Evaluation (for CULane)

To test on CULane, you need to install official CULane evaluation tools. The official metric implementation is available here. Please downloads the tools into ROOT/Modeling/culane/code/evaluation/culane/. The tools require OpenCV C++. Please follow here to install OpenCV C++. Then, you compile the evaluation tools. We recommend to see an installation guideline

$ cd ROOT/Modeling/culane/code/evaluation/culane/
$ make

Train

1. Set the dataset you want to train (DATASET_NAME)
2. Parse your dataset path into the -dataset_dir argument.
3. Edit config.py if you want to control the training process in detail

$ cd ROOT/Modeling/DATASET_NAME/code/
$ python main.py --run_mode train --pre_dir ROOT/preprocessed/DATASET_NAME/ --dataset_dir /where/is/your/dataset/path/ 

Test

1. Set the dataset you want to test (DATASET_NAME)
2. Parse your dataset path into the -dataset_dir argument.
3. If you want to get the performances of our work,

$ cd ROOT/Modeling/DATASET_NAME/code/
$ python main.py --run_mode test_paper --pre_dir ROOT/preprocessed/DATASET_NAME/ --paper_weight_dir ROOT/pretrained/DATASET_NAME/ --dataset_dir /where/is/your/dataset/path/

4. If you want to evaluate a model you trained,

$ cd ROOT/Modeling/DATASET_NAME/code/
$ python main.py --run_mode test --pre_dir ROOT/preprocessed/DATASET_NAME/ --dataset_dir /where/is/your/dataset/path/

Preprocessing

Data preprocessing is divided into five steps, which are P00, P01, P02, P03, and P04. Below we describe each step in detail.

1. In P00, the type of ground-truth lanes in a dataset is converted to pickle format.
2. In P01, each lane in a training set is represented by 2D points sampled uniformly in the vertical direction.
3. In P02, lane matrix is constructed and SVD is performed. Then, each lane is transformed to its coefficient vector.
4. In P03, clustering is performed to obtain lane candidates.
5. In P04, training labels are generated to train the SI module in the proposed SIIC-Net.

If you want to get the preproessed data, please run the preprocessing codes in order. Also, you can download the preprocessed data.

$ cd ROOT/Preprocessing/DATASET_NAME/PXX_each_preprocessing_step/code/
$ python main.py --dataset_dir /where/is/your/dataset/path/
