This repo contains a PyTorch an implementation of different semantic segmentation models for different datasets.
PyTorch and Torchvision needs to be installed before running the scripts, together with PIL and opencv for data-preprocessing and tqdm for showing the training progress. PyTorch v1.1 is supported (using the new supported tensoboard); can work with ealier versions, but instead of using tensoboard, use tensoboardX.
pip install -r requirements.txtor for a local installation
pip install --user -r requirements.txt- A clear and easy to navigate structure,
- A
jsonconfig file with a lot of possibilities for parameter tuning, - Supports various models, losses, Lr schedulers, data augmentations and datasets,

Pascal VOC: For pascal voc, first download the original dataset, after extracting the files we'll end up with
VOCtrainval_11-May-2012/VOCdevkit/VOC2012containing, the image sets, the XML annotation for both object detection and segmentation, and JPEG images.
The second step is to augment the dataset using the additionnal annotations provided by Semantic Contours from Inverse Detectors. First download the image sets (train_aug,trainval_aug,val_augandtest_aug) from this link: Aug ImageSets, and add them the rest of the segmentation sets in/VOCtrainval_11-May-2012/VOCdevkit/VOC2012/ImageSets/Segmentation, and then download new annotations SegmentationClassAug and add them to the pathVOCtrainval_11-May-2012/VOCdevkit/VOC2012, now we're set, for training use the path toVOCtrainval_11-May-2012 -
CityScapes: First download the images and the annotations (there is two types of annotations, Fine
gtFine_trainvaltest.zipand CoarsegtCoarse.zipannotations, and the imagesleftImg8bit_trainvaltest.zip) from the official website cityscapes-dataset.com, extract all of them in the same folder, and use the location of this folder inconfig.jsonfor training. -
ADE20K: For ADE20K, simply download the images and their annotations for training and validation from sceneparsing.csail.mit.edu, and for the rest visit the website.
-
COCO Stuff: For COCO, there is two partitions, CocoStuff10k with only 10k that are used for training the evaluation, note that this dataset is outdated, can be used for small scale testing and training, and can be downloaded here. For the official dataset with all of the training 164k examples, it can be downloaded from the official website.
Note that when using COCO dataset, 164k version is used per default, if 10k is prefered, this needs to be specified with an additionnal parameterpartition = 'CocoStuff164k'in the config file with the corresponding path.
In addition to the Cross-Entorpy loss, there is also
- Dice-Loss, which measures of overlap between two samples and can be more reflective of the training objective (maximizing the mIoU), but is highly non-convexe and can be hard to optimize.
- CE Dice loss, the sum of the Dice loss and CE, CE gives smooth optimization while Dice loss is a good indicator of the quality of the segmentation results.
- Focal Loss, an alternative version of the CE, used to avoid class imbalance where the confident predictions are scaled down.
- Lovasz Softmax lends it self as a good alternative to the Dice loss, where we can directly optimization for the mean intersection-over-union based on the convex Lovász extension of submodular losses (for more details, check the paper: The Lovász-Softmax loss).
- Poly learning rate, where the learning rate is scaled down linearly from the starting value down to zero during training. Considered as the go to scheduler for semantic segmentaion (see Figure below).
- One Cycle learning rate, for a learning rate LR, we start from LR / 10 up to LR for 30% of the training time, and we scale down to LR / 25 for remaining time, the scaling is done in a cos annealing fashion (see Figure bellow), the momentum is also modified but in the opposite manner starting from 0.95 down to 0.85 and up to 0.95, for more detail see the paper: Super-Convergence.
All of the data augmentations are implemented using OpenCV in \base\base_dataset.py, which are: rotation (between -10 and 10 degrees), random croping between 0.5 and 2 of the selected crop_size, random h-flip and blurring
To train a model, first download the dataset to be used to train the model, then choose the desired architecture, add the correct path to the dataset and set the desired hyperparameters (the config file is detailed below), then simply run:
batch_size 必须大于等于n_gpu 否则会报错，比如n_gpu = 6, train_batch_size = 2时报错
python train.py --config config.jsonThe training will automatically be run on the GPUs (if more that one is detected and multipple GPUs were selected in the config file, torch.nn.DataParalled is used for multi-gpu training), if not the CPU is used. The log files will be saved in saved\runs and the .pth chekpoints in saved\, to monitor the training using tensorboard, please run:
tensorboard --logdir saved
For inference, we need a PyTorch trained model, the images we'd like to segment and the config used in training (to load the correct model and other parameters),
python inference.py --config config.json --model best_model.pth --images images_folder
python inference.py --config config.json --model PSPnet.pth --images image_test/The predictions will be saved as .png images using the default palette in the passed fodler name, if not, outputs\ is used, for Pacal VOC the default palette is:
Here are the parameters availble for inference:
--output The folder where the results will be saved (default: outputs).
--extension The extension of the images to segment (default: jpg).
--images Folder containing the images to segment.
--model Path to the trained model.
--mode Mode to be used, choose either `multiscale` or `sliding` for inference (multiscale is the default behaviour).
--config The config file used for training the model.
Trained Model:
| Model | Backbone | PascalVoc val mIoU | PascalVoc test mIoU | Pretrained Model |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSPNet | ResNet 50 | 82% | 79% | Dropbox |
