Generate images with IC-GAN in a Colab Notebook

We provide a Google Colab notebook to generate images with IC-GAN and its class-conditional counter part.

The figure below depicts two instances, unseen during training and downloaded from Creative Commons search, and the generated images with IC-GAN and class-conditional IC-GAN when conditioning on the class "castle":

Additionally, and inspired by this Colab, we provide the funcionality in the same Colab notebook to guide generations with text captions, using the CLIP model. As an example, the following Figure shows three instance conditionings and a text caption (top), followed by the resulting generated images with IC-GAN (bottom), when optimizing the noise vector following CLIP's gradient for 100 iterations.

Credit for the three instance conditionings, from left to right, that were modified with a resize and central crop: 1: "Landscape in Bavaria" by shining.darkness, licensed under CC BY 2.0, 2: "Fantasy Landscape - slolsss" by Douglas Tofoli is marked with CC PDM 1.0, 3: "How to Draw Landscapes Simply" by Kuwagata Keisai is marked with CC0 1.0

Requirements

  • Python 3.8
  • Cuda v10.2 / Cudnn v7.6.5
  • gcc v7.3.0

Overview

This repository consists of four main folders:

  • data_utils: A common folder to obtain and format the data needed to train and test IC-GAN, agnostic of the specific backbone.
  • inference: Scripts to test the models both qualitatively and quantitatively.
  • BigGAN_PyTorch: It provides the training, evaluation and sampling scripts for IC-GAN with a BigGAN backbone. The code base comes from Pytorch BigGAN repository, made available under the MIT License. It has been modified to add additional utilities and it enables IC-GAN training on top of it.
  • stylegan2_ada_pytorch: It provides the training, evaluation and sampling scripts for IC-GAN with a StyleGAN2 backbone. The code base comes from StyleGAN2 Pytorch, made available under the Nvidia Source Code License. It has been modified to add additional utilities and it enables IC-GAN training on top of it.

(Python script) Generate images with IC-GAN

Alternatively, we can generate images with IC-GAN models directly from a python script, by following the next steps:

  1. Download the desired pretrained models (links below) and the pre-computed 1000 instance features from ImageNet and extract them into a folder pretrained_models_path.

  1. Execute:
python inference/generate_images.py --root_path [pretrained_models_path] --model [model] --model_backbone [backbone] --resolution [res]
  • model can be chosen from ["icgan", "cc_icgan"] to use the IC-GAN or the class-conditional IC-GAN model respectively.
  • backbone can be chosen from ["biggan", "stylegan2"].
  • res indicates the resolution at which the model has been trained. For ImageNet, choose one in [64, 128, 256], and for COCO-Stuff, one in [128, 256].

This script results in a .PNG file where several generated images are shown, given an instance feature (each row), and a sampled noise vector (each grid position).

Additional and optional parameters:

  • index: (None by default), is an integer from 0 to 999 that choses a specific instance feature vector out of the 1000 instances that have been selected with k-means on the ImageNet dataset and stored in pretrained_models_path/stored_instances.
  • swap_target: (None by default) is an integer from 0 to 999 indicating an ImageNet class label. This label will be used to condition the class-conditional IC-GAN, regardless of which instance features are being used.
  • which_dataset: (ImageNet by default) can be chosen from ["imagenet", "coco"] to indicate which dataset (training split) to sample the instances from.
  • trained_dataset: (ImageNet by default) can be chosen from ["imagenet", "coco"] to indicate the dataset in which the IC-GAN model has been trained on.
  • num_imgs_gen: (5 by default), it changes the number of noise vectors to sample per conditioning. Increasing this number results in a bigger .PNG file to save and load.
  • num_conditionings_gen: (5 by default), it changes the number of conditionings to sample. Increasing this number results in a bigger .PNG file to save and load.
  • z_var: (1.0 by default) controls the truncation factor for the generation.
  • Optionally, the script can be run with the following additional options --visualize_instance_images --dataset_path [dataset_path] to visualize the ground-truth images corresponding to the conditioning instance features, given a path to the dataset's ground-truth images dataset_path. Ground-truth instances will be plotted as the leftmost image for each row.

How to subsample an instance feature dataset with k-means
To downsample the instance feature vector dataset, after we have prepared the data, we can use the k-means algorithm: python data_utils/store_kmeans_indexes.py --resolution [resolution] --which_dataset [dataset_name] --data_root [data_path]
  • Adding --gpu allows the faiss library to compute k-means leveraging GPUs, resulting in faster execution.
  • Adding the parameter --feature_extractor [feature_extractor] chooses which feature extractor to use, with feature_extractor in ['selfsupervised', 'classification'] , if we are using swAV as feature extactor or the ResNet pretrained on the classification task on ImageNet, respectively.
  • The number of k-means clusters can be set with --kmeans_subsampled [centers], where centers is an integer.

How to train the models

BigGAN or StyleGAN2 backbone

Training parameters are stored in JSON files in [backbone_folder]/config_files/[dataset]/*.json, where [backbone_folder] is either BigGAN_Pytorch or stylegan2_ada_pytorch and [dataset] can either be ImageNet, ImageNet-LT or COCO_Stuff.

cd BigGAN_PyTorch
python run.py --json_config config_files/<dataset>/<selected_config>.json --data_root [data_root] --base_root [base_root]

or

cd stylegan_ada_pytorch
python run.py --json_config config_files/<dataset>/<selected_config>.json --data_root [data_root] --base_root [base_root]

where:

  • data_root path where the data has been prepared and stored, following the previous section (Data preparation).
  • base_root path where to store the model weights and logs.

Note that one can create other JSON files to modify the training parameters.

Other backbones

To be able to run IC-GAN with other backbones, we provide some orientative steps:

  • Place the new backbone code in a new folder under ic_gan (ic_gan/new_backbone).
  • Modify the relevant piece of code in the GAN architecture to allow instance features as conditionings (for both generator and discriminator).
  • Create a trainer.py file with the training loop to train an IC-GAN with the new backbone. The data_utils folder provides the tools to prepare the dataset, load the data and conditioning sampling to train an IC-GAN. The IC-GAN with BigGAN backbone trainer.py file can be used as an inspiration.

How to test the models

To obtain the FID and IS metrics on ImageNet and ImageNet-LT:

  1. Execute:
python inference/test.py --json_config [BigGAN-PyTorch or stylegan-ada-pytorch]/config_files/<dataset>/<selected_config>.json --num_inception_images [num_imgs] --sample_num_npz [num_imgs] --eval_reference_set [ref_set] --sample_npz --base_root [base_root] --data_root [data_root] --kmeans_subsampled [kmeans_centers] --model_backbone [backbone]

To obtain the tensorflow IS and FID metrics, use an environment with the Python <3.7 and Tensorflow 1.15. Then:

  1. Obtain Inception Scores and pre-computed FID moments:
python ../data_utils/inception_tf13.py --experiment_name [exp_name] --experiment_root [base_root] --kmeans_subsampled [kmeans_centers]

For stratified FIDs in the ImageNet-LT dataset, the following parameters can be added --which_dataset 'imagenet_lt' --split 'val' --strat_name [stratified_split], where stratified_split can be in [few,low, many].

  1. (Only needed once) Pre-compute reference moments with tensorflow code:
python ../data_utils/inception_tf13.py --use_ground_truth_data --data_root [data_root] --split [ref_set] --resolution [res] --which_dataset [dataset]
  1. (Using this repository) FID can be computed using the pre-computed statistics obtained in 2) and the pre-computed ground-truth statistics obtain in 3). For example, to compute the FID with reference ImageNet validation set: python TTUR/fid.py [base_root]/[exp_name]/TF_pool_.npz [data_root]/imagenet_val_res[res]_tf_inception_moments_ground_truth.npz

To obtain the FID metric on COCO-Stuff:

  1. Obtain ground-truth jpeg images: python data_utils/store_coco_jpeg_images.py --resolution [res] --split [ref_set] --data_root [data_root] --out_path [gt_coco_images] --filter_hd [filter_hd]
  2. Store generated images as jpeg images: python sample.py --json_config ../[BigGAN-PyTorch or stylegan-ada-pytorch]/config_files/<dataset>/<selected_config>.json --data_root [data_root] --base_root [base_root] --sample_num_npz [num_imgs] --which_dataset 'coco' --eval_instance_set [ref_set] --eval_reference_set [ref_set] --filter_hd [filter_hd] --model_backbone [backbone]
  3. Using this repository, compute FID on the two folders of ground-truth and generated images.

where:

  • dataset: option to select the dataset in `['imagenet', 'imagenet_lt', 'coco']
  • exp_name: name of the experiment folder.
  • data_root: path where the data has been prepared and stored, following the previous section "Data preparation".
  • base_root: path where to find the model (for example, where the pretrained models have been downloaded).
  • num_imgs: needs to be set to 50000 for ImageNet and ImageNet-LT (with validation set as reference) and set to 11500 for ImageNet-LT (with training set as reference). For COCO-Stuff, set to 75777, 2050, 675, 1375 if using the training, evaluation, evaluation seen or evaluation unseen set as reference.
  • ref_set: set to 'val' for ImageNet, ImageNet-LT (and COCO) to obtain metrics with the validation (evaluation) set as reference, or set to 'train' for ImageNet-LT or COCO to obtain metrics with the training set as reference.
  • kmeans_centers: set to 1000 for ImageNet and to -1 for ImageNet-LT.
  • backbone: model backbone architecture in ['biggan','stylegan2'].
  • res: integer indicating the resolution of the images (64,128,256).
  • gt_coco_images: folder to store the ground-truth JPEG images of that specific split.
  • filter_hd: only valid for ref_set=val. If -1, use the entire evaluation set; if 0, use only conditionings and their ground-truth images with seen class combinations during training (eval seen); if 1, use only conditionings and their ground-truth images with unseen class combinations during training (eval unseen).

Utilities for GAN backbones

We change and provide extra utilities to facilitate the training, for both BigGAN and StyleGAN2 base repositories.

BigGAN change log

The following changes were made:

  • BigGAN architecture:

    • In train_fns.py: option to either have the optimizers inside the generator and discriminator class, or directly in the G_D wrapper module. Additionally, added an option to augment both generated and real images with augmentations from DiffAugment.
    • In BigGAN.py: added a function get_condition_embeddings to handle the conditioning separately.
    • Small modifications to layers.py to adapt the batchnorm function calls to the pytorch 1.8 version.

  • Training utilities:

    • Added trainer.py file (replacing train.py):
      • Training now allows the usage of DDP for faster single-node and multi-node training.
      • Training is performed by epochs instead of by iterations.
      • Option to stop the training by using early stopping or when experiments diverge.
    • In utils.py:
      • Replaced MultiEpochSampler for CheckpointedSampler to allow experiments to be resumable when using epochs and fixing a bug where MultiEpochSampler would require a long time to fetch data permutations when the number of epochs increased.
      • ImageNet-LT: Added option to use different class distributions when sampling a class label for the generator.
      • ImageNet-LT: Added class balancing (uniform and temperature annealed).
      • Added data augmentations from DiffAugment.

  • Testing utilities:

    • In calculate_inception_moments.py: added option to obtain moments for ImageNet-LT dataset, as well as stratified moments for many, medium and few-shot classes (stratified FID computation).
    • In inception_utils.py: added option to compute Precision, Recall, Density, Coverage and stratified FID.

  • Data utilities:

    • In datasets.py, added option to load ImageNet-LT dataset.
    • Added ImageNet-LT.txt files with image indexes for training and validation split.
    • In utils.py:
      • Separate functions to obtain the data from hdf5 files (get_dataset_hdf5) or from directory (get_dataset_images), as well as a function to obtain only the data loader (get_dataloader).
      • Added the function sample_conditionings to handle possible different conditionings to train G with.

  • Experiment utilities:

    • Added JSON files to launch experiments with the proposed hyper-parameter configuration.
    • Script to launch experiments with either the submitit tool or locally in the same machine (run.py).

StyleGAN2 change log

  • Multi-node DistributedDataParallel training.
  • Added early stopping based on the training FID metric.
  • Automatic checkpointing when jobs are automatically rescheduled on a cluster.
  • Option to load dataset from hdf5 file.
  • Replaced the usage of Click python package by an `ArgumentParser`.
  • Only saving best and last model weights.
