Benchmarking-Deep-Learning-Frameworks

The frameworks that are included in this benchmark are:

1-Keras
2-Chainer
3-Tensorflow
4-Pytorch
5-Theano
6-Mxnet

The CNN Experiments comparing those frameworks over 4 datasets:

1- MNIST
2- CIFAR10
3- CIFAR100
4- SVHN

The LSTM Experiments comparing those frameworks over 3 datasets:

1- PTB
2- Manythings
3- IMDB

The FRCNN Experiment comparing those frameworks over 1 dataset:

1- VOC12

There are two experiments one of them uses CPU and the other uses GPU.

This repository is divided into 3 folders:

1- CPU Experiment 

* The CPU experiments are performed on a single machine running on Centos release 7.5.1804 with 32 core Intel Xeon Processor (Skylake,  IBRS) @ 2.00GHz;64 GB DIMM memory; and 240 GB SSD hard drive.
* For Keras, version 2.2.4 is used on Tensorflow 1.11.0. 
* For Chainer, version 4.5.0 is used. 
* For Tensorflow, version 1.11 is used. 
* For Pytorch, version 0.4.1 is used
* For Theano, version 1.0.2 is used. 
* For MXNet, version 1.3.0 is used.
* It contain the CPU source code 
* The Generated graphs 
* The logs of the experiment

2- GPU Experiment 

* The GPU experiments are performed on a single machine running on Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) with 8 core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU @ 2.00GHz; NVIDIA Tesla P4;36 GB DIMM memory; and 300 GB SSD hard drive.
* For Keras, version 2.2.4 is used and run on Tensorflow version 1.11.0. 
* For Chainer, version 4.5.0 is used. 
* For Tensorflow, version 1.11.0 is used. 
* For Pytorch, version 0.4.1 is used, For Theano, version 1.0.2 is used. 
* For MXNet, version 1.3.0 is used.
* For Chainer, MXNet and Pytorch, we used CUDA 9.2 and cuDNN 7.2.1, and for Tensorflow, Keras, and Theano, we used CUDA 10.0 and cuDNN 7.3
* It contain the GPU experiment 
* The Generated graphs 
* The logs of the experiment

3- Installation Guide 

* It contain file for each framework with the commands needed for installation 
* It's recommended to create different environmnet for each framework using conda or virtualenvs

Experiment Logging:

There exist 3 files for logging the resources during the experiment: CPU log, GPU Log, memory Log.

How to run?

1- Install the environment for each framework using the installation guide
2- Clone the project
3- For running the experiment over MNIST datset for Keras framework for example, you will find in CPU folder the source code, There is a file for each framework.
4- There is a method in the main function that is called runModel, this methods holds the name of the dataset and the number of epochs needed for this run.

Optional hyperparameters:

There are many other optional parameters with the following default values, these paramters including:
1- Learning Rate=0.01
2- momentum=0.5
3- Weight Decay=1e-6
4- batch size = 128

#Installation steps:

create a new environment with conda $ conda create -n [my-env-name] activate the environment you created $ source activate [my-env-name] install pip in the virtual environment $ conda install pip
