Inharmonious Region

Here are some examples of inharmonious images (top row) and their inharmonious region masks (bottom row). These inharmonious region could be infered by comparing the color or illuminance with surrounding area.

DIRL Network

We also demonstrate our proposed DIRL(Deep Inharmonious Region Localization) network on the left part of following figure. The right part elaborates our proposed Bi-directional Feature Integration (BFI) block, Mask-guided Dual Attention (MDA) block, and Global-context Guided Decoder (GGD) block.

Quick Start

Install

• Install PyTorch>=1.0 following the official instructions
• git clone https://github.com/bcmi/DIRL.git
• Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Preparation

In this paper, we conduct all of the experiments on the latest released harmonization dataset iHarmoney4.

One concern is that the inharmonious region in an inharmonious image may be ambiguous because the background can also be treated as inharmonious region. To avoid the ambiguity, we only use the inharmonious images without using paired harmonious images, and simply discard the images with foreground occupying larger than 50% area, which only account for about 2% of the whole dataset.

We tailor the training set to 64255 images and test set to 7237 images respectively, yielding le50_train.txt and le50_test.text files in this project. And you can further divide the training list into training set and validation set, in which we randomly choose 10% items in le50_train.txt as validation set.

If you want to use other datasets, please follow the dataset loader file:data/ihd_dataset.py

Train and Test

Please specify the bash file. We provide a training and a test bash examples:train.sh, test.sh

One quick training command:

python3  dirl_train.py --dataset_root <PATH_TO_DATASET> --checkpoints_dir <PATH_TO_SAVE> --batch_size 8 --gpu_ids 0

Pretrained Model

Google Drive | Baidu Cloud (access code: hvto)

Download the model and put it to directory <save_dir>, where <save_dir> should be same as the bash parameter <checkpoints_dir>.

Visualization Results

Here we show show qualitative comparision with state-of-art methods of other related fields:

Besides, we visualize the refined feature from our proposed Mask-guided Dual Attention(MDA) block and compare it with vanilla Dual Attention(DA) block:
