Steps to evaluate modes on lfw/cfp/agedb:
- download data from GDrive or BaiduDrive, code: z7hs
cd eval/eval_recognition/
and extract the data in the folder- evaluate the model by with
eval.sh
(e.g.,./eval.sh magface_epoch_00025.pth official 100
)
Use eval_ijb.sh
for evaluation on IJB-B (Gdrive orBaiduDrive code: iiwa) and IJB-C (Gdrive or BaiduDrive code: q6md). Please apply for permissions from NIST before your usage.
Steps to calculate face qualities (examples.ipynb is a toy example).
- extract features from faces with
inference/gen_feat.py
. - calculate feature magnitudes with
np.linalg.norm()
.
Plot the error-versus-reject curve:
- prepare the features (in the recognition step).
cd eva/eval_quality
and runeval_quality.sh
(e.g.,./eval_quality.sh lfw
).
Note: model used in the quality assessment session of the paper can be found here.
- install requirements.
- Align images to 112x112 pixels with 5 facial landmarks (code).
- Prepare a training list with format
imgname 0 id 0
in each line (id
starts from 0), as indicated here. In the paper, we employ MS1MV2 as the training dataset which can be downloaded from InsightFace (MS1M-ArcFace in DataZoo). Userec2image.py
to extract images. - Modify parameters in
run.sh/run_dist.sh/run_dist_cos.sh
and run it.
Note: Use Pytorch > 1.7 for this feature. Codes are mainly based on torchshard from Kaiyu Yue.
How to run:
- Update NCCL info (can be found with the command
ifconfig
) and port info in train_dist.py - Set the number of gpus in here.
- [Optional. Not tested yet!] If training with multi-machines, modify node number.
- [Optional. Help needed as NAN can be reached during training.] Enable fp16 training by setiing
--fp16 1
in run/run_dist.sh. - run run/run_dist.sh.
Parallel training (Sec. 5.1 in ArcFace) can highly speed up training as well as reduce consumption of GPU memory. Here are some results.
Parallel Method | Float Type | Backbone | GPU | Batch Size | FC Size | Split FC? | Avg. Throughput (images/sec) | Memory (MiB) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
DP | FP32 | iResNet50 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | No | 1099.41 | 8681 |
DDP | FP32 | iResNet50 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | Yes | 1687.71 | 8137 |
DDP | FP16 | iResNet50 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | Yes | 3388.66 | 5629 |
DP | FP32 | iResNet100 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | No | 612.40 | 11825 |
DDP | FP32 | iResNet100 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | Yes | 1060.16 | 10777 |
DDP | FP16 | iResNet100 | v100 x 8 | 512 | 85742 | Yes | 2013.90 | 7319 |
- In practical, one may want to finetune a existing model for either performance boosts or quality-aware ability. This is practicable (verified in our scenario) but requires a few modifications. Here are my recommended steps:
- Generate features from a few samples by existing model and calculate their magnitudes.
- Assume that magnitudes are distributed in
[x1, x2]
, then modify parameters to meetl_a < x1, u_a > x2
. - In our scenario, we have a model trained by ArcFace which produces magnitudes around 1.
[l_a, u_a, l_m, u_m, l_g] =[1, 51, 0.45, 1, 5]
is a good choice.
- Pytorch: FaceX-Zoo from JDAI.
- Pytorch: pt-femb-face-embeddings from Jonas Grebe
