Keras MaskRCNN

Keras implementation of MaskRCNN instance aware segmentation as described in Mask R-CNN by Kaiming He, Georgia Gkioxari, Piotr Dollár, Ross Girshick, using RetinaNet as base.

Disclaimer

This repository doesn't strictly implement MaskRCNN as described in their paper. The difference is that their paper describes using a RPN to propose ROIs and to use those ROIs to perform bounding box regression, classification and mask estimation simultaneously. Instead, this repository uses RetinaNet to do the bounding box regression and classification and builds a mask estimation head on top of those predictions.

In theory RetinaNet can be configured to act as a RPN network, which would then be identical to MaskRCNN, but doing so would require more layers and complexity than is actually necessary. Less is more :)

Installation

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install keras-retinanet (pip install keras-retinanet --user). Make sure tensorflow v1.13.1 is installed and is using the GPU.
3. Optionally, install pycocotools if you want to train / test on the MS COCO dataset by running pip install --user git+https://github.com/cocodataset/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI.
4. Run pip install keras-maskrcnn --user to install the latest release, or run pip install . --user in the repository to install that specific version..

Testing

An example of testing the network can be seen in this Notebook. In general, inference of the network works as follows:

outputs = model.predict_on_batch(inputs)
boxes  = outputs[-4]
scores = outputs[-3]
labels = outputs[-2]
masks  = outputs[-1]

Where boxes are shaped (None, None, 4) (for (x1, y1, x2, y2)), scores is shaped (None, None) (classification score), labels is shaped (None, None) (label corresponding to the score) and masks is shaped (None, None, 28, 28). In all three outputs, the first dimension represents the shape and the second dimension indexes the list of detections.

Loading models can be done in the following manner:

from keras_maskrcnn.models import load_model
model = load_model('/path/to/model.h5', backbone_name='resnet50')

Execution time on NVIDIA Pascal Titan X is roughly 175msec for an image of shape 1000x800x3.

Example output images using keras-maskrcnn are shown below.

Training

keras-maskrcnn can be trained using this script. Note that the train script uses relative imports since it is inside the keras_maskrcnn package. If you want to adjust the script for your own use outside of this repository, you will need to switch it to use absolute imports.

Usage

For training on MS COCO, run:

# Running directly from the repository:
./keras_maskrcnn/bin/train.py coco /path/to/MS/COCO

# Using the installed script:
maskrcn-train coco /path/to/MS/COCO

For training on a [custom dataset], a CSV file can be used as a way to pass the data. See below for more details on the format of these CSV files. To train using your CSV, run:

# Running directly from the repository:
./keras_maskrcnn/bin/train.py csv /path/to/csv/file/containing/annotations /path/to/csv/file/containing/classes

# Using the installed script:
maskrcnn-train csv /path/to/csv/file/containing/annotations /path/to/csv/file/containing/classes

CSV datasets

The CSVGenerator provides an easy way to define your own datasets. It uses two CSV files: one file containing annotations and one file containing a class name to ID mapping.

Annotations format

The CSV file with annotations should contain one annotation per line. Images with multiple bounding boxes should use one row per bounding box. Note that indexing for pixel values starts at 0. The expected format of each line is:

path/to/image.jpg,x1,y1,x2,y2,class_name,/path/to/mask.png

Some images may not contain any labeled objects. To add these images to the dataset as negative examples, add an annotation where x1, y1, x2, y2, class_name and mask are all empty:

path/to/image.jpg,,,,,,

A full example:

/data/imgs/img_001.jpg,837,346,981,456,cow,/data/masks/img_001_001.png
/data/imgs/img_002.jpg,215,312,279,391,cat,/data/masks/img_002_001.png
/data/imgs/img_002.jpg,22,5,89,84,bird,/data/masks/img_002_002.png
/data/imgs/img_003.jpg,,,,,,

This defines a dataset with 3 images. img_001.jpg contains a cow. img_002.jpg contains a cat and a bird. img_003.jpg contains no interesting objects/animals.

Class mapping format

The class name to ID mapping file should contain one mapping per line. Each line should use the following format:

class_name,id

Indexing for classes starts at 0. Do not include a background class as it is implicit.

For example:

cow,0
cat,1
bird,2
