 The [Tiny-Imagenet][6] dataset was used and the 200 odd classses were split into 4 tasks with 50 classes being assigned to each task randomly. This division can also be arbitrary and no speciaal consideration has been given to the decision to split the dataset evenly. Each of these tasks has a "train" and a "test" folder to validate the performance on these wide ranging tasks.
 
+The purpose behind using the MNIST dataset was to introduce some tasks that were significantly different to the ones in the Tiny Imagenet dataset. This is an attempt to recreate the setting of the original paper on a lower scale

 Training

+Training procedure is really volatile, and these were the boundaries that I could find. I did not carry out an extensive search over the optimum number of epochs and these boundaries were obtained from initial tests. For this range, the loss function **atleast returned a numerical value**, however even in this case, if the model gets stuck in a bad optimum, the loss function starts giving out NaN values and this snowballs into the model not learning at all.

+Results
+--------------------------------------
+
+My system could not handle all the number of tasks in this sequence (9 in all) and it frequently froze up before completion. The test_models module is `O(number_of_tasks X number_of_tasks X sizeof(task))`. This is necessary since for each task we need to search over all the autoencoders created for the best performing model and activate the corresponding trained_model over which the final epoch_accuracy is calculated. Due to this, I manually cut the number of classes in each of the TIN dataset to 25 and used only one of the task from the MNIST dataset. It is quite clear from the architecture proposed in this paper that this is not optimum. 
+
+**Another key caveat** is that in all these trained models that are derived from the Alexnet architecture, only the last two convolutional layers and the classification layers are being trained. The rest of the layers are frozen and hence are not trained and the results are reported for this setting
+
+The present `test_models.py` is written assuming that your system can handle all the tasks in the full seqeunce. Please make the necessary changes to make the testing procedure compatible with your compuatational requirements. 
+
+The results reported are for this particular setting [Number of epochs used for training: 15]:
+
+**Input_Task_Number**: The task that was fed to the model\
+**Model_activated**: The model that was identifed for this task. The correct model was identified in these cases\
+**Accuracy**: Has been rounded to the nearest two decimals [number of right labels identfied]
+

+Final Takeaways
+--------------------------------
+The ideas proposed in this model; loads only the required model into memory at inference. However it is a really expensive procedure to search over all the autoencoders to identify the correct model and this situation will only get worse with an increasing number of tasks. Clearly this would not scale to much longer sequences. It is also not clear how the authors stabilized the training procedure for the **"Learning without Forgetting"** approach.

+To-Do's for this Project

+-[ ] Figure out ways to stablize the training procedure, have isolated the problem to the distillation loss calculation
