Installation

Clone this repo by git clone https://github.com/Majiker/BalancedMetaSoftmax-InstanceSeg.git

Install detectron2 by python -m pip install -e BalancedMetaSoftmax-InstanceSeg

To set up LVIS-0.5 dataset, please follow the procedures described here.

Please install higher in order to run BALMS:

pip install higher

Training

You may want to download a pretrained model here and put it in pretrains folder. Otherwise you may train the base model by yourself using the following command with 8 GPUs:

python ./projects/BALMS/train_net.py  --config-file ./projects/BALMS/configs/feature/sigmoid_resampling_mask_rcnn_R_50_FPN_1x.yaml --num-gpus 8

After obtaining the base model and putting it in pretrains, train the model with the following command:

python ./projects/BALMS/train_net.py  --config-file ./projects/BALMS/configs/classifier/balms_decouple_resampling_mask_rcnn_R_50_FPN_1x.yaml --num-gpus 8

Evaluation

Model evaluation can be done using the following command:

python ./projects/BALMS/train_net.py --config-file ./projects/BALMS/configs/classifier/balms_decouple_resampling_mask_rcnn_R_50_FPN_1x.yaml--eval-only MODEL.WEIGHTS /path/to/model_checkpoint
