Read state_dict in my submission

[yankeesong]

I trained a neural network for classification. When classifiying test images, I need to load the state_dict of my net and then do the classification. However, the state_dict is too large (200MB) to be pushed in my gitlab repo, so I cannot load that for my submission. Could anyone help me with this?

Hi,

in this case you have to use Git LFS (https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/git/lfs/).

Please let me know uf you manage to upload it.

Hi @yankeesong,

As @picekl mentioned, git-lfs is the way to go.
You can also refer to below link for trimmed down example for uploading models.

How to upload large files (size) to your submission

We limit the individual file size to 50M in Gitlab repositories. In case, you are trying to upload a larger file like trained models, etc the git push will fail with following error: remote: fatal: pack exceeds maximum allowed size error: remote unpack failed: index-pack abnormal exit If this is the case, you will have to use git-lfs for larger files. We recommend using git-lfs-migrate to migrate existing larger files into git-lfs. Links: Tutorial on why and how to use git-lfs How to migrat…

In case you have any follow up question do let us know.
