Faster R-CNN / Mask R-CNN on COCO

This example provides a minimal (2k lines) and faithful implementation of the following object detection / instance segmentation papers:

with the support of:

This is likely the best-performing open source TensorFlow reimplementation of the above papers.

Dependencies

  • Python 3.3+; OpenCV
  • TensorFlow ≥ 1.6
  • pycocotools: pip install 'git+https://github.com/cocodataset/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI'
  • Pre-trained ImageNet ResNet model from tensorpack model zoo
  • COCO data. It needs to have the following directory structure:
COCO/DIR/
  annotations/
    instances_train201?.json
    instances_val201?.json
  train201?/
    # image files that are mentioned in the corresponding json
  val201?/
    # image files that are mentioned in corresponding json

You can use either the 2014 version or the 2017 version of the dataset. To use the common "trainval35k + minival" split for the 2014 dataset, just download the annotation files instances_minival2014.json, instances_valminusminival2014.json from here to annotations/ as well.

Note that train2017==trainval35k==train2014+val2014-minival2014, and val2017==minival2014

Usage

Train:

To train on a single machine:

./train.py --config \
    MODE_MASK=True MODE_FPN=True \
    DATA.BASEDIR=/path/to/COCO/DIR \
    BACKBONE.WEIGHTS=/path/to/ImageNet-R50-AlignPadding.npz

To run distributed training, set TRAINER=horovod and refer to HorovodTrainer docs.

Options can be changed by either the command line or the config.py file (recommended). Some reasonable configurations are listed in the table below.

Inference:

To predict on an image (needs DISPLAY to show the outputs):

./predict.py --predict input1.jpg input2.jpg --load /path/to/Trained-Model-Checkpoint --config SAME-AS-TRAINING

To evaluate the performance of a model on COCO:

./predict.py --evaluate output.json --load /path/to/Trained-Model-Checkpoint \
    --config SAME-AS-TRAINING

Several trained models can be downloaded in the table below. Evaluation and prediction will need to be run with the corresponding configs used in training.

Results

These models are trained on trainval35k and evaluated on minival2014 using mAP@IoU=0.50:0.95. All models are fine-tuned from ImageNet pre-trained R50/R101 models in tensorpack model zoo, unless otherwise noted. All models are trained with 8 NVIDIA V100s, unless otherwise noted.

Performance in Detectron can be approximately reproduced.

1: Numbers taken from Detectron Model Zoo. We compare models that have identical training & inference cost between the two implementations. Their numbers can be different due to many small implementation details. For example, our FPN models are sometimes slightly worse in box AP, which is mainly due to batch size.

2: Numbers taken from Table 5 in Group Normalization

3: Our mAP is 10+ point better than the official model in matterport/Mask_RCNN with the same R101-FPN backbone.

4: This entry does not use ImageNet pre-training. Detectron numbers are taken from Fig. 5 in Rethinking ImageNet Pre-training. Note that our training strategy is slightly different: we enable cascade throughout the entire training.
