SimAM：无参数Attention！助力分类/检测/分割涨点！

本项目基于中山大学提出的无参数SimAM注意力机制，在Caltech101的16类子集上验证其效果。SimAM从神经科学出发，通过能量函数挖掘神经元重要性，生成三维权重，优于传统一维、二维注意力。项目构建含SimAM的TowerNet模型，与ResNet50等经典网络对比，经数据准备、模型训练后，显示加入SimAM后性能和鲁棒性显著提升，验证了其有效性。

① 项目背景

本文是中山大学在注意力机制方面的尝试，从神经科学理论出发，构建了一种能量函数挖掘神经元重要性，并对此推导出了解析解以加速计算。通过ImageNet分类、COCO检测与分割等任务验证了所提SimAM的灵活性与有效性。值得一提的是，所提SimAM是一种无参数注意力模块。
现有的注意力模块通常被继承到每个块中，以改进来自先前层的输出。这种细化步骤通常沿着通道维度(a)或空间维度(b)操作,这些方法生成一维或二维权重，并平等对待每个通道或空间位置中的神经元，通道注意力：1D注意力，它对不同通道区别对待，对所有位置同等对待；空域注意力：2D注意力，它对不同位置区别对待，对所有通道同等对待。这可能会限制他们学习更多辨别线索的能力。因此三维权重©优于传统的一维和二维权重注意力。
原文中作者推导了一个能量函数，并发现了每个神经元的重要性。根据(Hillyard et al.，1998)，哺乳动物大脑中的注意调节通常表现为神经元反应的增益(即缩放)效应，因此作者使用缩放运算符而不是加法来细化特征，项目后边有介绍函数推导过程。

② 数据准备

2.1 解压缩数据集

我们将网上获取的数据集以压缩包的方式上传到aistudio数据集中，并加载到我们的项目内。

在使用之前我们进行数据集压缩包的一个解压。

In [1]

!unzip -oq /home/aistudio/data/data69664/Images.zip -d work/dataset

In [1]

import paddleimport numpy as npfrom typing import Callable#参数配置config_parameters = {    "class_dim": 16,  #分类数
    "target_path":"/home/aistudio/work/",                     
    'train_image_dir': '/home/aistudio/work/trainImages',    'eval_image_dir': '/home/aistudio/work/evalImages',    'epochs':100,    'batch_size': 32,    'lr': 0.01}

2.2 划分数据集

接下来我们使用标注好的文件进行数据集类的定义，方便后续模型训练使用。

In [3]

import osimport shutil

train_dir = config_parameters['train_image_dir']
eval_dir = config_parameters['eval_image_dir']
paths = os.listdir('work/dataset/Images')if not os.path.exists(train_dir):
    os.mkdir(train_dir)if not os.path.exists(eval_dir):
    os.mkdir(eval_dir)for path in paths:
    imgs_dir = os.listdir(os.path.join('work/dataset/Images', path))
    target_train_dir = os.path.join(train_dir,path)
    target_eval_dir = os.path.join(eval_dir,path)    if not os.path.exists(target_train_dir):
        os.mkdir(target_train_dir)    if not os.path.exists(target_eval_dir):
        os.mkdir(target_eval_dir)    for i in range(len(imgs_dir)):        if ' ' in imgs_dir[i]:
            new_name = imgs_dir[i].replace(' ', '_')        else:
            new_name = imgs_dir[i]
        target_train_path = os.path.join(target_train_dir, new_name)
        target_eval_path = os.path.join(target_eval_dir, new_name)     
        if i % 5 == 0:
            shutil.copyfile(os.path.join(os.path.join('work/dataset/Images', path), imgs_dir[i]), target_eval_path)        else:
            shutil.copyfile(os.path.join(os.path.join('work/dataset/Images', path), imgs_dir[i]), target_train_path)print('finished train val split!')

2.3 数据集定义与数据集展示

2.3.1 数据集展示

我们先看一下解压缩后的数据集长成什么样子,对比分析经典模型在Caltech101抽取16类mini版数据集上的效果

1. 该数据集的源为Caltech101，本次实验共抽取16类来进行比较。
1. 该数据集一共有验证集1440=4532张图片，验证集384=1232张照片。
1. 该数据集主要有以下集中类型的图片，在下方展示。

In [3]

import osimport randomfrom matplotlib import pyplot as pltfrom PIL import Image

imgs = []
paths = os.listdir('work/dataset/Images')for path in paths:   
    img_path = os.path.join('work/dataset/Images', path)    if os.path.isdir(img_path):
        img_paths = os.listdir(img_path)
        img = Image.open(os.path.join(img_path, random.choice(img_paths)))
        imgs.append((img, path))

f, ax = plt.subplots(4, 4, figsize=(12,12))for i, img in enumerate(imgs[:16]):
    ax[i//4, i%4].imshow(img[0])
    ax[i//4, i%4].axis('off')
    ax[i//4, i%4].set_title('label: %s' % img[1])
plt.show()
