Semantic Segmentation

Easy to use and customizable SOTA Semantic Segmentation models with abundant datasets in PyTorch

Major Rework! Stay tuned...

A lot has been changed since 2022, nowadays there are even open-world segmentation models (Segment Anything). However, traditional segmentation models are still in demand for high accuracy and custom use cases. This repo will be updated according to new PyTorch version, updated models, and documentations for how to use with a custom dataset, etc.

Expected release date -> May 2024

Planned features:

• Rework on whole training pipeline
• Baseline pre-trained model
• New updated ideas
• Easy integration with SOTA backbone models (with tutorials)
• Tutorial for custom dataset
• Distributed training

Current features to be discarded:

• Amount of datasets provided will be reduced. But instead, representative ones will be remained with a tutorial for custom dataset.
• Amount of models provided will be reducted. Instead, valuable tricks and modules will be remained, and can be easily integrated with any models.
• Augmentations will be replaced with official torchvisionv2 transforms.
• Conversion and inference with other frameworks

Features

• Applicable to following tasks:
  • Scene Parsing
  • Human Parsing
  • Face Parsing
  • Medical Image Segmentation (Coming Soon)
• 20+ Datasets
• 15+ SOTA Backbones
• 10+ SOTA Semantic Segmentation Models
• PyTorch, ONNX, TFLite, OpenVINO Export & Inference

Usage

Installation

• python >= 3.6
• torch >= 1.8.1
• torchvision >= 0.9.1

Then, clone the repo and install the project with:

$ git clone https://github.com/sithu31296/semantic-segmentation
$ cd semantic-segmentation
$ pip install -e .

Configuration (click to expand)

Create a configuration file in configs. Sample configuration for ADE20K dataset can be found here. Then edit the fields you think if it is needed. This configuration file is needed for all of training, evaluation and prediction scripts.

Training (click to expand)

To train with a single GPU:

$ python tools/train.py --cfg configs/CONFIG_FILE.yaml

To train with multiple gpus, set DDP field in config file to true and run as follows:

$ python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=2 --use_env tools/train.py --cfg configs/<CONFIG_FILE_NAME>.yaml

Evaluation (click to expand)

Make sure to set MODEL_PATH of the configuration file to your trained model directory.

$ python tools/val.py --cfg configs/<CONFIG_FILE_NAME>.yaml

To evaluate with multi-scale and flip, change ENABLE field in MSF to true and run the same command as above.

Inference

To make an inference, edit the parameters of the config file from below.

• Change MODEL >> NAME and BACKBONE to your desired pretrained model.
• Change DATASET >> NAME to the dataset name depending on the pretrained model.
• Set TEST >> MODEL_PATH to pretrained weights of the testing model.
• Change TEST >> FILE to the file or image folder path you want to test.
• Testing results will be saved in SAVE_DIR.

## example using ade20k pretrained models
$ python tools/infer.py --cfg configs/ade20k.yaml

Example test results (SegFormer-B2):

Convert to other Frameworks (ONNX, CoreML, OpenVINO, TFLite)

To convert to ONNX and CoreML, run:

$ python tools/export.py --cfg configs/<CONFIG_FILE_NAME>.yaml

To convert to OpenVINO and TFLite, see torch_optimize.

Inference (ONNX, OpenVINO, TFLite)

## ONNX Inference
$ python scripts/onnx_infer.py --model <ONNX_MODEL_PATH> --img-path <TEST_IMAGE_PATH>

## OpenVINO Inference
$ python scripts/openvino_infer.py --model <OpenVINO_MODEL_PATH> --img-path <TEST_IMAGE_PATH>

## TFLite Inference
$ python scripts/tflite_infer.py --model <TFLite_MODEL_PATH> --img-path <TEST_IMAGE_PATH>
