IIM - Crowd Localization

This repo is the official implementation of paper: Learning Independent Instance Maps for Crowd Localization. The code is developed based on C3F.

Progress

• Testing Code (2020.12.10)
• Training Code
  • NWPU (2020.12.14)
  • JHU (2021.01.05)
  • UCF-QNRF (2020.12.30)
  • ShanghaiTech Part A/B (2020.12.29)
  • FDST (2020.12.30)
• scale information for UCF-QNRF and ShanghaiTech Part A/B (2021.01.07)

Getting Started

Preparation

• Prerequisites

  • Python 3.7
  • Pytorch 1.6: http://pytorch.org .
  • other libs in requirements.txt, run pip install -r requirements.txt.

• Code

  • Clone this repo in the directory (Root/IIM):
  • Download the pre-trained HR models from this link. More details are availble at HRNet-Semantic-Segmentation and HRNet-Image-Classification.

• Datasets

  • Download NWPU-Crowd dataset from this link.

  • Unzip *zip files in turns and place images_part* into the same folder (Root/ProcessedData/NWPU/images).

  • Download the processing labels and val gt file from this link. Place them into Root/ProcessedData/NWPU/masks and Root/ProcessedData/NWPU, respectively.

  • If you want to reproduce the results on Shanghai Tech Part A/B , UCF-QNRF, and JHU datasets, you can follow the instructions in DATA.md to setup the datasets.

  • Finally, the folder tree is below:

     |-- hrnetv2_w48_imagenet_pretrained.pth
   -- IIM
     |-- datasets
     |-- misc
     |-- ...

Training

• run python train.py.
• run tensorboard --logdir=exp --port=6006.
• The validtion records are shown as follows:
• The sub images are the input image, GT, prediction map,localization result, and pixel-level threshold, respectively:

Tips: The training process takes ~50 hours on NWPU datasets with two TITAN RTX (48GB Memory).

Testing and Submitting

• Modify some key parameters in test.py:
  • netName.
  • model_path.
• Run python test.py. Then the output file (*_*_test.txt) will be generated, which can be directly submitted to CrowdBenchmark

Visualization on the val set

• Modify some key parameters in test.py:
  • test_list = 'val.txt'
  • netName.
  • model_path.
• Run python test.py. Then the output file (*_*_val.txt) will be generated.
• Modify some key parameters in vis4val.py:
  • pred_file.
• Run python vis4val.py.

Performance
