Requirements

Jittor
PyTorch (just for loading the pretrained model)
numpy
opencv-python
scipy

Testing

Clone the RCF repository:

git clone https://github.com/yun-liu/RCF-Jittor.git

Download the pretrained model (BSDS500+PASCAL), and put it into the $ROOT_DIR folder.
Download the BSDS500 dataset as below, and extract it to the $ROOT_DIR/data/ folder.
```
wget http://mftp.mmcheng.net/liuyun/rcf/data/HED-BSDS.tar.gz
```
Run the following command to start the testing:
```
python test.py --checkpoint bsds500_pascal_model.pth --save-dir /path/to/output/directory/
```
This pretrained model should achieve an ODS F-measure of 0.812.

Edge PR Curves

We have released the code and data for plotting the edge PR curves of many existing edge detectors here.
