disentanglement_lib 是一个开源库,用于研究学习分离表示的研究。
disentanglement_lib is an open-source library for research on learning disentangled representation. It supports a variety of different models, metrics and data sets:
disentanglement_lib was created by Olivier Bachem and Francesco Locatello at Google Brain Zurich for the large-scale empirical study
Challenging Common Assumptions in the Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled Representations. Francesco Locatello, Stefan Bauer, Mario Lucic, Gunnar Rätsch, Sylvain Gelly, Bernhard Schölkopf, Olivier Bachem. ICML (Best Paper Award), 2019.
The code is tested with Python 3 and is meant to be run on Linux systems (such as a Google Cloud Deep Learning VM). It uses TensorFlow, Scipy, Numpy, Scikit-Learn, TFHub and Gin.
disentanglement_lib consists of several different steps:
All configuration details and experimental results of the different steps are saved and propagated along the steps (see below for a description). At the end, they can be aggregated in a single JSON file and analyzed with Pandas.
First, clone this repository with
git clone https://github.com/google-research/disentanglement_lib.git
Then, navigate to the repository (with cd disentanglement_lib) and run
pip install .[tf_gpu]
(or pip install .[tf] for TensorFlow without GPU support).
This should install the package and all the required dependencies.
To verify that everything works, simply run the test suite with
dlib_tests
To download the data required for training the models, navigate to any folder and run
dlib_download_data
which will install all the required data files (except for Shapes3D which is not
publicly released) in the current working directory.
For convenience, we recommend to set the environment variable DISENTANGLEMENT_LIB_DATA to this path, for example by adding
export DISENTANGLEMENT_LIB_DATA=<path to the data directory>
to your .bashrc file. If you choose not to set the environment variable DISENTANGLEMENT_LIB_DATA, disentanglement_lib will always look for the data in your current folder.
To fully train and evaluate one of the 12'600 models in the paper Challenging Common Assumptions in the Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled Representations, simply run
dlib_reproduce --model_num=<?>
where <?> should be replaced with a model index between 0 and 12'599 which
corresponds to the ID of which model to train.
This will take a couple of hours and add a folder output/<?> which contains the trained model (including checkpoints and TFHub modules), the experimental results (in JSON format) and visualizations (including GIFs).
To only print the configuration of that model instead of training, add the flag --only_print.
After having trained several of these models, you can aggregate the results by running the following command (in the same folder)
dlib_aggregate_results
which creates a results.json file with all the aggregated results.
Internally, disentanglement_lib uses gin to configure hyperparameters and other settings.
To train one of the provided models but with different hyperparameters, you need to write a gin config such as examples/model.gin.
Then, you may use the following command
dlib_train --gin_config=examples/model.gin --model_dir=<model_output_directory>
to train the model where --model_dir specifies where the results should be saved.
To evaluate the newly trained model consistent with the evaluation protocol in the paper Challenging Common Assumptions in the Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled Representations, simply run
dlib_reproduce --model_dir=<model_output_directory> --output_directory=<output>
Similarly, you might also want to look at dlib_postprocess and dlib_evaluate if you want to customize how representations are extracted and evaluated.
disentanglement_lib is easily extendible and can be used to implement new models and metrics related to disentangled representations.
To get started, simply go through examples/example.py which shows you how to create your own disentanglement model and metric and how to benchmark them against existing models and metrics.
Reproducing all the 12'600 models in the study Challenging Common Assumptions in the Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled Representations requires a substantial computational effort.
To foster further research, disentanglement_lib includes 10'800 pretrained disentanglement_lib modules that correspond to the results of running dlib_reproduce with --model_num=<?> between 0 and 10'799 (the other models correspond to Shapes3D which is not publicly available).
Each disentanglement_lib module contains the trained model (in the form of a TFHub module), the extracted representations (also as TFHub modules) and the recorded experimental results such as the different disentanglement scores (in JSON format).
This makes it easy to compare new models to the pretrained ones and to compute new disentanglement metrics on the set of pretrained models.
To access the 10'800 pretrained disentanglement_lib modules, you may download individual ones using the following link:
https://storage.googleapis.com/disentanglement_lib/unsupervised_study_v1/<?>.zip
where <?> corresponds to a model index between 0 and 10'799 (example).
Each ZIP file in the bucket corresponds to one run of dlib_reproduce with that model number.
To learn more about the used configuration settings, look at the code in disentanglement_lib/config/unsupervised_study_v1/sweep.py or run:
dlib_reproduce --model_num=<?> --only_print
If you run dlib_reproduce, they are automatically saved to the visualizations subfolder in your output directory. Otherwise, you can use the script dlib_visualize_dataset to generate them or call the function visualize(...) in disentanglement_lib/visualize/visualize_model.py.
After each of the main steps (training/postprocessing/evaluation), an output directory is created.
For all steps, there is a results folder which contains all the configuration settings and experimental results up to that step.
The gin subfolder contains the operative gin config for each step in the gin format.
The json subfolder contains files with the operative gin config and the experimental results of that step but in JSON format.
Finally, the aggregate subfolder contains aggregated JSON files where each file contains both the configs and results from all preceding steps.
The training step further saves the TensorFlow checkpoint (in a tf_checkpoint subfolder) and the trained model as a TFHub module (in a tfhub subfolder). Similarly, the postprocessing step saves the representation function as a TFHub module (in a tfhub subfolder).
If you run dlib_reproduce, it will create subfolders for all the different substeps that you ran. In particular, it will create an output directory for each metric that you computed.
To access the results, first aggregate all the results using dlib_aggregate_results by specifying a glob pattern that captures all the results files.
For example, after training a couple of different models with dlib_reproduce, you would specify
dlib_aggregate --output_path=<...>.json \
--result_file_pattern=<...>/*/metrics/*/*/results/aggregate/evaluation.json
The first * in the glob pattern would capture the different models, the second * different representations and the last * the different metrics. Finally, you may access the aggregated results with:
from disentanglement_lib.utils import aggregate_results
df = aggregate_results.load_aggregated_json_results(output_path)
The following provides a guide to the overall code structure:

GaussianEncoderModel class.disentanglement_lib/methods/shared:
Contains shared architectures, losses, and optimizers used in the different models.(2) Postprocessing step:
disentanglement_lib/postprocess:
Contains the postprocessing pipeline (postprocess.py) and the two extraction methods (methods.py).(3) Evaluation step:
disentanglement_lib/evaluation: Contains the evaluation protocol (evaluate.py).
disentanglement_lib/evaluation/metrics:
Contains implementation of the different disentanglement metrics.
Hyperparameters and configuration files:
disentanglement_lib/config/unsupervised_study_v1:
Contains the gin configuration files (*.gin) for the different steps as well as the hyperparameter sweep (sweep.py) for the experiments in the paper Challenging Common Assumptions in the Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled Representations.Shared functionality:
bin: Scripts to run the different pipelines, visualize the data sets as well as the models and aggregate the results.
disentanglement_lib/data/ground_truth:
Contains all the scripts used to generate the data. All the datasets (in named_data.py) are instances of the class GroundTruthData}.
disentanglement_lib/utils:

The library is also used for the NeurIPS 2019 Disentanglement challenge. The challenge consists of three different datasets.
Currently, only the simplistic rendered dataset is publicly available and will be automatically downloaded by running the following command.
