This is the official repository for our recent work: PIDNet (PDF

Highlights

overview-of-our-method
Comparison of inference speed and accuracy for real-time models on test set of Cityscapes.

  • Towards Real-time Applications: PIDNet could be directly used for the real-time applications, such as autonomous vehicle and medical imaging.
  • A Novel Three-branch Network: Addtional boundary branch is introduced to two-branch network to mimic the PID controller architecture and remedy the overshoot issue of previous models.
  • More Accurate and Faster: PIDNet-S presents 78.6% mIOU with speed of 93.2 FPS on Cityscapes test set and 80.1% mIOU with speed of 153.7 FPS on CamVid test set. Also, PIDNet-L becomes the most accurate one (80.6% mIOU) among all the real-time networks for Cityscapes.

Overview

overview-of-our-method
An overview of the basic architecture of our proposed Proportional-Integral-Derivative Network (PIDNet).

P, I and D branches are responsiable for detail preservation, context embedding and boundary detection, respectively.

Detailed Implementation

overview-of-our-method
Instantiation of the PIDNet for semantic segmentation.

For operation, "OP, N, C" means operation OP with stride of N and the No. output channel is C; Output: output size given input size of 1024; mxRB: m residual basic blocks; 2xRBB: 2 residual bottleneck blocks; OP1\OP2: OP1 is used for PIDNet-L while OP1 is applied in PIDNet-M and PIDNet-S. (m,n,C) are scheduled to be (2,3,32), (2,3,64) and (3,4,64) for PIDNet-S, PIDNet-M and PIDNet-L, respectively.

Models

For simple reproduction, we provide the ImageNet pretrained models here.

Also, the finetuned models on Cityscapes and Camvid are available for direct application in road scene parsing.

Model (Cityscapes) Val (% mIOU) Test (% mIOU) FPS
PIDNet-S 78.8 78.6 93.2
PIDNet-M 79.9 79.8 42.2
PIDNet-L 80.9 80.6 31.1
Model (CamVid) Val (% mIOU) Test (% mIOU) FPS
PIDNet-S - 80.1 153.7
PIDNet-M - 82.0 85.6

Prerequisites

This implementation is based on HRNet-Semantic-Segmentation. Please refer to their repository for installation and dataset preparation. The inference speed is tested on single RTX 3090 using the method introduced by SwiftNet. No third-party acceleration lib is used, so you can try TensorRT or other approaches for faster speed.

Usage

0. Prepare the dataset

  • Download the Cityscapes and CamVid datasets and unzip them in data/cityscapes and data/camvid dirs.
  • Check if the paths contained in lists of data/list are correct for dataset images.

😺 Instruction for preparation of CamVid data (remains discussion) 😺

  • Download the images and annotations from Kaggle, where the resolution of images is 960x720 (original);
  • Unzip the data and put all the images and all the colored labels into data/camvid/images/ and data/camvid/labels, respectively;
  • Following the split of train, val and test sets used in SegNet-Tutorial, we have generated the dataset lists in data/list/camvid/;
  • Finished!!! (We have open an issue for everyone who's interested in CamVid to discuss where to download the data and if the split in SegNet-Tutorial is correct. BTW, do not directly use the split in Kaggle, which is wrong and will lead to unnormal high accuracy. We have revised the CamVid content in the paper and you will see the correct results after its announcement.)

1. Training

  • Download the ImageNet pretrained models and put them into pretrained_models/imagenet/ dir.
  • For example, train the PIDNet-S on Cityscapes with batch size of 12 on 2 GPUs:
python tools/train.py --cfg configs/cityscapes/pidnet_small_cityscapes.yaml GPUS (0,1) TRAIN.BATCH_SIZE_PER_GPU 6
  • Or train the PIDNet-L on Cityscapes using train and val sets simultaneously with batch size of 12 on 4 GPUs:
python tools/train.py --cfg configs/cityscapes/pidnet_large_cityscapes_trainval.yaml GPUS (0,1,2,3) TRAIN.BATCH_SIZE_PER_GPU 3

2. Evaluation

  • Download the finetuned models for Cityscapes and CamVid and put them into pretrained_models/cityscapes/ and pretrained_models/camvid/ dirs, respectively.
  • For example, evaluate the PIDNet-S on Cityscapes val set:
python tools/eval.py --cfg configs/cityscapes/pidnet_small_cityscapes.yaml \
                          TEST.MODEL_FILE pretrained_models/cityscapes/PIDNet_S_Cityscapes_val.pt
  • Or, evaluate the PIDNet-M on CamVid test set:
python tools/eval.py --cfg configs/camvid/pidnet_medium_camvid.yaml \
                          TEST.MODEL_FILE pretrained_models/camvid/PIDNet_M_Camvid_Test.pt \
                          DATASET.TEST_SET list/camvid/test.lst
  • Generate the testing results of PIDNet-L on Cityscapes test set:
python tools/eval.py --cfg configs/cityscapes/pidnet_large_cityscapes_trainval.yaml \
                          TEST.MODEL_FILE pretrained_models/cityscapes/PIDNet_L_Cityscapes_test.pt \
                          DATASET.TEST_SET list/cityscapes/test.lst

3. Speed Measurement

  • Measure the inference speed of PIDNet-S for Cityscapes:
python models/speed/pidnet_speed.py --a 'pidnet-s' --c 19 --r 1024 2048
  • Measure the inference speed of PIDNet-M for CamVid:
python models/speed/pidnet_speed.py --a 'pidnet-m' --c 11 --r 720 960

4. Custom Inputs

  • Put all your images in samples/ and then run the command below using Cityscapes pretrained PIDNet-L for image format of .png:
python tools/custom.py --a 'pidnet-l' --p '../pretrained_models/cityscapes/PIDNet_L_Cityscapes_test.pt' --t '.png'
