Experimental Results

Preliminaries

It is tested under Ubuntu Linux 16.04.1 and Python 3.6 environment, and requires some packages to be installed:

• PyTorch
• scipy
• numpy
• sklearn

Downloading In-distribution Dataset

• SVHN: need to download Format 2 data.
• CIFAR: included in PyTorch.

Downloading Auxiliary OOD Datasets

• 80 Million Tiny Images: to download 80 Million Tiny Images dataset. In the root directory, run

cd datasets/unlabeled_datasets/80M_Tiny_Images
wget http://horatio.cs.nyu.edu/mit/tiny/data/tiny_images.bin

• Downsampled ImageNet Datasets: we use the ImageNet64x64, which could be downloaded from ImageNet Website. After downloading it, place it in this directory: datasets/unlabeled_datasets/ImageNet.

Downloading Out-of-distribution Test Datasets

We provide links and instructions to download each dataset:

• SVHN: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/svhn. Then run python select_svhn_data.py to generate test subset.
• Textures: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/dtd.
• Places365: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/places365/test_subset. We randomly sample 10,000 images from the original test dataset. We provide the file names for the images that we sample in datasets/ood_datasets/places365/test_subset/places365_test_list.txt.
• LSUN-C: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/LSUN.
• LSUN-R: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/LSUN_resize.
• iSUN: download it and place it in the folder of datasets/ood_datasets/iSUN.

For example, run the following commands in the root directory to download LSUN-C:

cd datasets/ood_datasets
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/fhtsw1m3qxlwj6h/LSUN.tar.gz
tar -xvzf LSUN.tar.gz

Downloading Pre-trained Models

We provide pre-trained DenseNet models for vanilla, SOFL, OE, ACET, CCU, ROWL, NTOM, and ATOM methods on SVHN, CIFAR-10, and CIFAR-100 datasets using TinyImages as auxiliary OOD dataset. We also provide pre-trained WideResNet models for vanilla, NTOM, and ATOM methods on SVHN, CIFAR-10, and CIFAR-100 datasets using TinyImages as auxiliary OOD dataset. They can be downloaded from Google Drive.

Overview of the Code

Running Experiments

• select_svhn_data.py: select SVHN test data.
• eval_ood_detection.py: evaluate OOD detection performance of models.
• compute_metrics.py: compute metrics of evaluation results.
• gen_rowl_train_data.py: generate ROWL training data.
• gen_validation_data.py: generate validation data used to select the best q.
• train_acet.py: train ACET model.
• train_atom.py: train ATOM model.
• train_ccu.py: train CCU model.
• train_oe.py: train OE model.
• train_rowl.py: train ROWL model.
• train_sofl.py: train SOFL model.
• train.py: train vanilla model.
• tune_mahalanobis_hyperparams.py: tune hyperparameters of Mahalanobis detector.
• tune_odin_hyperparams.py: tune hyperparameters of ODIN detector.

Example

For CIFAR-10 experiments, you can run the following script to get the results:

./run_all_cifar10_exps.sh

To evaluate an OOD detection method, you can use the following command:

python eval_ood_detection.py --in-dataset {in-distribution dataset} --name {model name} --method {scoring function} [--adv or --corrupt or --adv-corrupt]

The argument --adv is to evaluate L_inf OOD, --corrupt is to evaluate Corrupted OOD, --adv-corrupt is to evaluate Comp. OOD. You can only specify one of them. Without them, it will evaluate natural OOD.

{in-distribution dataset} can be SVHN, CIFAR-10 or CIFAR-100.

{scoring function} can be msp, odin, mahalanobis, sofl, rowl, ntom or atom.

{model name} is the name of the model that you have trained. The model type should match the corresponding scoring function. See the following table for the matchings:

Model Type	Scoring Function
vanilla	msp
vanilla	odin
vanilla	mahalanobis
SOFL	sofl
OE	msp
ACET	msp
CCU	msp
ROWL	rowl
NTOM	ntom
ATOM	atom
