One Hundred Layers Tiramisu
PyTorch implementation of The One Hundred Layers Tiramisu: Fully Convolutional DenseNets for Semantic Segmentation.
Tiramisu combines DensetNet and U-Net for high performance semantic segmentation. In this repository, we attempt to replicate the authors' results on the CamVid dataset.
Setup
Requires Anaconda for Python3 installed.
conda create --name tiramisu python=3.6
source activate tiramisu
conda install pytorch torchvision -c pytorch
The train.ipynb notebook shows a basic train/test workflow.
Dataset

Specs
- Training: 367 frames
- Validation: 101 frames
- TestSet: 233 frames
- Dimensions: 360x480
- Classes: 11 (+1 background)
Architecture
Tiramisu adopts the UNet design with downsampling, bottleneck, and upsampling paths and skip connections. It replaces convolution and max pooling layers with Dense blocks from the DenseNet architecture. Dense blocks contain residual connections like in ResNet except they concatenate, rather than sum, prior feature maps.

Authors' Results
Our Results
FCDenseNet67
We trained for 670 epochs (224x224 crops) with 100 epochs fine-tuning (full-size images). The authors mention "global accuracy" of 90.8 for FC-DenseNet67 on Camvid, compared to our 86.8. If we exclude the 'background' class, accuracy increases to ~89%. We think the authors did this, but haven't confirmed.
| Dataset | Loss | Accuracy |

| Validation | .209 | 92.5 |
| Testset | .435 | 86.8 |
FCDenseNet103
We trained for 874 epochs with 50 epochs fine-tuning.
| Dataset | Loss | Accuracy |
|---|---|---|
| Validation | .178 | 92.8 |
