FAST-VQA/FasterVQA

📘We are holding an unofficial copy of the LSVQ dataset on huggingface Link, which is necessary to reproduce training for FAST-VQA/FasterVQA. Please comply with the original terms of use of this dataset, as we hold no responsibilities on any non-compliant usage.

An Open Source Deep End-to-End Video Quality Assessment Toolbox,

开源的端到端视频质量评价工具箱,

& Reproducible Code for ECCV2022 Paper FAST-VQA: Efficient End-to-end Video Quality Assessment with Fragment Sampling and its extension Paper Neighbourhood Representative Sampling for Efficient End-to-end Video Quality Assessment.

暨 可复现 ECCV2022 论文 FAST-VQA: Efficient End-to-end Video Quality Assessment with Fragment Sampling 的代码。

✨ We are officially announcing FasterVQA (named FAST-VQA-B-3D during development) which expands the proposed Fragments into a 3D version, which brings 4x faster speed and similar performance. The official CVF edition of ECCV paper will also be online soon as the conference is coming.

我们正式发布了新版的FasterVQA,在效率提升4倍的情况下保持接近原始FAST-VQA的性能。

In this release, we have refactored the training and testing code. The refactored code can achieve the same performance as the original version and allow modification of (1) the backbone structures; (2) the sampling hyper-parameters; (3) loss functions.

在这一版本中,我们对训练和测试的代码进行了重构。重构后的代码可以达到与原始版本相同的性能,并允许修改网络结构/采样的超参数/损失函数。

[Upgraded] Infer for a single MP4 video

python vqa.py -m [MODEL_TYPE] -v [YOUR_INPUT_FILE_PATH]

MODEL_TYPE can be chosen in FasterVQA, FAST-VQA, and their efficient versions, FasterVQA-MS, FasterVQA-MT, FAST-VQA-M.

Outputs for default python vqa.py (inferring with FasterVQA) can be:

Inferring with model [FasterVQA]:
The quality score of the video (range [0,1]) is 0.42326.

Outputs for python vqa.py -m FAST-VQA (inferring with FAST-VQA) can be:

Inferring with model [FAST-VQA]:
The quality score of the video (range [0,1]) is 0.44953.

The result is now rescaled into between [0,1] with a sigmoid function.

Score near 0: extremely bad quality..

Score 0.25: bad quality.

Score 0.5: fair quality.

Score 0.75: good quality.

Score near 1.0: extremely good quality.

🚩 Modularized Parts Designed for Development

为开发设计的模块化架构

Data Preprocessing

数据预处理

Please view Data Processing to see the source codes for data processing. Specially, look at the FusionDataset class and the get_spatial_and_temporal_samples function for our core transformations.

Spatial Sampling

空间采样

We have supported spatial sampling approachs as follows:

  • fragments
  • resize
  • arp_resize (resize while keeping the original Aspect Ratio)
  • crop

We also support the combination of those sampling approaches (multi-branch networks) for more flexibility.

Temporal Sampling (New)

时域采样(新)

We also support different temporal sampling approaches:

  • SampleFrames (sample continuous frames, imported from MMAction2)
  • FragmentSampleFrames (:sparkles: New, sample fragment-like discontinuous frames)

Network Structures

网络结构

Network Backbones

骨干网络

  • Video Swin Transformer (with GRPB, as proposed in FAST-VQA)
  • Video Swin Transformer (vanilla)
  • ConvNext-I3D (vanilla)

Network Heads

IP-NLR head can generate local quality maps for videos.

Installation

安装

Dependencies

依赖

The original library is build with

  • python=3.8.8
  • torch=1.10.2
  • torchvision=0.11.3

while using decord module to read original videos (so that you don't need to make any transform on your original .mp4 input).

To get all the requirements, please run

pip install -r requirements.txt

Direct Install

直接安装

You can run

git clone htps://github.com/QualityAssessment/FAST-VQA-and-FasterVQA.git
cd FAST-VQA-and-FasterVQA
pip install -e .

to install the full FAST-VQA with its requirements. The -e option allows you to import your customized version of the package.
