CORAL & CORN implementations for ordinal regression with deep neural networks.

PyPI version License Python 3


Documentation: https://Raschka-research-group.github.io/coral-pytorch


Installation

pip install coral-pytorch

About

CORAL (COnsistent RAnk Logits) and CORN (Conditional Ordinal Regression for Neural networks) are methods for ordinal regression with deep neural networks, which address the rank inconsistency issue of other ordinal regression frameworks.

Originally, developed this method in the context of age prediction from face images. Our approach was evaluated on several face image datasets for age prediction using ResNet-34, but it is compatible with other state-of-the-art deep neural networks.

This repository implements the CORAL and CORN functionality (neural network layer, loss function, and dataset utilities) for convenient use. Examples are provided via the "Tutorials" that can be found on the documentation website at https://Raschka-research-group.github.io/coral-pytorch.

If you are looking for the orginal implementation, training datasets, and training log files corresponding to the paper, you can find these here:
