Deep-Learning-for-Solar-Panel-Recognition

Recognition of photovoltaic cells in aerial images with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Object detection with YOLOv5 models and image segmentation with Unet++, FPN, DLV3+ and PSPNet.

💽 Installation + pytorch CUDA 11.3

Create a Python 3.8 virtual environment and run the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt && pip install torch torchvision --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu113

With Anaconda:

pip install -r requirements.txt && conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch

💻 How to start?

OBJECT DETECTION

1. Specify the location of the data in sp_dataset.yaml.
2. Preprocess and generate annotations with yolo_preprocess_data.py and create_yolo_annotations.py respectively.
3. Run yolo_train.py for training.
4. Run yolo_detect.py for inference.

SEGMENTATION

1. Specify the structure of the data in segmentation/datasets.py
2. The code to train and run segmentation models can be found in the notebooks section.
