[Reimplementation] How are you associating ROI features to GT bounding boxes?

💬 Describe the reimplementation questions

I've been reading through and rerunning the code and I haven't been able to figure out how you associate ROI features to their corresponding GT bboxes in the current batch - as specified by algorithm 1 in the paper.

I noticed on lines 434 and 435 of feature_imitation_roi_head.py, we have:
cur_gt_cat_id = sampling_results[i].pos_gt_labels[hq_gt_ind]
cur_gt_roi_feat = bbox_feats[i][hq_gt_ind, :, :, :].clone()

My understanding is that hq_gt_ind corresponds to the index of the ground truths that has enough predictions to compute the necessary IQ score. Thus, it will have a value in [0, ... , num ground truths].

However, bbox_feats[i] has shape (256, 256, 7, 7) and sampling_results[i].pos_gt_labels has a shape larger than the number of ground truths.

If I'm understanding right, why does indexing into sampling_results[i].pos_gt_labels and bbox_feats[i] with hq_gt_ind make sense?

When I train the project ,something wrong happens. In datasets , the config file named sodad.py
has key "ori_ann_file" , and it's val defualt as "rawData/Annotations/val_wo_ignore.json". I do not know its meaning?

For a single image, we have the ground truth with the number of num_gts, then the shape of bbox_feats[i] is (num_pro, 256, 7, 7) and the term num_pro is set to 512 by default, which indicates the number of proposals., and the shape of sampling_results[i].pos_gt_labels is (num_pos_pro, ), and num_pos_pro ≥ num_gts.
Moreover, the first num_gts regional features in bbox_feats correspond to the num_gts ground truths in the current image.
We use hq_gt_ind to index the high-quality instances, and if you take a closer look at it, you will find the maximum number of hq_gt_ind is less than or equal to num_gts, i.e., max(hq_gt_ind) ≤ num_gts - 1. The above process actually corresponds to the line 6 of Alg. 1 in our paper.

@jiinhui Filter ignore annotations in val.json then you will get val_wo_ignore.json

Hey Shaun, thanks for the response! That all makes sense and I get that those lines correspond to line 6: saving the roi features corresponding to gt bboxes that have high IQ associated with them.

More specifically: how do you know that bbox_feats[i][hq_gt_ind, :, :, :] is the roi feature that corresponds to the gt of hq_gt_ind? Why do they match up?

I think I understand what is supposed to be happening conceptually, but I'm not seeing how the code is doing what the paper is stating.

Sry, I could't clearly understand what you mean. When you get hq_gt_ind, you can easily obtain the desired roi features by the index operation in Python.
One thing for sure is that the first num_gts regional features in bbox_feats correspond to the num_gts ground truths in the current image, this is the default setting in MMDetection. Maybe you can take a deeper look at bbox_feats in the standard_roi_head.py.

Ok sounds good, I'll check out bbox_feats in standard_roi_head.py. I didn't know that the first num_gts were automatically associated to the num_gts ground truths. Thank you!
