DomainBed is a suite to test domain generalization algorithms
Role in this project:
ML Engineer
Contributions:16 commits, 5 PRs, 11 pushes in 10 months
Contributions summary:Ishaan contributed to the domain generalization suite by fixing bugs related to the training process, specifically the epoch reporting in the `train.py` script and correcting data loader implementations. They also introduced a new hyperparameter registry for the project, improved memory usage for specific algorithms like IGA, ANDMask, and SANDMask. Furthermore, they added a feature to save model weights at every checkpoint and implemented an experimental multi-GPU launcher.
