- The preprocessed CoNLL format files are provided in this repo. For each tweet, the first line is its image id, and the following lines are its textual contents.
- Step 1:Download each tweet's associated images via this link (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PpvvncnQkgDNeBMKVgG2zFYuRhbL873g/view)
- Step 2: Change the image path in line 552 and line 554 of the "run_mtmner_crf.py" file
- Step 3: Download the pre-trained ResNet-152 via this link (https://download.pytorch.org/models/resnet152-b121ed2d.pth)
- Setp 4: Put the pre-trained ResNet-152 model under the folder named "resnet"
- PyTorch 1.0.0
- Python 3.7
- This is the training code of tuning parameters on the dev set, and testing on the test set. Note that you can change "CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=2" based on your available GPUs.
sh run_mtmner_crf.sh
- We show our running logs on twitter-2015 and twitter-2017 in the folder "log files". Note that the results are a little bit lower than the results reported in our paper, since the experiments were run on different servers.
- Using these two datasets means you have read and accepted the copyrights set by Twitter and dataset providers.
