This is a collection of state-of-the-art deep model for estimating optical flow. The main goal is to provide a unified framework where multiple models can be trained and tested more easily.
The work and code from many others are present here. I tried to make sure everything is properly referenced, but please let me know if I missed something.
This is still under development, so some things may not work as intended. I plan to add more models in the future, as well keep improving the platform.
Major update to support Lightning 2 (finally!). However, it also introduces breaking changes from the previous v0.3 code. See the details below.
- Transitioning from v0.3 to v0.4: check the v0.4 upgrade guide
- Added features:
- Support for YAML config files. See the config file documentation
- Table comparing PTLFlow results with the original papers to check the stability of the included models.
- Added new models:
- NeuFlow v2 https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.10161

Read more details about the models on https://ptlflow.readthedocs.io/en/latest/models/models_list.html.
You can see a table with main evaluation results of the available models here. More results are also available in the folder docs/source/results.
Disclaimer: These results are the ones obtained by evaluating the available models in this framework in my machine. Your results may be different due to differences in hardware and software. I also do not guarantee that the results of each model will be similar to the ones presented in the respective papers or other original sources. If you need to replicate the original results from a paper, you should use the original implementations.
Please take a look at the documentation to learn how to install and use PTLFlow.
You can also check the notebooks below running on Google Colab for some practical examples:
If you are using the previous v0.3.X code, then check the v0.3.2 documentation and the following example notebooks:
- Inference with a pretrained model (PTLFlow v0.3).
- Training and using the learned weights for inference (PTLFlow v0.3).
The original code of this repository is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.
Each model may be subjected to different licenses. The license of each model is included in their respective folders. It is your responsibility to make sure that your project is in compliance with all the licenses and conditions involved.
The external pretrained weights all have different licenses, which are listed in their respective folders.
The pretrained weights that were trained within this project are available under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license, which I believe that covers the licenses of the datasets used in the training. That being said, I am not a legal expert so if you plan to use them to any purpose other than research, you should check all the involved licenses by yourself. Additionally, the datasets used for the training usually require the user to cite the original papers, so be sure to include their respective references in your work.
Contribution are welcome! Please check CONTRIBUTING.md to see how to contribute.

- This README file is heavily inspired by the one from the timm repository.
- Some parts of the code were inspired by or taken from FlowNetPytorch.
- flownet2-pytorch was also another important source.
- The current main training routine is based on RAFT.
