This package provides support for computing the 2D discrete wavelet and the 2d dual-tree complex wavelet transforms, their inverses, and passing gradients through both using pytorch.
The implementation is designed to be used with batches of multichannel images. We use the standard pytorch implementation of having 'NCHW' data format.
- Fixed memory problem with dwt
- Fixed the backend code for the dtcwt calculation - much cleaner now but similar performance
- Both dtcwt and dwt should be more memory efficient/aware now.
- Removed need to specify number of scales for DTCWTInverse
Version 1.0.0 has now added support for separable DWT calculation, and more padding schemes, such as symmetric, zero and periodization.
Also, no longer need to specify the number of channels when creating the wavelet transform classes.
We compare doing the dtcwt with the python package and doing the dwt with PyWavelets to doing both in pytorch_wavelets, using a GTX1080. The numpy methods were run on a 14 core Xeon Phi machine using intel's parallel python. For the dtwcwt we use the near_sym_a filters for the first scale and the qshift_a filters for subsequent scales. For the dwt we use the db4 filters.
For a fixed input size, but varying the number of scales (from 1 to 4) we have the following speeds (averaged over 5 runs):
For an input size with height and width 512 by 512, we also vary the batch size for a 3 scale transform. The resulting speeds were:
The easiest way to install pytorch_wavelets is to clone the repo and pip install
it. Later versions will be released on PyPi but the docs need to updated first:
$ git clone https://github.com/fbcotter/pytorch_wavelets $ cd pytorch_wavelets $ pip install .
(Although the develop command may be more useful if you intend to perform any significant modification to the library.) A test suite is provided so that you may verify the code works on your system:
$ pip install -r tests/requirements.txt $ pytest tests/
For the DWT - note that the highpass output has an extra dimension, in which we stack the (lh, hl, hh) coefficients. Also note that the Yh output has the finest detail coefficients first, and the coarsest last (the opposite to PyWavelets).
import torch
from pytorch_wavelets import DWTForward, DWTInverse
xfm = DWTForward(J=3, wave='db3', mode='zero')
X = torch.randn(10,5,64,64)
Yl, Yh = xfm(X)
print(Yl.shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 12, 12])
print(Yh[0].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 3, 34, 34])
print(Yh[1].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 3, 19, 19])
print(Yh[2].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 3, 12, 12])
ifm = DWTInverse(wave='db3', mode='zero')
Y = ifm((Yl, Yh))For the DTCWT:
import torch
from pytorch_wavelets import DTCWTForward, DTCWTInverse
xfm = DTCWTForward(J=3, biort='near_sym_b', qshift='qshift_b')
X = torch.randn(10,5,64,64)
Yl, Yh = xfm(X)
print(Yl.shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 16, 16])
print(Yh[0].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 6, 32, 32, 2])
print(Yh[1].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 6, 16, 16, 2])
print(Yh[2].shape)
>>> torch.Size([10, 5, 6, 8, 8, 2])
ifm = DTCWTInverse(J=3, biort='near_sym_b', qshift='qshift_b')
Y = ifm((Yl, Yh))Some initial notes:
- Yh returned is a tuple. There are 2 extra dimensions - the first comes between the channel dimension of the input and the row dimension. This is the 6 orientations of the DTCWT. The second is the final dimension, which is the real an imaginary parts (complex numbers are not native to pytorch)
This should come as no surprise to pytorch users. The DWT and DTCWT transforms support cuda calling:
import torch
from pytorch_wavelets import DTCWTForward, DTCWTInverse
xfm = DTCWTForward(J=3, biort='near_sym_b', qshift='qshift_b').cuda()
X = torch.randn(10,5,64,64).cuda()
Yl, Yh = xfm(X)
ifm = DTCWTInverse(J=3, biort='near_sym_b', qshift='qshift_b').cuda()
Y = ifm((Yl, Yh))The automated tests cannot test the gpu functionality, but do check cpu running.
To test whether the repo is working on your gpu, you can download the repo,
ensure you have pytorch with cuda enabled (the tests will check to see if
torch.cuda.is_available() returns true), and run:
pip install -r tests/requirements.txt pytest tests/
From the base of the repo.
It is possible to pass gradients through the forward and backward transforms. All you need to do is ensure that the input to each has the required_grad attribute set to true.
