This repository contains the models and the evaluation scripts (in Python3 and Pytorch 1.0+) of the papers:
[1] End-to-end Learning of Deep Visual Representations for Image Retrieval Albert Gordo, Jon Almazan, Jerome Revaud, Diane Larlus, IJCV 2017 [PDF]
[2] Learning with Average Precision: Training Image Retrieval with a Listwise Loss Jerome Revaud, Jon Almazan, Rafael S. Rezende, Cesar de Souza, ICCV 2019 [PDF]
Both papers tackle the problem of image retrieval and explore different ways to learn deep visual representations for this task. In both cases, a CNN is used to extract a feature map that is aggregated into a compact, fixed-length representation by a global-aggregation layer*. Finally, this representation is first projected using a FC layer, and L2 normalized so images can be efficiently compared with the dot product.
All components in this network, including the aggregation layer, are differentiable, which makes it end-to-end trainable for the end task. In [1], a Siamese architecture that combines three streams with a triplet loss was proposed to train this network. In [2], this work was extended by replacing the triplet loss with a new loss that directly optimizes for Average Precision.
* Originally, [1] used R-MAC pooling [3] as the global-aggregation layer. However, due to its efficiency and better performace we have replaced the R-MAC pooling layer with the Generalized-mean pooling layer (GeM) proposed in [4]. You can find the original implementation of [1] in Caffe following this link.

The table below contains the pre-trained models that we provide with this library, together with their mAP performance on some of the most well-know image retrieval benchmakrs: Oxford5K, Paris6K, and their Revisited versions (ROxford5K and RParis6K).
| Model | Oxford5K | Paris6K | ROxford5K (med/hard) | RParis6K (med/hard) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resnet101-TL-MAC | 85.6 | 90.1 | 63.3 / 35.7 | 76.6 / 55.5 |
| Resnet101-TL-GeM | 85.7 | 93.4 | 64.5 / 40.9 | 78.8 / 59.2 |
| Resnet50-AP-GeM | 87.7 | 91.9 | 65.5 / 41.0 | 77.6 / 57.1 |
| Resnet101-AP-GeM | 89.1 | 93.0 | 67.1 / 42.3 | 80.3/60.9 |
| Resnet101-AP-GeM-LM18** | 88.1 | 93.1 | 66.3 / 42.5 | 80.2 / 60.8 |
The name of the model encodes the backbone architecture of the network and the loss that has been used to train it (TL for triplet loss and AP for Average Precision loss). All models use Generalized-mean pooling (GeM) [3] as the global pooling mechanism, except for the model in the first row that uses MAC [3] (i.e. max-pooling), and have been trained on the Landmarks-clean [1] dataset (the clean version of the Landmarks dataset) directly fine-tuning from ImageNet. These numbers have been obtained using a single resolution and applying whitening to the output features (which has also been learned on Landmarks-clean). For a detailed explanation of all the hyper-parameters see [1] and [2] for the triplet loss and AP loss models, respectively.
** For the sake of completeness, we have added an extra model, Resnet101-AP-LM18, which has been trained on the Google-Landmarks Dataset, a large dataset consisting of more than 1M images and 15K classes.
The script test_dir.py can be used to evaluate the pre-trained models provided and to reproduce the results above:
python -m dirtorch.test_dir --dataset DATASET --checkpoint PATH_TO_MODEL \
[--whiten DATASET] [--whitenp POWER] [--aqe ALPHA-QEXP] \
[--trfs TRANSFORMS] [--gpu ID] [...]
--dataset: selects the dataset (eg.: Oxford5K, Paris6K, ROxford5K, RParis6K) [required]--checkpoint: path to the model weights [required]--whiten: applies whitening to the output features [default 'Landmarks_clean']--whitenp: whitening power [default: 0.25]--aqe: alpha-query expansion parameters [default: None]--trfs: input image transformations (can be used to apply multi-scale) [default: None]--gpu: selects the GPU ID (-1 selects the CPU)
For example, to reproduce the results of the Resnet101-AP_loss model on the RParis6K dataset download the model Resnet-101-AP-GeM.pt from here and run:
cd $DIR_ROOT
export DB_ROOT=/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASETS
python -m dirtorch.test_dir --dataset RParis6K \
--checkpoint dirtorch/data/Resnet101-AP-GeM.pt \
--whiten Landmarks_clean --whitenp 0.25 --gpu 0
And you should see the following output:
>> Evaluation...
* mAP-easy = 0.907568
* mAP-medium = 0.803098
* mAP-hard = 0.608556
Note: this script integrates an automatic downloader for the Oxford5K, Paris6K, ROxford5K, and RParis6K datasets (kudos to Filip Radenovic ;)). The datasets will be saved in $DB_ROOT.
You can also use the pre-trained models to extract features from your own datasets or collection of images. For that we provide the script feature_extractor.py:
python -m dirtorch.extract_features --dataset DATASET --checkpoint PATH_TO_MODEL \
--output PATH_TO_FILE [--whiten DATASET] [--whitenp POWER] \
[--trfs TRANSFORMS] [--gpu ID] [...]
where --output is used to specify the destination where the features will be saved. The rest of the parameters are the same as seen above.
For example, this is how the script can be used to extract a feature representation for each one of the images in the RParis6K dataset using the Resnet-101-AP-GeM.pt model, and storing them in rparis6k_features.npy:
cd $DIR_ROOT
export DB_ROOT=/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASETS
python -m dirtorch.extract_features --dataset RParis6K \
--checkpoint dirtorch/data/Resnet101-AP-GeM.pt \
--output rparis6k_features.npy \
--whiten Landmarks_clean --whitenp 0.25 --gpu 0
The library also provides a generic class dataset (ImageList) that allows you to specify the list of images by providing a simple text file.
--dataset 'ImageList("PATH_TO_TEXTFILE" [, "IMAGES_ROOT"])'
Each row of the text file should contain a single path to a given image:
/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASET/images/image1.jpg
/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASET/images/image2.jpg
/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASET/images/image3.jpg
/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASET/images/image4.jpg
/PATH/TO/YOUR/DATASET/images/image5.jpg
Alternatively, you can also use relative paths, and use IMAGES_ROOT to specify the root folder.
