OpenSTL: A Comprehensive Benchmark of Spatio-Temporal Predictive Learning

📘Documentation | 🛠️Installation | 🚀Model Zoo | 🤗Huggingface | 👀Visualization | 🆕News

Introduction

OpenSTL is a comprehensive benchmark for spatio-temporal predictive learning, encompassing a broad spectrum of methods and diverse tasks, ranging from synthetic moving object trajectories to real-world scenarios such as human motion, driving scenes, traffic flow, and weather forecasting. OpenSTL offers a modular and extensible framework, excelling in user-friendliness, organization, and comprehensiveness. The codebase is organized into three abstracted layers, namely the core layer, algorithm layer, and user interface layer, arranged from the bottom to the top. We support PyTorch Lightning implementation OpenSTL-Lightning (recommended) and naive PyTorch version OpenSTL.

Overview

Major Features and Plans

  • Flexiable Code Design. OpenSTL decomposes STL algorithms into methods (training and prediction), models (network architectures), and modules, while providing unified experiment API. Users can develop their own STL algorithms with flexible training strategies and networks for different STL tasks.

  • Standard Benchmarks. OpenSTL will support standard benchmarks of STL algorithms image with training and evaluation as many open-source projects (e.g., MMDetection and USB). We are working on training benchmarks and will update results synchronizingly.

  • Plans. We plan to provide benchmarks of various STL methods and MetaFormer architectures based on SimVP in various STL application tasks, e.g., video prediction, weather prediction, traffic prediction, etc. We encourage researchers interested in STL to contribute to OpenSTL or provide valuable advice!

Code Structures
  • openstl/api contains an experiment runner.
  • openstl/core contains core training plugins and metrics.
  • openstl/datasets contains datasets and dataloaders.
  • openstl/methods/ contains training methods for various video prediction methods.
  • openstl/models/ contains the main network architectures of various video prediction methods.
  • openstl/modules/ contains network modules and layers.
  • tools/ contains the executable python files tools/train.py and tools/test.py with possible arguments for training, validating, and testing pipelines.
