Generate Video Frames with the Trained E2HQV

Fix on 06/27/2024: app.py line 144 replace the p_states to current_states: return rf0, f01.detach(), last_gt, current_states, all_output

Note: Due to the size limitation on GitHub, the complete code along with the model weights is stored on Google Drive.

On Google Drive, we provide minimal code to predict video frames using event-streams represented as voxel grids with 5 temporal bins. This representation was proposed by Alex et al. in their CVPR 2019 paper.
An example sequence of voxel grids can be found in ./dataset/desk_fast_voxelgrid_5bins_examples. To generate the corresponding frames, simply run python3 app.py in the terminal.
If you wish to use E2HQV with your own event data, place your event temporal bins in the form of a 5xHxW numpy array saved in .npy format (to ./dataset/desk_fast_voxelgrid_5bins_examples). Then, execute python3 app.py to process your data. In the Dataset Preparation section, we will provide detailed instructions and the necessary code to convert raw event data into voxel format.

Known Issue: The training process did not utilize optical flow, unlike other methods such as E2VID. As a result, the temporal consistency is suboptimal.

Dataset Preparation

You can find the e2voxel_grid.py script for converting events to voxel grids in Google Drive.
