Hybrid Task Cascade for Instance Segmentation

Introduction

[ALGORITHM]

We provide config files to reproduce the results in the CVPR 2019 paper for Hybrid Task Cascade.

Dataset

HTC requires COCO and COCO-stuff dataset for training. You need to download and extract it in the COCO dataset path. The directory should be like this.

Results and Models

The results on COCO 2017val are shown in the below table. (results on test-dev are usually slightly higher than val)

Backbone	Style	Lr schd	Mem (GB)	Inf time (fps)	box AP	mask AP	Config	Download
R-50-FPN	pytorch	1x	8.2	5.8	42.3	37.4	config	model | log

• In the HTC paper and COCO 2018 Challenge, score_thr is set to 0.001 for both baselines and HTC.
• We use 8 GPUs with 2 images/GPU for R-50 and R-101 models, and 16 GPUs with 1 image/GPU for X-101 models. If you would like to train X-101 HTC with 8 GPUs, you need to change the lr from 0.02 to 0.01.

We also provide a powerful HTC with DCN and multi-scale training model. No testing augmentation is used.
