This code repository contains an implementation of our ECCV video detection work. If you use this code, please cite:

Video Object Detection with an Aligned Spatial-Temporal Memory, Fanyi Xiao and Yong Jae Lee in ECCV 2018. [Bibtex]

Getting Started

Installation

The following installation procedure is tested under:

Ubuntu 16.04
CUDA 9.0
Torch 7
  • Create a directory that we call $ROOT (here we set $ROOT as ~/code/VID for example):
mkdir ~/code/VID
  • Go to $ROOT and clone this repo. You should see $ROOT/STMN after this command.
cd $ROOT
git clone https://github.com/fanyix/STMN.git
  • Download ImageNet VID dataset (ILSVRC 2015) and unzip it under $ROOT/dataset/ImageNetVID. Note that you need to download both ILSVRC2015_VID_initial.tar.gz and ILSVRC2015_VID_final.tar.gz. As a sanity check, you should be able to see train, val and test under $ROOT/dataset/ImageNetVID/Data/VID/.

  • Create $ROOT/dataset/ImageNetVID/exp. Download the annotations and the proposals into this directory.

  • Create $ROOT/dataset/ImageNetVID/models. Download pre-trained models into this directory. Specifically, here are some models you might want to use: 1) The first one is our pre-trained STMN model. 2) The second one is the pre-trained RFCN model. 3) You also need the ImageNet classification pre-trained ResNet-101 model.

  • Download ImageNet DET dataset into $ROOT/dataset/ImageNetDET. Then download from here the proposal and annotation files we prepared, and unzip it into the ImageNet DET directory.

After these steps, you should be expecting a code/data structure like the following:

$ROOT
  - STMN
  - dataset
    - ImageNetVID
      - Data
        - VID
          - train
          - val
          - test
      - exp
        - anno
          - train.t7
          - val.t7
          - test.t7
        - proposals
          - train
          - val
          - test
      - models
        - stmn.t7
        - rfcn.t7
        - resnet-101.t7
    - ImageNetDET
      - Annotations
      - ImageSets
      - Data
        - DET
          - train
          - val
      - exp
        - annotations
        - proposals
  • Install Lua Torch following the instructions on
http://torch.ch/docs/getting-started.html#_

Note if you are using CUDA 9.0, you probably need this to solve a compilation issue regarding half precision operation.

  • Install necessary libraries for Torch
luarocks install torchnet
luarocks install optnet
luarocks install inn
luarocks install class
  • Install hdf5 for Torch
sudo apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev hdf5-tools
git clone https://github.com/deepmind/torch-hdf5
cd torch-hdf5
luarocks make hdf5-0-0.rockspec LIBHDF5_LIBDIR="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/"
  • Install matio for Torch
sudo apt-get install libmatio2
luarocks install matio
  • Install utilities for R-FCN, MatchTrans and STN modules
cd $ROOT/STMN/modules/rfcn
luarocks make rfcn-0.1-0.rockspec

cd $ROOT/STMN/modules/assemble
luarocks make assemble-0.1-0.rockspec

cd $ROOT/STMN/modules/stnbhwd
luarocks make stnbhwd-scm-1.rockspec
  • Install Lua API for COCO dataset
cd $ROOT/STMN/external/coco
luarocks make LuaAPI/rocks/coco-scm-1.rockspec
  • [Optional] Install the temporal linkage code modified from D&T (MATLAB required). Note you will need this if you want to reproduce our results on ImageNet VID. Go to $ROOT/STMN/external/dp and run rfcn_build.m in MATLAB.

  • [Optional] Finally, it seems CUDNN 7.0 is not working well with CUDA 9.0 for Torch, the following GitHub issue solves this problem: soumith/cudnn.torch#383

Training models

  • To train an RFCN model, go to $ROOT/STMN and run the following (we use 2 V100 GPUs for training):
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 th train_video.lua -model rfcn -ckpt rfcn
  • To train an STMN model, go to $ROOT/STMN and run the following:
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 th train_video.lua -model stmn -ckpt stmn

Evaluating models

  • To generate detections with the pre-trained RFCN model, go to $ROOT/STMN/scripts and run the following:
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 th eval_detect_full.lua -model rfcn -model_path ../../dataset/ImageNetVID/models/rfcn.t7 -ckpt rfcn_eval
  • To generate detections with the pre-trained STMN model, go to $ROOT/STMN/scripts and run the following:
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 th eval_detect_full.lua -model stmn -model_path ../../dataset/ImageNetVID/models/stmn.t7 -ckpt stmn_eval

Please note that above commands are examples following which you can reproduce our results, however it will be slow due to the sheer amount of frames you need to evaluate. Instead in our own experiments we always parallelize the above procedure with the help of the launch script provided in scripts/launcher.py. We highly encourage you to take a look at this script and parallelize this procedure like we do.

Okay, after you're done with both commands shown above, you should have produced the raw detection results (without NMS) which we will then send to the temporal linkage procedure to generate our final detections. For this, we base our code on the brilliant code of D&T (however it does require a MATLAB license to use this code) and make some modifications to only use its dynamic programming functionality.

  • To generate final detections with temporal linkage, go to $ROOT/STMN/external/dp, run run_dp.m in MATLAB.

[Optional] Again, you will reproduce our results (80.5% mAP) with the above command, however it might be slow to go over the evaluation set. To assist you in this process, we also provide some parallelization utilities in run_dp.m and a launch script launcher.py under $ROOT/STMN/external/dp (note this is a different launch script than the one we used above under $ROOT/STMN/scripts/). Specifically, you first set the opts.scan_det in run_dp.m to true and launch it with $ROOT/STMN/external/dp/launcher.py. Then you set opts.scan_det in run_dp.m to false and opts.load_scan_det to true and run the script again in a MATLAB console.

We develop this codebase from the great code of multipathnet.
