How to disable mutual exclusivity?

[qinghezeng]

Thank you so much for your detailed explanation!!

Hi, yes, it's would not be enabled as long as you don't use --subtyping.

Thank you for your answer!
There is one more thing confusing me. For sub-typing problem, for example, in main.py line 174:

    if args.model_type == 'clam':
        assert args.subtyping

Does it mean the --subtyping flag must be used? However, in line 95:

parser.add_argument('--model_type', type=str, choices=['clam_sb', 'clam_mb', 'mil'], default='clam_sb', 
                    help='type of model (default: clam_sb, clam w/ single attention branch)')

We can see 'clam' option is not accepted for --model_type. So why do we need this?

Hi, sorry for the confusion, first of all: the assertion statement is just for my own book-keeping i.e. i wanted to use subtyping for that specific task I defined and wanted to make sure that when I was training with that task, i would not forget to enable it. So no, you do not have to use the subtyping flag for any specific task depending on your needs. second of all: 'clam' is just something i forgot to update in the code ('clam_sb' and 'clam_mb' used to be a single option called 'clam') - i will correct that shortly, thanks for pointing out.
