Demo

:round_pushpin: Installation

We test the code in the following environments, other versions may also be compatible: Python=3.9, PyTorch=1.10.1, CUDA=11.3

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install 'git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/fvcore' 
pip install -U 'git+https://github.com/cocodataset/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI'
cd models/ops
python setup.py build install
cd ../..

:round_pushpin: Training

  1. Download MUTR's checkpoint from HERE (Swin-L, joint-training on Ref-COCO series and Ref-YouTube-VOS).
  2. Run following commands to fine-tune MUTR on MeViS:
python -m torch.distributed.launch \
    --nproc_per_node 1 \      # num of gpus during training
    --master_port 10010 \
    --use_env train.py \
    --with_box_refine \
    --binary \
    --dataset_file mevis \
    --epochs 2 \
    --lr_drop 1 \
    --resume [MUTR checkpoint] \
    --output_dir [output path] \
    --mevis_path [MeViS path] \
    --backbone swin_l_p4w7

Please note that different num of gpus lead to different scores (as discussed HERE).

:round_pushpin: Inference

Our checkpoint is available on Google Drive.

python inference_mevis.py \
    --with_box_refine \
    --binary \
    --output_dir [output path] \
    --resume [checkpoint path] \
    --ngpu 1 \
    --batch_size 1 \
    --backbone swin_l_p4w7 \
    --mevis_path [MeViS path] \
    --split valid \
    --sub_video_len 30
