Abstract

Video semantic segmentation is an essential task for the analysis and understanding of videos. Recent efforts largely focus on supervised video segmentation by learning from fully annotated data, but the learnt models often experience clear performance drop while applied to videos of a different domain. This paper presents DA-VSN, a domain adaptive video segmentation network that addresses domain gaps in videos by temporal consistency regularization (TCR) for consecutive frames of target-domain videos. DA-VSN consists of two novel and complementary designs. The first is cross-domain TCR that guides the prediction of target frames to have similar temporal consistency as that of source frames (learnt from annotated source data) via adversarial learning. The second is intra-domain TCR that guides unconfident predictions of target frames to have similar temporal consistency as confident predictions of target frames. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our proposed domain adaptive video segmentation network which outperforms multiple baselines consistently by large margins.

Installation

1. Conda enviroment:

conda create -n DA-VSN python=3.6
conda activate DA-VSN
conda install -c menpo opencv
pip install torch==1.2.0 torchvision==0.4.0

2. Clone the ADVENT:

git clone https://github.com/valeoai/ADVENT.git
pip install -e ./ADVENT

3. Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/Dayan-Guan/DA-VSN.git
pip install -e ./DA-VSN

Preparation

1. Dataset:

• Cityscapes-Seq

DA-VSN/data/Cityscapes/                       % Cityscapes dataset root

2. Pre-trained models: Download pre-trained models and put in DA-VSN/pretrained_models

Optical Flow Estimation

• For quick preparation: The estimated optical flow can be accessed here and unzip in DA-VSN/data

1. Clone the flownet2-pytorch:

git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/flownet2-pytorch.git

2. Download pre-trained FlowNet2 and put in flownet2-pytorch/pretrained_models

DA-VSN/data/Cityscapes_val_optical_flow_scale512/  % unzip Cityscapes_val_optical_flow_scale512.zip

3. Use the flownet2-pytorch to estimate optical flow

Evaluation on Pretrained Models

• VIPER → Cityscapes-Seq:

cd DA-VSN/davsn/scripts
python test.py --cfg configs/davsn_viper2city_pretrained.yml

• SYNTHIA-Seq → Cityscapes-Seq:

python test.py --cfg configs/davsn_syn2city_pretrained.yml

Training and Testing

• VIPER → Cityscapes-Seq:

cd DA-VSN/davsn/scripts
