Supplementary materials for preprint submitted to Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence.

Instalation

Please run

conda env create -f dresnet.yml

to create the conda environmnet with required packages.

Then run:

git submodule init/update

and link deeply-recursive-cnn-tf as deeply_recursive_cnn_tf using

ln -s deeply-recursive-cnn-tf deeply_recursive_cnn_tf

Training

Training scripts are not currently available, please contact authors for assistance.

Inference

Current code supports inference using the provided DRESNet checkpoint trained on the collected thermal facial dataset using scale 2.

To run inference, use:

python test.py --model_name ckpts/ckpt_scale2/model_F96_D9_R3 --test_dir testing_images/

Dataset

Due to privacy concerns dataset is not currently available, but please note that we are doing our best to provide it soon.

Thank you note

We'd like to thank authors of https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.04491 because DRESNet was created as an enhancement of their SR model DRCN and adapted specifically for thermal images.
