IEEE TIP 2021: Regularized Densely-connected Pyramid Network for Salient Instance Segmentation

PyTorch training and testing code are available. We have achieved SOTA performance on the salient instance segmentation (SIS) task.

If you run into any problems or feel any difficulties to run this code, do not hesitate to leave issues in this repository.

[Official Ver.] [PDF]

🔥 News! We have added pretrained models on the newly released COME15K dataset and corresponding results on its test set. Pretrained model dowloading url: ResNet-50 (COME15K dataset), [Google Drive, 137MB], [Baidu Yun, iz2c]

Requirements

  • PyTorch 1.1/1.0.1, Torchvision 0.2.2.post3, CUDA 9.0/10.0/10.1, apex
  • Validated on Ubuntu 16.04/18.04, PyTorch 1.1/1.0.1, CUDA 9.0/10.0/10.1, NVIDIA TITAN Xp

Installing

Please check INSTALL.md.

Note: we have provided an early tested apex version (url: here) and place it in our root folder (./apex/). You can also try other apex versions, which are not tested by us.

Data

Before training/testing our network, please download the data:

Note: if you are blocked by Google and Baidu services, you can contact me via e-mail and I will send you a copy of data and model weights.

We have processed the data to json format so you can use them without any preprocessing steps. After completion of downloading, extract the data and put them to ./datasets/ folder. Then, the ./datasets/ folder should contain two folders: isod/, soc/, COME15K/.

Train

It is very simple to train our network. We have prepared a script to run the training step. You can at first train our ResNet-50-based network on the ISOD dataset:

cd scripts
bash ./train_isod.sh

The training step should cost less than 1 hour for single GTX 1080Ti or TITAN Xp. This script will also store the network code, config file, log, and model weights.

We also provide ResNet-101 and ResNeXt-101 training scripts, and they are all in the scripts folder.

The default training code is for single gpu training since the training time is very low. You can also try multi gpus training by replacing --nproc_per_node=1 \ with --nproc_per_node=2 \ for 2-gpu training.

Test / Evaluation / Results

It is also very simple to test our network. First you need to download the model weights:

Taking the test on the ISOD dataset for example:

  1. Download the ISOD trained model weights, put it to model_zoo/ folder.
  2. cd the scripts folder, then run bash test_isod.sh.
  3. Testing step usually costs less than a minute. We use the official cocoapi for evaluation.

🔥 For the COME-E set of the COME15K dataset, we achieve 43.1% AP and 67.3% AP@0.5 trained on the COME15K training set. You can simply reproduce the result given the training config configs/r50-come.yaml.

Note1: We strongly recommend to use cocoapi to evaluate the performance. Such evaluation is also automatically done with the testing process.

Note2: Default cocoapi evaluation outputs AP, AP50, AP75 peformance. To output the score of AP70, you need to change the cocoeval.py in cocoapi. See changes in this commitment:

BEFORE: stats[2] = _summarize(1, iouThr=.75, maxDets=self.params.maxDets[2])
AFTER:  stats[2] = _summarize(1, iouThr=.70, maxDets=self.params.maxDets[2])

Note3: If you are not familiar with the evalutation metric AP, AP50, AP75, you can refer to the introduction website here. Our official paper also introduces them in the Experiments section.

Visualize

We provide a simple python script to visualize the result: demo/visualize.py.

  1. Be sure that you have downloaded the ISOD pretrained weights [Google Drive, 0.14G].
  2. Put images to the demo/examples/ folder. I have prepared some images in this paper so do not worry that you have no images.
  3. cd demo, run python visualize.py
  4. Visualized images are generated in the same folder. You can change the target folder in visualize.py.

TODO

  1. Release the weights for real-world applications
  2. Add Jittor implementation
  3. Train with the enhanced base detector (FCOS TPAMI version) for better performance. Currently the base detector is the FCOS conference version with a bit lower performance.
  4. Add results with the P2T transformer backbone.
