Description

yolov3-keras-tf2 is initially an implementation of yolov3 (you only look once)(training & inference) and YoloV4 support was added(02/06/2020) which is is a state-of-the-art, real-time object detection system that is extremely fast and accurate.There are many implementations that support tensorflow, only a few that support tensorflow v2 and as I did not find versions that suit my needs so, I decided to create this version which is very flexible and customizable. It requires python 3.8+, is not platform specific and is MIT licensed which means you can use, copy, modify, distribute this software however you like.

Updates

[1.4] - 2020-11-30

  • Fix a bug that draws extra irrelevant boxes over photos for V4 configuration
  • Fix a bug that causes shape incompatibility issues
  • Remove extra required parameters image_width, image_height which are currently measured during runtime and a few others
  • Fix a bug that prevents output from saving due to path mishandling
  • Unify all IO operations to go through yolo_tf2.utils.common.get_abs_path()
  • All commands are currently supported from any working directory, so users shouldn't worry about creating folders and matching names, which is handled automatically.
  • Upgrade all dependencies to latest versions

[1.3] - 2020-10-20

  • Add command line full support for training, evaluation and detection

[1.2] - 2020-10-18

  • Add setup.py, direct installation through python3 setup.py install
  • Restructure package folders

[1.1] - 2020-06-02

  • Add yolov4 support

[1.0] - 2020-05-29

  • Models are loaded directly from DarkNet .cfg files
  • YoloV4 is currently supported(inference only, no training)
  • Mish activation function(YoloV4)

DarkNet models loaded directly from .cfg files

This feature was introduced to replace the old hard-coded model, models are currently loaded directly from DarkNet .cfg files for convenience including YoloV4 .cfg

YoloV4 support

As models currently load from .cfg files directly, YoloV4 is supported the configuration file needs to be supplied and the model is loaded, as there are technical issues encountered with the loss function, only inference using DarkNet weights for YoloV4 is currently supported. the configuration file needs to be supplied and the model is loaded and ready for usage.

tensorflow 2.3.1 & keras functional api

This program leverages features that were introduced in tensorflow 2.0 including:

  • Eager execution: an imperative programming environment that evaluates operations immediately, without building graphs check here
  • tf.function: A JIT compilation decorator that speeds up some components of the program check here
  • tf.data: API for input pipelines check here

CPU & GPU support

The program detects and uses available GPUs at runtime(training/detection) if no GPUs available, the CPU will be used(slow).

Random weights and DarkNet weights support

Both options are available, and NOTE in case of using DarkNet yolov3 weights you must maintain the same number of COCO classes (80 classes) as transfer learning to models with different classes will be supported in future versions.

csv-xml annotation parsers

There are 2 currently supported formats that the program is able to read and translate to input.

  • XML VOC format which looks like the following example:
<annotation>
	<folder>/path/to/image/folder</folder>
	<filename>image_filename.png</filename>
	<path>/path/to/image/folder/image_filename.png</path>

  • Dataset pre and post augmentation visualization with bounding boxes:

You can always visualize different stages of the program using my other repo labelpix which is tool for drawing bounding boxes, but can also be used to visualize bounding boxes over images using csv files in the format mentioned here.

tf.data input pipeline

TFRecords a simple format for storing a sequence of binary records. Protocol buffers are a cross-platform, cross-language library for efficient serialization of structured data and are used as input pipeline to store and read data efficiently the program takes as input images and their respective annotations and builds training and validation(optional) TFRecords to be further used for all operations and TFRecords are also used in the evaluation(mid/post) training, so it's valid to say you can delete images to free space after conversion to TFRecords.

pandas & numpy data handling

Most of the operations are using numpy and pandas for efficiency and vectorization.

imgaug augmentation pipeline(customizable)

Special thanks to the amazing imgaug creators, an augmentation pipeline(optional) is available and NOTE that the augmentation is conducted before the training not during the training due to technical complications to integrate tensorflow and imgaug. If you have a small dataset, augmentation is an option and it can be preconfigured before the training check Augmentor.md

logging

Different operations are recorded using logging module.

All-in-1 custom Trainer class

For custom training, Trainer class accepts configurations for augmentation, new anchor generation, new dataset(TFRecord(s)) creation, mAP evaluation mid-training and post training. So all you have to do is place images in data > photos, provide the configuration that suits you and start the training process, all operations are managed from the same place for convenience. For detailed instructions check Trainer.md

Stop and resume training support

by default the trainer checkpoints to models > checkpoint_name.tf at the end of each training epoch which enables the training to be resumed at any given point by loading the checkpoint which would be the most recent.

Fully vectorized mAP evaluation

Evaluation is optional during the training every n epochs(not recommended for large datasets as it predicts every image in the dataset) and one evaluation at the end which is optional as well. Training and validation datasets can be evaluated separately and calculate mAP(mean average precision) as well as precision and recall curves for every class in the model, check Evaluator.md

GitHub Logo

labelpix support

You can check my other repo labelpix which is a labeling tool for drawing bounding boxes over images if you need to make custom datasets the tool can help and is supported by the detector. You can use csv files in the format mentioned here as labels and load images if you need to preview any stage of the training/augmentation/evaluation/detection.

Photo & video detection

Detections can be performed on photos or videos using Detector class check Detector.md

Usage

Training

Here are the most basic steps to train using a custom dataset:

1- Create classes .txt file that contains classes delimited by \n

dog
cat
car
person
boat
fan
laptop

2- Create a training instance and specify input_shape, classes_file, and either specify image_folder=/path/to/image/folder or it would default to data > photos

from yolo_tf2.core.trainer import Trainer


trainer = Trainer(
         input_shape=(416, 416, 3),
         model_configuration='yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg',
         classes_file='/path/to/classes_file.txt',
         image_folder=/path/to/image/folder
)

3- Create dataset configuration(dict) that contains the following keys:

  • dataset_name: TFRecord prefix(required)

and one of the following:(required)

  • relative_labels: path to csv file in the following format

or

  • xml_labels_folder: Path to folder containing xml labels (defaults to data > xml_labels)
  • voc_conf: path to .json file containing VOC parsing configuration (you may use the one in yolotf2 > config or create a similar structure).

and

  • test_size: percentage of the validation split ex: 0.1(required)
  • augmentation: True (optional)

and if augmentation this implies the following:

  • sequences: (required) A list of augmentation sequences check Augmentor.md

  • aug_workers: (optional) defaults to 32 parallel augmentations.

  • aug_batch_size: (optional) this is the augmentation batch size defaults to 64 images to load at once.

    dataset_conf = {
                  'relative_labels': '/path/to/labels.csv',
                  'dataset_name': 'dataset_name',
                  'test_size': 0.2,
                  'sequences': PRESET1,  # check Config > augmentation_options.py
                  'augmentation': True,
    }
    

4- Create new anchor generation configuration(dict) that contains the following keys(optional):

  • anchor_no: number of anchors(should be 9) and one of the following:
    • relative_labels: same as dataset configuration above

    • xml_labels_folder: same as dataset configuration above

      anchors_conf = {
                      'anchor_no': 9,
                      'relative_labels':  '/path/to/labels.csv'
      }
      
    • voc_conf: should be included if xml_labels_folder is specified

5- Start the training

Note

If you're going to use DarkNet yolov3 weights, make sure the classes file contains 80 classes(COCO classes) or you'll get an error. Transfer learning to models with different number of classes will be supported in future versions of the program.

trainer.train(
         epochs=100, 
         batch_size=8, 
         learning_rate=1e-3, 
         dataset_name='dataset_name', 
         merge_evaluation=False,
         min_overlaps=0.5,
         new_dataset_conf=dataset_conf,  # check step 5
         new_anchors_conf=anchors_conf,  # check step 6
         #  weights='/path/to/weights'  # If you're using DarkNet weights or resuming training
         )

Command line equivalent:

yolotf2 train --input-shape "(416, 416, 3)" --classes "path/to/classes.txt" --model-cfg "yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg" --dataset-name "dataset_name" --relative-labels "path/to/labels.csv"  --epochs 100 --batch-size 8 --learning-rate 1e3 --merge-evaluation --min-overlaps 0.5 --test-size 0.2 --augmentation-preset PRESET1 --image-folder /path/to/image/folder

Notes

  • if you're training from outside the repo, specify --image-folder "your image folder"
  • To train on an already existing dataset, specify --train-tfrecord and --valid-tfrecord
  • You can specify to parse from xml folder directly using --xml-labels-folder if outside the repo, otherwise, you might place labels in data > xml_labels
  • You can specify weights using --weights

After the training completes:

  1. The trained model is saved in models folder(which you can use to resume training later/predict photos or videos)
  2. The resulting TFRecords and their corresponding csv data are saved in data > tfrecords
  3. The resulting figures and evaluation results are saved in output folder. And if you're training from outside the repo, the folders above will be created in the working directory(if they do not exist)

Augmentation

Here are the most basic steps to augment images(no training, just augmentation):

If you need to augment photos and take your time to examine/visualize the results, here are the steps:

1- Copy images to data > photos or specify image_folder=path_tom_image_folder

2- Ensure you have a csv file containing the labels in the format mentioned here, if you have labels in xml VOC format, you can easily convert them using utils > annotation_parsers.py parse_voc_folder()` (everything is explained in the docstrings)

3- Create augmentation instance:

from yolo_tf2.config.augmentation_options import augmentations
from yolo_tf2.core.augmentor import DataAugment


aug = DataAugment(
      labels_file='/path/to/labels/csv/file',
      augmentation_map=augmentations)
aug.create_sequences(sequences)  # check the docs
aug.augment_photo_folder()

After augmentation you'll find augmented images in the data > photos folder or the folder you specified(if you did specify one)

And you should find 2 csv files in the output folder:

  1. augmented_data_plus_original.csv : you can use this with labelpix to visualize results with bounding boxes

  2. adjusted_data_plus_original.csv

and any of the 2 csv files above can be used in the new dataset configuration in the training.

Evaluation

Here are the most basic steps to evaluate a trained model:

  1. Create an evaluation instance:

    from yolo_tf2.core.evaluator import Evaluator
    
    
    evaluator = Evaluator(
                input_shape=(416, 416, 3),
                model_configuration='yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg',
                train_tf_record='/path/to/train.tfrecord',
                valid_tf_record='/path/to/valid.tfrecord',
                classes_file='/path/to/classes.txt',
                anchors=anchors,  # defaults to yolov3 anchors
                score_threshold=0.1  # defaults to 0.5 but it's okay to be lower
                )
    
  2. Read actual and prediction results(that resulted from the training)

    actual = pd.read_csv('data/tfrecords/full_data.csv')
    preds = pd.read_csv('output/full_dataset_predictions.csv')
    
  3. Calculate mAP(mean average precision):

    evaluator.calculate_map(
               prediction_data=preds, 
               actual_data=actual, 
               min_overlaps=0.5, 
               display_stats=True)
    

Command line equivalent:

yolotf2 evaluate --input-shape "(416, 416, 3)" --model-cfg "yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg" --train-tfrecord "/path/to/train.tfrecord" --valid-tfrecord "/path/to/valid.tfrecord" --score-threshold 0.1 --predicted-data "output/full_dataset_predictions.csv" --actual-data "data/tfrecords/full_data.csv"

After evaluation, you'll find resulting plots and predictions in the output folder.

Detection

Here are the most basic steps to perform detection:

  1. Create a detection instance:

     from yolo_tf2.core.detector import Detector
     
     
     detector = Detector(
         input_shape=(416, 416, 3),
         model_configuration='/path/to/DarkNet/yolo_version.cfg,
         '/path/to/classes_file.txt',
         score_threshold=0.5,
         iou_threshold=0.5,
         max_boxes=100,
         anchors=anchors  # Optional if not specified, yolo default anchors are used
     )
    
  2. Perform detections:

A) Photos:

photos = ['photo/path1', 'photo/path2']
detector.predict_photos(photos=photos,
                 trained_weights='/path/to/trained/weights')  # .tf or yolov3.weights(80 classes)

Command line equivalent:

yolotf2 detect --input-shape "(416, 416, 3)" --classes "path/to/classes.txt" --model-cfg "yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg" --score-threshold 0.5 --iou-threshold 0.5 --image-dir "path/to/image/dir" --weights "path/to/weights"

or alternatively, if you want to perform detection on a single image specify --image instead of --image-dir

B) Video

detector.detect_video(
    '/path/to/target/vid',
    '/path/to/trained/weights.tf',
)

Command line equivalent:

yolotf2 detect --input-shape "(416, 416, 3)" --classes "path/to/classes.txt" --model-cfg "yolo_tf2/config/yolo3.cfg" --score-threshold 0.5 --iou-threshold 0.5 --video "path/to/video" --weights "path/to/weights"

After predictions is complete you'll find photos/video in output > detections
