1. What we are doing

1.1. The problems:

• Key word spotting in audio.
• Dataset : Speech Command

What we are concerning about

• High accuracy on the test set
• Super small model size for edge deployment

What we are doing here

• We will use model distillation to pass knowledge from a big model to a small one
• We will use Optuna for parameters search
• We will use Torch lightling as boilerplace for this project
• We will use weight and bias as monitoring tool

2. Share development env by VS code remote container

Please read though some concept here

This will spin up the development environment with minimal setup.

1. Install and configure git password manager - this will help to share git configuration to the container

2. Run the "Remote-Containers: Reopen in Container" command

3. Steps to train the model

1. Train simple convolution

    python train.py

2. Train Bc ResNet model

    python train.py --model bc_resnet

4. Steps to test the model

1. Train simple convolution

    python test.py --pretrain path_to_pretrain

2. Train Bc ResNet model

    python test.py --model bc_resnet --pretrain path_to_pretrain

5. The result

a. Model include in the work - No parameters search

Model	Description	Params	Model accuracy
Simple Convolution	A straight forward 1D convolution	26900	94.2%
BC Resnet	Experiment logging	10600	95.6%

b. Model optimized with Optuna

Model	Description	Params	Model accuracy
Simple Convolution	A straight forward 1D convolution	35000	95.1%
BC Resnet	Experiment logging	22000	98.3% - best

c. Model train with distillation loss

Model	Description	Params	Model accuracy
Simple Convolution	A straight forward 1D convolution	28600	90.3%
BC Resnet	Experiment logging

d. Hightlight point

• My best model have 22k parameters and accuracy on test set = 98.3% (Optuna optimized)
• Almost beat the state-of-art(98.5)
• The model size is superior compare with all other state-of-art model by some order of magnitude
• The distillation process is not success and it causing the model perform worst than non distill

6. Other Development setups

Poetry usage

1. Install depenedencies

    pip install poetry
    poetry install

2. Add new dependencies

    poetry add package_name
