BBS-Net: RGB-D Salient Object Detection with a Bifurcated Backbone Strategy Network

Figure 1: Pipeline of the BBS-Net.

1. Requirements

Python 3.7, Pytorch 0.4.0+, Cuda 10.0, TensorboardX 2.0, opencv-python

2. Data Preparation

Download the raw data from Baidu Pan [code: yiy1] or Google Drive and trained model (BBSNet.pth) from Here [code: dwcp]. Then put them under the following directory:
```
 -BBS_dataset\ 
   -RGBD_for_train\  
   -RGBD_for_test\
   -test_in_train\
 -BBSNet
   -models\
   -model_pths\
      -BBSNet.pth
   ...
```
Note that the depth maps of the raw data above are not normalized. If you train and test using the normalized depth maps, the performance will be improved.

3. Training & Testing

Train the BBSNet:

python BBSNet_train.py --batchsize 10 --gpu_id 0
Test the BBSNet:

python BBSNet_test.py --gpu_id 0

The test maps will be saved to './test_maps/'.
Evaluate the result maps:

You can evaluate the result maps using the tool in Python_GPU Version or Matlab Version.
If you need the codes using VGG16 and VGG19 backbones, please send to the email (zhaiyingjier@163.com). Please provide your Name & Institution. Please note the code can be only used for research purpose.
