFolder builder to very easily upload an image dataset to the hub. In case the dataset you're uploading has a direct download URL, you can simply provide it to the data_files argument as shown below. Otherwise, you'll need to go to the link of the dataset and manually download it first as a zip/tar (which was the case for MetFaces), and provide the file through the data_files argument. Alternatively, it may be that you have a folder with images, in which case you can provide it using the data_dir argument. Note that the latter assumes a particular structure.

from datasets import load_dataset

# option 1: local folder
dataset = load_dataset("imagefolder", data_dir="path_to_folder")
# option 2: local or remote file(s), supporting the following extensions: tar, gzip, zip, xz, rar, zstd
dataset = load_dataset("imagefolder", data_files="path_to_file_or_direct_download_link")

# note that you can also provide them as separate splits, like so:
dataset = load_dataset("imagefolder", data_files={"train": ["path/to/file1", "path/to/file2"], "test": ["path/to/file3", "path/to/file4"]})

Once you've loaded your dataset, you can push it to the Hub with a single line of code:

dataset.push_to_hub("huggan/name-of-your-dataset")

Et voila! Your dataset is now available on the Hub :) If you wait a bit, the Dataset viewer should be able to preview images in the browser. The MetFaces dataset can be seen here: https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggan/metfaces.

drawing

The cool thing is that anyone can now access this dataset from anywhere, using load_dataset 🎉🥳 this means that you can easily load the dataset on another computer for instance, or in a different environment. Amazing, isn't it?

❗ Note: When uploading a dataset, make sure that it has appropriate column names. The ImageFolder utility automatically creates image and label columns, however if there's only one image class, it makes sense to remove the label column before pushing to the hub. This can be done as follows:

dataset = dataset.remove_columns("label")

Note that you can always update a dataset by simply calling push_to_hub again (providing the same name).

1.3 Processing the data

Once you've uploaded your dataset, you can load it and create a dataloader for it. The code example below shows how to apply some data augmentation and creating a PyTorch Dataloader (the PyTorch example scripts all leverage this). More info can also be found in the docs.

from datasets import load_dataset
from torchvision.transforms import CenterCrop, Compose, Normalize, Resize, ToTensor
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader

# load your data
dataset = load_dataset("dataset_name")

image_size = 256

# define image transformations (e.g. using torchvision)
transform = Compose(
    [
        Resize(image_size),
        CenterCrop(image_size),
        ToTensor(),
        Normalize((0.5, 0.5, 0.5), (0.5, 0.5, 0.5)),
    ]
)

# define function
def transforms(examples):
   examples["image"] = [transform(image.convert("RGB")) for image in examples["image"]]

   return examples

transformed_dataset = dataset.with_transform(transforms)

# create dataloader
dataloader = DataLoader(
     transformed_dataset["train"], batch_size="your batch size", shuffle=True, num_workers="your number of CPU cores"
)

As can be seen, we leverage the with_transform method here, which will make sure the image transformations will only be performed when iterating over the data (i.e. data augmentation is performed on-the-fly, making it very RAM-friendly) rather than performing it on the entire dataset in one go (which would be the case if you use map). The with_transform method does the same thing as set_transform, except that it does return a new Dataset rather than performing the operation in-place.

2. Train a model and push to Hub

Next, one can start training a model. This could be any model you'd like. However, we provide some example scripts to help you get started, in both PyTorch and Tensorflow. An example is the DCGAN model for unconditional image generation. Simply follow the README that explains all the details of the relevant implementation, and run it in your environment.

The PyTorch example scripts all leverage 🤗 Accelerate, which provides an easy API to make your scripts run on any kind of distributed setting (multi-GPUs, TPUs etc.) and with mixed precision, while still letting you write your own training loop.

Alternatively, we also provide a Links to Check Out section to give you some inspiration.

Below, we explain in more detail how to upload your model to the Hub, depending on the framework you're using (sections 2.1 and 2.2). In section 2.3, we'll explain how to write a nice model card. In section 2.4, we'll illustrate alternative ways to upload (and re-use) a model to (and from) the hub. Finally, in section 2.5, we explain 🤗 Accelerate, the awesome library that makes training PyTorch models on any kind of environment a breeze. Be sure to check it out!

2.1 PyTorch

If you're planning to train a custom PyTorch model, it's recommended to make it inherit from PyTorchModelHubMixin. This makes sure you can push it to the Hub at the end of training, and reload it afterwards using from_pretrained, as shown in the code example below:

from huggingface_hub import PyTorchModelHubMixin

class MyGenerator(nn.Module, PyTorchModelHubMixin):
   def __init__(self, **kwargs):
      super().__init__()
      self.config = kwargs.pop("config", None)
      self.layer = ...
   def forward(self, ...):
      return ...

# Create model
model = MyGenerator()

# Push to HuggingFace Hub
model.push_to_hub("huggan/name-of-your-model").

# Reload from HuggingFace Hub
reloaded = MyGenerator.from_pretrained("huggan/name-of-your-model").

This PyTorchModelHubMixin class is available in the huggingface_hub library, which comes pre-installed if you install datasets (or transformers) in your environment.

2.2 Keras

In Keras, one can leverage the push_to_hub_keras and from_pretrained_keras methods:

import tensorflow as tf
from huggingface_hub import push_to_hub_keras, from_pretrained_keras

# Build a Keras model
inputs = tf.keras.layers.Input(shape=(2,))
x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(2, activation="relu")(inputs)
model = tf.keras.models.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=x)
model.compile(optimizer="adam", loss="mse")

# Push to HuggingFace Hub
push_to_hub_keras(model, "huggan/my-cool-model")

# Reload from HuggingFace Hub
reloaded = from_pretrained_keras("huggan/my-cool-model")

These methods are available in the huggingface_hub library, which comes pre-installed if you install datasets (or transformers) in your environment. Note that the push_to_hub_keras method supports pushing several models (such as a generator and discriminator) to the same repo, as illustrated here.

2.3 Alternative ways to upload a model to the Hub

Besides the methods explained in sections 2.1 and 2.2 above, you can also share model assets directly from git, which is explained in depth in this guide.

2.4 Model cards

When uploading a model to the Hub, it's important to include a so-called model card with it. This is just a README (in Markdown) 🃏 that includes:

  • license,
  • task,
  • huggan and gan tags,
  • dataset metadata,
  • information related to the model,
  • information on dataset, intended uses,
  • a model output.

If you trained one of the example models, this model card will be automatically generated for you. If you didn’t train the model yourself, be sure to both credit the original authors and include the associated license in your model card! Here is an example model repo.

You can also use this template model card as a guide to build your own.

2.5 Accelerate

HuggingFace accelerate is an awesome library for training PyTorch models. Here we show why.

Basically, the library requires to replace this:

my_model.to(device)

for batch in my_training_dataloader:
    my_optimizer.zero_grad()
    inputs, targets = batch
    inputs = inputs.to(device)
    targets = targets.to(device)
    outputs = my_model(inputs)
    loss = my_loss_function(outputs, targets)
    loss.backward()
    my_optimizer.step()

by this:

+ from accelerate import Accelerator

+ accelerator = Accelerator()
- my_model.to(device)
  # Pass every important object (model, optimizer, dataloader) to *accelerator.prepare*
+ my_model, my_optimizer, my_training_dataloader = accelerate.prepare(
+     my_model, my_optimizer, my_training_dataloader
+ )

  for batch in my_training_dataloader:
      my_optimizer.zero_grad()
      inputs, targets = batch
-     inputs = inputs.to(device)
-     targets = targets.to(device)
      outputs = my_model(inputs)
      loss = my_loss_function(outputs, targets)
      # Just a small change for the backward instruction
-     loss.backward()
+     accelerator.backward(loss)
      my_optimizer.step()

and BOOM, your script runs on any kind of hardware, including CPU, multi-CPU, GPU, multi-GPU and TPU. It also supports things like DeepSpeed and mixed precision for training efficiently.

You can now run your script as follows:

accelerate config

=> Accelerate will ask what kind of environment you'd like to run your script on, simply answer the questions being asked. Next:

accelerate launch <your script.py>

This will run your script on the environment you asked for. You can always check the environment settings by typing:

accelerate env

You can of course change the environment by running accelerate config again.

3. Create a demo

Once you share a model, you then should share a Space based on your SDK of choice (Gradio or Streamlit) or as a static page. 🌌

General Tips and Tricks

  • Memory efficient training:

In case, you are getting out-of-memory errors on your GPU, we recommend to use bitsandbytes to replace the native memory-intensive Adam optimizer with the one of bitsandbytes. It can be used to both train the generator and the discriminator in case you're training a GAN.
