Segmentation of differenct components of a scene using deep learning & Computer Vision. Making uses of multiple modalities of a same scene ( eg: RGB image, Depth Image, NIR etc) gave better results compared to individual modalities.

We used Keras for implementation of Fully convolutional Network (FCN-32s) trained to predict semantically segmented images of forest like images with rgb & nir_color input images.

Do the following steps after you download the dataset before you proceed and train your models.

1. run preprocess/process.sh (renames images)
2. run preprocess/text_file_gen.py (generates txt files for train,val,test used in data generator)
3. run preprocess/aug_gen.py (generates augmented image files beforehand the training, dynamic augmentation in runtime is slow an often hangs the training process)

The Following list describes the files :

Improved Architecture with Augmentation & Dropout

1. late_fusion_improveed.py (late_fusion FCN TRAINING FILE, Augmentation= Yes, Dropout= Yes)
2. late_fusion_improved_predict.py (predict with improved architecture)
3. late_fusion_improved_saved_model.hdf5 (Architecture & weights of improved model)

Old Architecture without Augmentation & Dropout

4. late_fusion_old.py (late_fusion FCN TRAINING FILE, Augmentation= No, Dropout= No)
5. late_fusion_old_predict.py() (predict with old architecture)
6. late_fusion_improved_saved_model.hdf5 (Architecture & weights of old model)

Note:Since the dataset is too small the training will overfit. To overcome this and train a generalized classifier image augmentation is done. Images are transformed geometrically with a combination of transsformations and added to the dataset before training.

Loss : Categorical Cross Entropy

Optimizer : Stochastic gradient descent with lr = 0.008, momentum = 0.9, decay=1e-6
