This project inherits the property of our pytorch implementation of faster r-cnn. Hence, it also has the following unique features:
-
It is pure Pytorch code. We convert all the numpy implementations to pytorch.
-
It supports trainig batchsize > 1. We revise all the layers, including dataloader, rpn, roi-pooling, etc., to train with multiple images at each iteration.
-
It supports multiple GPUs. We use a multiple GPU wrapper (nn.DataParallel here) to make it flexible to use one or more GPUs, as a merit of the above two features.
-
It supports three pooling methods. We integrate three pooling methods: roi pooing, roi align and roi crop. Besides, we convert them to support multi-image batch training.
The dataset can be downloaded from following link dataset
We benchmark our code thoroughly on three datasets: pascal voc, coco. Below are the results:
1). PASCAL VOC 2007 (Train/Test: 07trainval/07test, scale=600, ROI Align)

Results on coco are on the way.
