# News

> -  **[2021-9-13]**: **`v0.0.1` has been released: `config.yaml` will be created to store the configuration in the experiment folder.**
> - **[2021-9-6]**: `v0.0.0` has been released.

# Introduction

**GeDML** is an easy-to-use **generalized deep metric learning** library, which contains:
- **State-of-the-art DML algorithms:** We contrain 18+ losses functions and 6+ sampling strategies, and divide these algorithms into three categories (i.e., collectors, selectors, and losses).
- **Bridge bewteen DML and SSL**: We attempt to bridge the gap between deep metric learning and self-supervised learning through specially designed modules, such as `collectors`.
- **Auxiliary modules to assist in building:** We also encapsulates the upper interface for users to start programs quickly and separates the codes and configs for managing hyper-parameters conveniently.

# Installation

## Pip

```bash
pip install gedml
```

# Quickstart

Please set the environment variable `WORKSPACE` first to indicate where to manage your project and download [`config`](examples/config) which include `args.csv`, `assert.yaml`, `links`, `param`, `wrapper`.

(Demo of convenient and fast switching between DML and SSL)

## Setting launch.json in VS Code

```json
"env": {
    "CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES": "0"
},
"args": [
    "--device", "0",
    "--delete_old",
    "--batch_size", "180",
    "--test_batch_size", "180",
    "--setting", "margin_loss",
    "--margin_alpha", "1",
    "--margin_beta", "0.5",
    "--lr", "0.00003",
    // "--use_wandb",
]
```

## Initialization

Use `ParserWithConvert` to get parameters

```python
>>> from gedml.launcher.misc import ParserWithConvert
>>> csv_path = ...
>>> parser = ParserWithConvert(csv_path=csv_path, name="...")
>>> opt, convert_dict = parser.render()
```

Use `ConfigHandler` to create all objects.

```python
>>> from gedml.launcher.creators import ConfigHandler
>>> link_path = ...
>>> assert_path = ...
>>> param_path = ...
>>> wrapper_path = ...
>>> config_handler = ConfigHandler(
    convert_dict=convert_dict,
    link_path=link_path,
    assert_path=assert_path,
    params_path=param_path,
    wrapper_path=wrapper_path,
    is_confirm_first=True
)
>>> config_handler.get_params_dict()
>>> objects_dict = config_handler.create_all()
```

## Start

Use `manager` to automatically call `trainer` and `tester`.

```python
>>> from gedml.launcher.misc import utils
>>> manager = utils.get_default(objects_dict, "managers")
>>> manager.run()
```

Or directly use `trainer` and `tester`.

```python
>>> from gedml.launcher.misc import utils
>>> trainer = utils.get_default(objects_dict, "trainers")
>>> tester = utils.get_default(objects_dict, "testers")
>>> recorder = utils.get_default(objects_dict, "recorders")
# start to train
>>> utils.func_params_mediator(
    [objects_dict],
    trainer.__call__
)
# start to test
>>> metrics = utils.func_params_mediator(
    [
        {"recorders": recorder},
        objects_dict,
    ],
    tester.__call__
)
```
