Who Left the Dogs Out?
Evaluation and demo code for our ECCV 2020 paper: Who Left the Dogs Out? 3D Animal Reconstruction with Expectation Maximization in the Loop.
Install
Clone the repository with submodules:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/benjiebob/WLDO
For segmentation decoding, install pycocotools
python -m pip install "git+https://github.com/philferriere/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI"
Datasets
Follow the instructions on the repository to download StanfordExtra annotations and images.
Please ensure you have StanfordExtra_v12 installed, which we released 1 Feb 2021.
You may also wish to evaluate the Animal Pose Dataset. If so, download
all of the dog images into data/animal_pose/images. For example, an image path should look like: data/animal_pose/images/2007_000063.jpg
. We have reformatted the annotation file and enclose it in this repository data/animal_pose/animal_pose_data.json
.
Splits
The train/validation/test splits used for our ECCV 2020 submission are contained in the data/StanfordExtra_v12
repository and under the data/animal_pose
folder.
Pretrained model
Please download our pretrained model and place underneath data/pretrained/3501_00034_betas_v4.pth
.
Quickstart
Demo
To run the model on a series of images, place the images in a directory, and call the script demo.py.
To see an example of this working, run demo.py and it will use the images in example_imgs
:
cd wldo_regressor
python demo.py
Eval
To evaluate the performance of the model on the StanfordExtra dataset, run eval.py:
cd wldo_regressor
python eval.py --dataset stanford
You can also run on the animal_pose
dataset
python eval.py --dataset animal_pose

More details can be found in the paper.
Related Work
This repository owes a great deal to the following works and authors:
- SMALify; Biggs et al. provided an energy minimization framework for fitting to animal video/images. A version of this was used as a baseline in this paper.
- SMAL; Zuffi et al. designed the SMAL deformable quadruped template model and have provided me with wonderful advice/guidance throughout my PhD journey.
- SMALST; Zuffi et al. provided PyTorch implementations of the SMAL skinning functions which have been used here.
