Examples of Single Shot Multibox Detector [1]

Performance

PASCAL VOC2007 Test

Model Original Ours (weight conversion) Ours (train)
SSD300 77.5 % [2] 77.8 % 77.5 % / 77.6 % (4 GPUs)
SSD512 79.5 % [2] 79.7 % 80.1 % * / 80.5 % (4 GPUs)

Scores are mean Average Precision (mAP) with PASCAL VOC2007 metric.

*: We set batchsize to 24 because of memory limitation. The original paper used 32.

Demo

Detect objects in an given image. This demo downloads Pascal VOC pretrained model automatically if a pretrained model path is not given.

$ python demo.py [--model ssd300|ssd512] [--gpu <gpu>] [--pretrained-model <model_path>] <image>.jpg

Convert Caffe model

Convert *.caffemodel to *.npz. Some layers are renamed to fit ChainerCV. SSD300 and SSD512 are supported.

$ python caffe2npz.py <source>.caffemodel <target>.npz

Evaluation

The evaluation can be conducted using chainercv/examples/detection/eval_detection.py.

Train

You can train the model with the following code. Note that this code requires cv2 module.

$ python train.py [--model ssd300|ssd512] [--batchsize <batchsize>] [--gpu <gpu>]

If you want to use multiple GPUs, use train_multi.py. Note that this code requires chainermn module.

$ mpiexec -n <#gpu> python train_multi.py [--model ssd300|ssd512] [--batchsize <batchsize>] [--test-batchsize <batchsize>]

You can download weights that were trained by ChainerCV.
