Hello,
in an eMail, I was once asked to openly present my questions so I'll do it here.
It is, however, more related to using PetaVision, rather than improving it, I'm afraid.
For a student project I slightly modified your LCACifar params file (from the tutorial) and successfully got the desired results for 4 different conditions.
The computer with a Quattro K6000 had to be handed over to someone else before I could check whether my fourth condition was trained sufficiently and as it turns out now, it wasn't.
For the last remaining steps I've got a GTX 750 Ti.
However, I have problems loading from a Checkpoint.
As you'll see in the stereoV1-P2.log.txt it stops working before it writes anything (before the first 1000 steps are done). But I don't really understand the error message in there.
The command I use to run the Network is run_sparsity.sh.txt the params file isstereoLCA_V1.params.txt.
Here is the log file of the first time I ran that setup (with the K6000): stereoV1.log.txt. The parameters were the same except for the amount of iterations and the initial write time.
Personally I believe that I just show myself incapable of making PV do what it can, rather than facing actual issues within PetaVision.
I want to point out that the way several checkpoints are give to mpirun was not intuitive for me and the only explanation of how to do that was given in the log file after it aborted. Maybe adding a "(separated with a colon)" to the appropriate section in the tutorial would be an option.
I'll just thank you all in advance for reading this,
Thede
