[openaccess][arXiv] [BibTeX]

News: Our new work on instance shadow detection was accepted in CVPR 2021 as Oral presentation, check here!

-c

Instance shadow detection aims to find shadow instances paired with object instances. We present a dataset, a deep framework, and an evaluation metric to approach this new task. This repo is implemented on Detectron2.

Dependences

Installation

Install LISA and pysobatools

$ cd InstanceShadowDetection
$ python setup.py install
