MX Mask R-CNN

An MXNet implementation of Mask R-CNN.

This repository is based largely on the mx-rcnn implementation of Faster RCNN available here.

Main Results

Cityscapes

• Backbone: Resnet-50-FPN

COCO

Coming soon, please stay tuned.

Requirement

We tested our code on:

Ubuntu 16.04, Python 2.7 with

numpy(1.12.1), cv2(2.4.9), PIL(4.3), matplotlib(2.1.0), cython(0.26.1), easydict

Preparation for Training

1. Download Cityscapes data (gtFine_trainvaltest.zip, leftImg8bit_trainvaltest.zip). Extract them into 'data/cityscape/'. The folder structure would then look as shown below:

data/cityscape/
├── leftImg8bit/
│   ├── train/
│   ├── val/
│   └── test/
├── gtFine/
│   ├── train/
│   ├── val/
│   └── test/
└── imglists/
    ├── train.lst
    ├── val.lst
    └── test.lst

2. Download Resnet-50 pretrained model.

bash scripts/download_res50.sh

3. Build MXNet with ROIAlign operator.

cp rcnn/CXX_OP/* incubator-mxnet/src/operator/

To build MXNet from source, please refer to the tutorial.

4. Build related cython code.

make

5. Kick off training

bash scripts/train_alternate.sh

Preparation for Evaluation

1. Prepare Cityscapes evaluation scripts.

bash scripts/download_cityscapescripts.sh

2. Eval

bash scripts/eval.sh

Demo

1. Download model, available at Dropbox/BaiduYun, and place it in the model folder.
2. Make sure that you have the cityscapes data in 'data/cityscapes' folder.

bash scripts/demo.sh

Test single image

1. Download model, available at Dropbox/BaiduYun, and place it in the model folder.
2. Follow Preparation for Training (step1-step4)
3. run bash scripts/demo_single_image.sh, you can change the image path in script demo_single_image.sh.

FAQ

Q: It says AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ROIAlign'.

A: This is because either

• you forget to copy the operators to your MXNet folder

• or you forget to re-compile MXNet and re-install MXNet python interface

• or you install the wrong MXNet

  Please print mxnet.__path__ to make sure you use correct MXNet

Q: I encounter incubator-mxnet/mshadow/mshadow/././././cuda/tensor_gpu-inl.cuh:110: Check failed: err == cudaSuccess (7 vs. 0) Name: MapPlanKernel ErrStr:too many resources requested for launch at the begining.

A: Please try adding MSHADOW_CFLAGS += -DMSHADOW_OLD_CUDA=1 in mxnet/mshadow/make/mshadow.mk and re-compile MXNet.
