Update: The paper has been acceptted at TMM! Title has changed as suggested by one of the reviewers. Please consider cite the new version. I did not upload the new version to Arxiv since I am not sure if it is allowed. If you know it is ok to do so, please contact me and I am glad to do the update.

Setup

conda env create -f env.yml
conda activate pixelwise

Dataset

All datasets should be placed in ./Data folder. After placing datasets correctly, run python check_dataset.py --dataset <dataset_name> to build the data files used to train.

NYU

1. Download the dataset from website.
2. Unzip the files to ./Data and rename the folder as NYU.

MSRA

1. Download the dataset from dropbox.
2. Unzip the files to ./Data and rename the folder as MSRA.

ICVL

1. Download the dataset from here.
2. Extract Training.tar.gz and Testing.tar.gz to ./Data/ICVL/Training and ./Data/ICVL/Testing respectively.

HAND17

1. Ask for the permission from the website and download.
2. Download center files from github release, and put them in Data/HAND17/.
3. Extract frame.zip and images.zip to ./Data/HAND17/. Your should end with a folder look like below:

HAND17/
  |
  |-- hands17_center_train.txt
  |
  |-- hands17_center_test.txt
  |
  |-- training/
  |     |
  |     |-- images/
  |     |
  |     |-- Training_Annotation.txt
  |
  |-- frame/
  |     |
  |     |-- images/
  |     |
  |     |-- BoundingBox.txt

Train

Run python train.py --dataset <dataset_name>, dataset_name can be chose from NYU, ICVL and HAND17.

For MSRA dataset, you should run python train_msra.py --subject <subject_id>.

Test

Run python test.py --dataset <dataset_name>.

For MSRA dataset, you should run python test_msra.py --subject <subject_id>.
