Running fixmatch with RandAugment

[dsuess]

First of all, thanks for publishing the code for this paper -- it makes reproducing your work much easier.

I am trying to run fixmatch with RandAugment+Cutout instead of CTAugment (as it's much easier to implement in practice and the performance is often comparable). I've read #4 which states that fixmatch always uses CTAugment (additionally to what's provided in the --augment flag). So if I understand this correctly, --augment d.d.rac does not achieve what I want since CTAugment is always added on top? I suspect that's what's happening since I still see the CTAugment-weight printout when running training with that argument.

If that's the case, is there an easy way to disable CTAugment?

You can see the ablations for lots of examples on how we do these experiments, e.g.,
