Classifying 10 Famous Personality Image Dataset using Residual Network in PyTorch

A.K.A. Training an image classifier from scratch to over 90% accuracy in around 1 minute on a single GPU

In this project, we'll use the following techniques to train a state-of-the-art model in around 1 minute to achieve over 90% accuracy in classifying images from the 10 Famous personality Image Dataset,

  • Data normalization
  • Data augmentation
  • Residual connections
  • Batch normalization
  • Learning rate scheduling
  • Weight Decay
  • Gradient clipping
  • Adam optimizer
