Clustering is a class of unsupervised learning methods that has been extensively applied and studied in computer vision. Little work has been done to adapt it to the end-to-end training of visual features on large scale datasets. In this work, we present DeepCluster, a clustering method that jointly learns the parameters of a neural network and the cluster assignments of the resulting features. DeepCluster iteratively groups the features with a standard clustering algorithm, k-means, and uses the subsequent assignments as supervision to update the weights of the network.
In this page, we provide benchmarks as much as possible to evaluate our pre-trained models. If not mentioned, all models are pre-trained on ImageNet-1k dataset.
The classification benchmarks includes 4 downstream task datasets, **VOC**, **ImageNet**, **iNaturalist2018** and **Places205**. If not specified, the results are Top-1 (%).
The **Best Layer** indicates that the best results are obtained from which layers feature map. For example, if the **Best Layer** is **feature3**, its best result is obtained from the second stage of ResNet (1 for stem layer, 2-5 for 4 stage layers).
Besides, k=1 to 96 indicates the hyper-parameter of Low-shot SVM.
The **Feature1 - Feature5** don't have the GlobalAveragePooling, the feature map is pooled to the specific dimensions and then follows a Linear layer to do the classification.

The **AvgPool** result is obtained from Linear Evaluation with GlobalAveragePooling. Please refer to [resnet50_linear-8xb32-steplr-100e_in1k](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmselfsup/blob/1.x/configs/benchmarks/classification/imagenet/resnet50_linear-8xb32-steplr-100e_in1k.py) for details of config.
