About Val

[celiazzx]

Hi, did you do the verification. If so how was the validation set organized

Hi, you can refer to this issue.

It seems that your training process does not do validation. When I run val_ss.py I get an error: 'Error in WIDERDetectionTransfer: XXX not found', I think I should also need a SRC_VAL_FILE, which corresponds to wider original and wider add noise respectively

Yes, I split training and validation for convenience. I first save many checkpoints (each 2500 iteration) and then do validation to find the best one.

When I run val_ss.py I get an error: 'Error in WIDERDetectionTransfer: XXX not found', I think I should also need a SRC_VAL_FILE, which corresponds to wider original and wider add noise respectively

It indeed needs WIDER FACE validation set with noise. I will try to fix this problem and upload the WIDER FACE validation set as soon as possible. You can also create this set using released models following ./train_noise_synthesis or use SRC_TRAIN_FILE to replace SRC_VAL_FILE in val_loader_ss_consrc.
