Primary LanguagePythonMIT LicenseMIT

Grad-CAM with PyTorch

PyTorch implementation of Grad-CAM (Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping) [1] in image classification. This repository also contains implementations of vanilla backpropagation, guided backpropagation [2], deconvnet [2], and guided Grad-CAM [1], occlusion sensitivity maps [3].

Requirements

Python 2.7 / 3.+

$ pip install click opencv-python matplotlib tqdm numpy
$ pip install "torch>=0.4.1" torchvision

Basic usage

python main.py [DEMO_ID] [OPTIONS]

Demo ID:

Options:

  • -i, --image-paths: image path, which can be provided multiple times (required)
  • -a, --arch: a model name from torchvision.models, e.g. "resnet152" (required)
  • -t, --target-layer: a module name to be visualized, e.g. "layer4.2" (required)
  • -k, --topk: the number of classes to generate (default: 3)
  • -o, --output-dir: a directory to store results (default: ./results)
  • --cuda/--cpu: GPU or CPU

The command above generates, for top k classes:

  • Gradients by vanilla backpropagation
  • Gradients by guided backpropagation [2]
  • Gradients by deconvnet [2]
  • Grad-CAM [1]
  • Guided Grad-CAM [1]

The guided-* do not support F.relu but only nn.ReLU in this codes. For instance, off-the-shelf inception_v3 cannot cut off negative gradients during backward operation (issue #2).

Demo 1

Generate all kinds of visualization maps given a torchvision model, a target layer, and images.

python main.py demo1 -a resnet152 -t layer4 \
                     -i samples/cat_dog.png -i samples/vegetables.jpg # You can add more images
Predicted class #1 boxer #2 bull mastiff #3 tiger cat
Grad-CAM [1]
Vanilla backpropagation
"Deconvnet" [2]
Guided backpropagation [2]
Guided Grad-CAM [1]

Grad-CAM with different models for "bull mastiff" class

Demo 2

Generate Grad-CAM maps for "bull mastiff" class, at different layers of ResNet-152 (hardcoded).

python main.py demo2 -i samples/cat_dog.png

Demo 3

Generate the occlusion sensitivity map [1, 3] based on logit scores. The red and blue regions indicate a relative increase and decrease from non-occluded scores respectively: the blue regions are critical!

python main.py demo3 -a resnet152 -i samples/cat_dog.png
Patch size 10x10 15x15 25x25 35x35 45x45 90x90
"boxer" sensitivity
"bull mastiff" sensitivity
"tiger cat" sensitivity

This demo takes much time to compute per-pixel logits. You can control the resolution by changing sampling stride (--stride), or increasing batch size as to fit on your GPUs (--n-batches). The model is wrapped with torch.nn.DataParallel so that runs on multiple GPUs by default.
