Transfer Learning for Semantic Segmentation using PyTorch DeepLab v3

This repository contains code for Fine Tuning DeepLabV3 ResNet101 in PyTorch. The model is from the torchvision module. The tutorial can be found here: https://towardsdatascience.com/transfer-learning-for-segmentation-using-deeplabv3-in-pytorch-f770863d6a42?sk=b403331a7b30c02bff165a93823a5524

I've fine tuned the model for the CrackForest data-set.

The model was fine tuned for 25 epochs and achieves an testing AUROC value of 0.842.

The segmentation output of the model on a sample image are shown below.

Installing dependencies

Using pip

pip install -r requirements.txt

Using conda

conda env create -f environment.yml

Usage of the module

Usage: main.py [OPTIONS]

Options:
  --data-directory TEXT  Specify the data directory.  [required]
  --exp_directory TEXT   Specify the experiment directory.  [required]
  --epochs INTEGER       Specify the number of epochs you want to run the
                         experiment for. Default is 25.

  --batch-size INTEGER   Specify the batch size for the dataloader. Default is 4.
  --help                 Show this message and exit.

To run the code with the CrackForest dataset and store the results in folder called CFExp use the following command.

python main.py --data-directory CrackForest --exp_directory CFExp

The datahandler module has two functions for creating datasets fron single and different folders.

  1. def get_dataloader_sep_folder(data_dir: str,
                               image_folder: str = 'Image',
                               mask_folder: str = 'Mask',
                               batch_size: int = 4)
    

    Create Train and Test dataloaders from two separate Train and Test folders. The directory structure should be as follows.

    data_dir
    --Train
    ------Image
    ---------Image1
    ---------ImageN
    ------Mask
    ---------Mask1
    ---------MaskN
    --Test
    ------Image
    ---------Image1
    ---------ImageM
    ------Mask
    ---------Mask1
    ---------MaskM
    
  2. def get_dataloader_single_folder(data_dir: str,
                                  image_folder: str = 'Images',
                                  mask_folder: str = 'Masks',
                                  fraction: float = 0.2,
                                  batch_size: int = 4)
    

    Create from a single folder. The structure should be as follows.

    --data_dir
    ------Image
    ---------Image1
    ---------ImageN
    ------Mask
    ---------Mask1
    ---------MaskN
    

The repository also contains a JupyterLab file with the loss and metric plots as well as the sample prediction code.
