Guideline

  • Enviroment

    torch==1.8.0
    torchvision==0.9.0
    detectron2==0.5 #Following https://detectron2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/install.html to install it and some required packages
    mmcv==1.3.14

    FurtherMore, install the modified clip package.

    cd third_party/CLIP
    python -m pip install -Ue .
  • Data Preparation

    In our experiments, four datasets are used. For Cityscapes and ADE20k, follow the tutorial in MaskFormer.

  • For COCO Stuff 164k:

    • Download data from the offical dataset website and extract it like below.

    • Format the data to detecttron2 style and split it into Seen (Base) subset and Unseen (Novel) subset.

  • Training and Evaluation

    Before training and evaluation, see the tutorial in detectron2. For example, to training a zero shot semantic segmentation model on COCO Stuff:

  • Training with manually designed prompts:

    python train_net.py --config-file configs/coco-stuff-164k-156/zero_shot_maskformer_R101c_single_prompt_bs32_60k.yaml
    
  • Training with learned prompts:

    # Training prompts
    python train_net.py --config-file configs/coco-stuff-164k-156/zero_shot_proposal_classification_learn_prompt_bs32_10k.yaml --num-gpus 8 
    # Training seg model
    python train_net.py --config-file configs/coco-stuff-164k-156/zero_shot_maskformer_R101c_bs32_60k.yaml --num-gpus 8 MODEL.CLIP_ADAPTER.PROMPT_CHECKPOINT ${TRAINED_PROMPTS}

    Note: the prompts training will be affected by the random seed. It is better to run it multiple times.

    For evaluation, add --eval-only flag to the traing command.
