BYOL
Bootstrap your own latent: A new approach to self-supervised Learning
Abstract
Bootstrap Your Own Latent (BYOL) is a new approach to self-supervised image representation learning. BYOL relies on two neural networks, referred to as online and target networks, that interact and learn from each other. From an augmented view of an image, we train the online network to predict the target network representation of the same image under a different augmented view. At the same time, we update the target network with a slow-moving average of the online network.

Results and Models
Back to model_zoo.md to download models.
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.
Classification
The classification benchmarks includes 4 downstream task datasets, VOC, ImageNet, iNaturalist2018 and Places205. If not specified, the results are Top-1 (%).
VOC SVM / Low-shot SVM
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.
Self-Supervised Config | Best Layer | SVM | k=1 | k=2 | k=4 | k=8 | k=16 | k=32 | k=64 | k=96 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
resnet50_8xb32-accum16-coslr-200e | feature5 | 86.31 | 45.37 | 56.83 | 68.47 | 74.12 | 78.30 | 81.53 | 83.56 | 84.73 |
ImageNet Linear Evaluation
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. Please refer to resnet50_mhead_linear-8xb32-steplr-90e_in1k for details of config.
The AvgPool result is obtained from Linear Evaluation with GlobalAveragePooling. Please refer to resnet50_linear-8xb512-coslr-90e_in1k for details of config.

resnet50_16xb256-coslr-200e | 15.41 | 35.15 | 47.77 | 62.59 | 71.85 | 71.88 |
Places205 Linear Evaluation
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. Please refer to resnet50_mhead_8xb32-steplr-28e_places205.py for details of config.

resnet50_8xb32-accum16-coslr-300e | 21.18 | 36.68 | 43.42 | 51.04 | 54.06 |
ImageNet Nearest-Neighbor Classification
The results are obtained from the features after GlobalAveragePooling. Here, k=10 to 200 indicates different number of nearest neighbors.
Self-Supervised Config | k=10 | k=20 | k=100 | k=200 |
---|---|---|---|---|
resnet50_8xb32-accum16-coslr-200e | 63.9 | 64.2 | 62.9 | 61.9 |
resnet50_8xb32-accum16-coslr-300e | 66.1 | 66.3 | 65.2 | 64.4 |
