💡 Pro tip: This is one of those techniques that will make you look like a data science wizard! Transfer Learning: Leveraging Pre-trained Models - Made Simple!

Transfer learning is a machine learning technique where a model developed for one task is reused as the starting point for a model on a second task. This way is particularly useful when you have limited data for your target task but can leverage knowledge from a related task with abundant data.

Let me walk you through this step by step! Here’s how we can tackle this:

import torch
import torchvision.models as models
from torch import nn

# Load a pre-trained ResNet model
resnet = models.resnet50(pretrained=True)

# Freeze all layers
for param in resnet.parameters():
    param.requires_grad = False

# Replace the last fully connected layer
num_ftrs = resnet.fc.in_features
resnet.fc = nn.Linear(num_ftrs, 10)  # 10 is the number of classes in our new task

# Now only the last layer will be trained
for param in resnet.fc.parameters():
    param.requires_grad = True

# The model is ready for fine-tuning on your new task

🎉 You’re doing great! This concept might seem tricky at first, but you’ve got this! Fine-tuning: Adapting Pre-trained Models - Made Simple!

Fine-tuning involves taking a pre-trained model and further training it on a new, related task. This process allows the model to adapt its learned features to the specific nuances of the new task while retaining the general knowledge acquired from the original task.

Don’t worry, this is easier than it looks! Here’s how we can tackle this:

import torch
import torch.optim as optim
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader
from torchvision import datasets, transforms

# Assume 'resnet' is our pre-trained model from the previous slide

# Define transformations
transform = transforms.Compose([
    transforms.Resize(256),
    transforms.CenterCrop(224),
    transforms.ToTensor(),
    transforms.Normalize(mean=[0.485, 0.456, 0.406], std=[0.229, 0.224, 0.225]),
])

# Load your dataset
train_dataset = datasets.ImageFolder('path/to/your/dataset', transform=transform)
train_loader = DataLoader(train_dataset, batch_size=32, shuffle=True)

# Define loss function and optimizer
criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss()
optimizer = optim.SGD(resnet.fc.parameters(), lr=0.001, momentum=0.9)

# Fine-tuning loop
for epoch in range(5):  # 5 epochs as an example
    for inputs, labels in train_loader:
        optimizer.zero_grad()
        outputs = resnet(inputs)
        loss = criterion(outputs, labels)
        loss.backward()
        optimizer.step()

print("Fine-tuning completed")

✨ Cool fact: Many professional data scientists use this exact approach in their daily work! Feature Extraction: Utilizing Pre-trained Models as Feature Extractors - Made Simple!

Feature extraction is another transfer learning technique where we use a pre-trained model to extract meaningful features from our data, then train a new classifier on these features. This is useful when we believe the pre-trained model has learned general features that are also relevant to our new task.

This next part is really neat! Here’s how we can tackle this:

import torch
import torch.nn as nn
from torchvision import models

# Load pre-trained ResNet model
resnet = models.resnet50(pretrained=True)

# Remove the last fully connected layer
feature_extractor = nn.Sequential(*list(resnet.children())[:-1])

# Freeze all parameters
for param in feature_extractor.parameters():
    param.requires_grad = False

# Function to extract features
def extract_features(input_batch):
    with torch.no_grad():
        features = feature_extractor(input_batch)
    return features.view(features.size(0), -1)

# Now you can use this function to extract features from your data
# and train a new classifier on these features
