Dependecies

• opencv (To save output images)
• json (To read experiment parameters file)

Usage

python run-nconv-cnn.py -mode [MODE] -exp [EXP] -chkpt [CHKPT] -set [SET]

[MODE]: The mode could be either train or eval.

[EXP]: The name of the directory in 'workspace' which has the network file.

[CHKPT]: (optional) Continue traing from a specific epoch or evaluate using a specific epoch.

[SET]: (optional) The set to evaluate on. The possible options are val, selval or test.

Networks Description

Networks are located in "workspace" directory. Each network file is stored in its own directory and associated with params.json which has the training parameters for the network.

Four netwokrs are available:

1. exp_unguided_disparity: Unguided depth completion network trained on disparity (Deonted as NConv-HMS in paper [1])
2. exp_unguided_depth: Unguided depth completion network trained on depth.
3. exp_guided_nconv_cnn_l1: Guided depth completion network trained on depth (Denoted as MS-Net[LF] or NConv-CNN-L1 in paper [2])
4. exp_guided_nconv_cnn_l2: Guided depth completion network trained on depth (Denoted as NConv-CNN-L2 in paper [2])
5. exp_guided_enc_dec: Guided depth completion network trained on depth (Denoted as Enc-Dec[EF] in paper [2])

Evaluation using Pretrained Weights

You can evaluate any of the networks using the pretrained-weights by calling

python run-nconv-cnn.py -mode eval -exp <exp_name>
