!!!New!!!: add Vortex Pooling[24]

I no longer have GPUs to continue more experiments and model training (I borrowed 2 GPUs from the Institute for Computer Graphics @ TU Braunschweig to complete preliminary experiments, so thank them and Lukas Zhang here.), so if you like, welcome to experiment with other under-training models and my ideas!

Introduction

Semantic Segmentation is a significant part of the modern autonomous driving system, as exact understanding the surrounding scene is very important for the navigation and driving decision of the self-driving car. Nowadays, deep fully convolutional networks (FCNs) have a very significant effect on semantic segmentation, but most of the relevant researchs have focused on improving segmentation accuracy rather than model computation efficiency. However, the autonomous driving system is often based on embedded devices, where computing and storage resources are relatively limited. In this paper we describe several light-weight networks based on MobileNetV2, ShuffleNet and Mixed-scale DenseNet for semantic image segmentation task, Additionally, we introduce GAN for data augmentation[17] (pix2pixHD) concurrent Spatial-Channel Sequeeze & Excitation (SCSE) and Receptive Field Block (RFB) to the proposed network. We measure our performance on Cityscapes pixel-level segmentation, and achieve up to 70.72% class mIoU and 88.27% cat. mIoU. We evaluate the trade-offs between mIoU, and number of operations measured by multiply-add (MAdd), as well as the number of parameters.

Usage

Dependencies

Train

As an example, use the following command to train a LightNet on Cityscapes or Mapillary Vistas Dataset:

> python3 train_mobile.py
> python3 train_mobile_mvd.py 
> python3 train_share.py 
> python3 train_mixscale.py 
> python3 train_shuffle.py 
> python3 train_inplace.py

Evaluation

We take the Cityscapes model trained above as an example.

To evaluate the trained model:

> python3 deploy_model.py
> python3 evaluation_cityscapes.py
> python3 demo_cityscapes.py

Other Options

We also include Mixed-scale DenseNet/RF-Mixed-scale DenseNet, ShuffleNetPlus/RFShuffleNetPlus, SE-DPShuffleNet, SE-Wide-ResNetV2 implementation in this repository.
