• Pytorch version 0.4 or higher.

Given a test image, the trained model outputs blobs in the image, then counts the number of predicted blobs (see Figure below).

We test a trained ResNet on a Trancos example image as follows:

python main.py -image_path figures/test.png \
                -model_path checkpoints/best_model_trancos_ResFCN.pth \
                -model_name ResFCN

The expected output is shown below, and the output image will be saved in the same directory as the test image.

Trancos test image	Trancos predicted image

1. Download the checkpoints,

bash checkpoints/download.sh

2. Output the saved results,

python main.py -m summary -e trancos

3. Re-evaluate the saved model,

python main.py -m test -e trancos

To train the model,

python main.py -m train -e trancos
