The code references SSD: Single Shot MultiBox Object Detector, in PyTorch, mmdet and JavierHuang. Currently, some experiments are carried out on the VOC dataset, if you want to train your own dataset, more details can be refer to the links above.

Losses

Losses can be chosen with the losstype option in the config/config.py file The valid options are currently: [Iou|Giou|Diou|Ciou|SmoothL1].

VOC:
  'losstype': 'Ciou'

Environment

  • pytorch 0.4.1
  • python3+
  • visdom
    • for real-time loss visualization during training!
     pip install visdom
    • Start the server (probably in a screen or tmux)
     python visdom
    • Then (during training) navigate to http://localhost:8097/ (see the Train section below for training details).

Datasets

  • PASCAL VOC:Download VOC2007, VOC2012 dataset, then put VOCdevkit in the data directory

Training

Training VOC

python tools/train.py
  • Note:
    • For training, default NVIDIA GPU.
    • You can set the parameters in the train.py (see 'tools/train.py` for options)
    • In the config,you can set the work_dir to save your training weight.(see 'configs/config.py`)

Evaluation

  • To evaluate a trained network:
python tools/ap.py --trained_model {your_weight_address}

For example: (the output is AP50, AP75 and AP of our CIoU loss)

Test

  • To test a trained network:
python test.py -- trained_model {your_weight_address}

if you want to visual the box, you can add the command --visbox True(default False)

Performance

VOC2007 Test mAP

  • Backbone is ResNet50-FPN:
Test AP AP75
IoU 51.0 54.7
GIoU 51.1 55.4
DIoU 51.3 55.7
CIoU 51.5 56.4
CIoU 16 53.3 58.2
"16" means bbox regression weight is set to 16.

Cluster-NMS

See Detect function of utils/detection/detection.py for our Cluster-NMS implementation.

Currently, NMS only surports cluster_nms, cluster_diounms, cluster_weighted_nms, cluster_weighted_diounms. (See 'nms_kind' in config/config.py)

Note:

  • Here the box coordinate weighted average is only performed in IoU> 0.8. We searched that IoU > NMS thresh is not good for SSD and IoU>0.9 is almost same to Cluster-NMS. (Refer to CAD for the details of Weighted-NMS.)

  • We further incorporate DIoU into Weighted Cluster-NMS for SSD which can get higher AP.

  • Note that Torchvision NMS has the fastest speed, that is owing to CUDA implementation and engineering accelerations (like upper triangular IoU matrix only). However, our Cluster-NMS requires less iterations for NMS and can also be further accelerated by adopting engineering tricks.

  • Currently, Torchvision NMS use IoU as criterion, not DIoU. However, if we directly replace IoU with DIoU in Original NMS, it will costs much more time due to the sequence operation. Now, Cluster-DIoU-NMS will significantly speed up DIoU-NMS and obtain exactly the same result.

  • Torchvision NMS is a function in Torchvision>=0.3, and our Cluster-NMS can be applied to any projects that use low version of Torchvision and other deep learning frameworks as long as it can do matrix operations. No other import, no need to compile, less iteration, fully GPU-accelerated and better performance.
