resnet_18

lucid.models.resnet_18(num_classes: int = 1000, **kwargs) ResNet

Overview

The resnet_18 function constructs a ResNet-18 model, a lightweight residual network suitable for image classification tasks.

It uses BasicBlock as the building block and is designed for datasets with num_classes categories.

Total Parameters: 11,689,512

Function Signature

@register_model
def resnet_18(num_classes: int = 1000, **kwargs) -> ResNet:

Parameters

  • num_classes (int, optional): Number of output classes for the classification task. Default is 1000.

  • kwargs: Additional keyword arguments to customize the model.

Returns

  • ResNet: An instance of the ResNet-18 model.

Examples

Creating a ResNet-18 model for 1000 classes:

model = resnet_18(num_classes=1000)
print(model)

Note

  • ResNet-18 uses a configuration of [2, 2, 2, 2] for its layers.

  • By default, it initializes weights internally unless specified otherwise through kwargs.
