I am training MobileNet_v1_1.0_224 using TensorFlow. I am using the python scripts present in the TensorFlow-Slim image classification model library for training. My dataset distribution with 4 classes is as follows:
normal_faces: 42070
oncall_faces: 13563 (People faces with mobile in the image when they're on call)
smoking_faces: 5949
yawning_faces: 1630
All images in the dataset are square images and larger than 224x224
I am using train_image_classifier.py to train the model with following arguments,
python train_image_classifier.py \
--train_dir=${TRAIN_DIR} \
--dataset_name=custom \
--dataset_split_name=train \
--dataset_dir=${DATASET_DIR} \
--model_name=mobilenet_v1 \
--batch_size=32\
--max_number_of_steps=25000
After training the model, eval_image_classifier.py shows an accuracy greater than 95% on Validation set but when I exported the frozen graph and used it for predictions, it performs very poorly.
I have also tried this notebook but this also produced similar results.
Log: Training Log
Plots: Loss and Accuracy
What is the reason for this? How do I fix this issue?
I have seen similar issues on SO but nothing related to MobileNets specifically.
