Hand Segmentation in Third-Person Point of View

• The code is modified from CSAILVision GitHub Repository.
• EgoHands dataset is utilised to train this neural network.
• ROS node for this module can be found here, and it is implemented in this paper.
• GTX 1080 is used to train the network whereas the inference is running on GTX 1060.

Network Architecture

Pyramid Scene Parsing Network (PSPNet) is implemented to train the model. This paper can be found in this link.

Pretrained Model

Download the pretrained model from Google Drive and place the model in ckpt/egohands-resnet50dilated-ppm_deepsup

Quick Start: Running Inference

1. Simple Demo

python3 run_inference.py --cfg config/egohands-resnet50dilated-ppm_deepsup.yaml --visualise

2. To change resolution

python3 run_inference.py --cfg config/egohands-resnet50dilated-ppm_deepsup.yaml \
                         --resolution 720p --visualise

Offline Testing

1. Generate an annotation file

python3 generate_odgt.py --folder [FOLDER] --out testing.odgt

2. To test on a folder of images

python3 test.py --cfg config/egohands-resnet50dilated-ppm_deepsup.yaml
