• 11-11-2018: Added multi-dataset training; Added cython code for cuhk03-style evaluation; Wrapped dataloader construction to Image/Video-DataManager; Wrapped argparse to args.py; Added MLFN (CVPR'18).

Note: Some changes will be discussed in issues.

1. cd to your preferred directory and run git clone https://github.com/KaiyangZhou/deep-person-reid.
2. Install dependencies by pip install -r requirements.txt (if necessary).
3. To install the cython-based evaluation toolbox, cd to torchreid/eval_cylib and do make. As a result, eval_metrics_cy.so is generated under the same folder. Run python test_cython.py to test if the toolbox is installed successfully. (credit to luzai)

The keys to use these datasets are enclosed in the parentheses. See torchreid/datasets/__init__.py for details. The data managers of image-reid and video-reid are implemented in torchreid/data_manager.py.

Instructions regarding how to prepare and do evaluation on these datasets are provided in DATASETS.md.

Please refer to torchreid/models/__init__.py for the keys to build these models. In the MODEL_ZOO, we provide pretrained model weights and the training scripts to reproduce the results.

• xent: cross entropy loss (the label smoothing regularizer can be enabled by --label-smooth).
• htri: hard mining triplet loss.

Training methods are implemented in

• train_imgreid_xent.py: train image-reid models with cross entropy loss.
• train_imgreid_xent_htri.py: train image-reid models with hard mining triplet loss or the combination of hard mining triplet loss and cross entropy loss.
• train_vidreid_xent.py: train video-reid models with cross entropy loss.
• train_vidreid_xent_htri.py: train video-reid models with hard mining triplet loss or the combination of hard mining triplet loss and cross entropy loss.

Input arguments for the above training scripts are unified in args.py.

To train an image-reid model with cross entropy loss, you can do

python train_imgreid_xent.py \
-s market1501 \ # source dataset for training
-t market1501 \ # target dataset for test
--height 256 \ # image height
--width 128 \ # image width
--optim amsgrad \ # optimizer
--label-smooth \ # label smoothing regularizer
--lr 0.0003 \ # learning rate
--max-epoch 60 \ # maximum epoch to run
--stepsize 20 40 \ # stepsize for learning rate decay
--train-batch-size 32 \
--test-batch-size 100 \
-a resnet50 \ # network architecture
--save-dir log/resnet50-market-xent \ # where to save the log and models
--gpu-devices 0 \ # gpu device index

-s and -t can take different strings (i.e. dataset keys) of arbitrary length (delimited by space). For example, if you wanna train models on Market1501 + DukeMTMC-reID and test on both of them, you can use -s market1501 dukemtmcreid and -t market1501 dukemtmcreid. If say, you wanna test on a different dataset, e.g. MSMT17, then just do -t msmt17. Multi-dataset training is implemented for both image-reid and video-reid. Note that when -t takes multiple datasets, evaluation is performed on each specified dataset individually.

To finetune models pretrained on external large-scale datasets, such as ImageNet, the two-stepped training strategy is recommended. This can be achieved by --fixbase-epoch and --open-layers. The pipeline goes as follows.

First, the base network is frozen and the randomly initialized layers (e.g. identity classification layer) are trained for --fixbase-epoch epochs. Specifically, the layers specified by --open-layers are set to the train mode and will be updated, while other layers are set to the eval mode and are frozen. See open_specified_layers(model, open_layers) in torchreid/utils/torchtools.py.

Second, after the new layers are adapted to the old (well-initialized) layers, all layers are set to the train mode (via open_all_layers(model)) and are trained for --max-epoch epochs.

For example, to train the randomly initialized classifier in resnet50 for 5 epochs before training all layers, do --fixbase-epoch 5 and --open-layers classifier. Note that the layer names must align with the attribute names in the model (in this case, self.classifier exists in the model).

In addition, there is an argument called --always-fixbase. Once activated, the base network will be frozen and only the specified layers with --open-layers will be trained.

htri requires adding --train-sampler RandomIdentitySampler.

For video reid, test-batch-size refers to the number of tracklets, so the real image batch size is --test-batch-size * --seq-len. As the training follows the image-based paradigm, the semantic meaning of train-batch-size does not change.

Use --evaluate to switch to the evaluation mode. In doing so, no model training is performed. For example, say you wanna load pretrained model weights at path_to/resnet50.pth.tar for resnet50 and do evaluation on Market1501, you can do

python train_imgreid_xent.py \
-s market1501 \ # this does not matter any more
-t market1501 \ # you can add more datasets here for the test list
--height 256 \
--width 128 \
--test-batch-size 100 \
--evaluate \
-a resnet50 \
--load-weights path_to/resnet50.pth.tar \
--save-dir log/eval-resnet50 \
--gpu-devices 0 \

Note that --load-weights will discard layer weights in path_to/resnet50.pth.tar that do not match the original model layers in size. If you encounter the UnicodeDecodeError problem when loading the checkpoints downloaded from the model zoo, please try this solution.

Use --eval-freq to control the evaluation frequency and --start-eval to indicate when to start counting the evaluation frequency. This is useful when you want to test the model for every --eval-freq epochs to diagnose the training (the cython evaluation code is really fast, e.g. evaluation on Market1501 can be done in less than 10s).

To visualize the ranked results, you can use --visualize-ranks, which works along with --evaluate. The ranked images will be saved in save_dir/ranked_results/dataset_name where save_dir is the directory you specify with --save-dir. This function is implemented in torchreid/utils/reidtools.py.
