IJCAI 2019 Paper

This project is based on Detectron.

Introduction

PPS is an end-to-end part power set model with multi-scale features, which captures the discriminative parts of pedestrians from global to local, and from coarse to fine, enabling part-based scale-free person re-ID. In particular, PPS first factorize the visual appearance by enumerating $k$-combinations for all $k$ of $n$ body parts to exploit rich global and partial information to learn discriminative feature maps. Then, a combination ranking module is introduced to guide the model training with all combinations of body parts, which alternates between ranking combinations and estimating an appearance model. To enable scale-free input, we further exploit the pyramid architecture of deep networks to construct multi-scale feature maps with a feasible amount of extra cost in term of memory and time.

Installation

Requirements:

NVIDIA GPU, Linux, Python2
Caffe2 in pytorch v1.0.1, various standard Python packages, and the COCO API; Instructions for installing these dependencies are found below

Caffe2

Clone the pytorch repository:

# pytorch=/path/to/clone/pytorch
git clone https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch.git $pytorch
cd $pytorch
git checkout v1.0.1
git submodule update --init --recursive

Install Python dependencies:

pip install -r $pytorch/requirements.txt

Build caffe2:

cd $pytorch && mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake ..
sudo make install

Other Dependencies

Install the COCO API:

# COCOAPI=/path/to/clone/cocoapi
git clone https://github.com/cocodataset/cocoapi.git $COCOAPI
cd $COCOAPI/PythonAPI
# Install into global site-packages
make install
# Alternatively, if you do not have permissions or prefer
# not to install the COCO API into global site-packages
python setup.py install --user

Note that instructions like # COCOAPI=/path/to/install/cocoapi indicate that you should pick a path where you'd like to have the software cloned and then set an environment variable (COCOAPI in this case) accordingly.

Install the pycococreator:

pip install git+git://github.com/waspinator/[email protected]

PPS

Clone the PPS repository:

# PPS=/path/to/clone/PPS
git clone https://github.com/shenyunhang/PPS.git $PPS
cd $PPS

Install Python dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Set up Python modules:

make

Build the custom operators library:

mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-isystem $pytorch/third_party/eigen -isystem $/pytorch/third_party/cub"
make

Dataset Preparation

Please follow this to transform the original datasets (Market1501, DukeMTMC-reID and CUHK03) to PCB format.

After that, we assume that your dataset copy at ~/Dataset has the following directory structure:

market1501
|_ images
|  |_ <im-1-name>.jpg
|  |_ ...
|  |_ <im-N-name>.jpg
|_ partitions.pkl
|_ train_test_split.pkl
|_ ...
duke
|_ images
|  |_ <im-1-name>.jpg
|  |_ ...
|  |_ <im-N-name>.jpg
|_ partitions.pkl
|_ train_test_split.pkl
|_ ...
cuhk03
|_ detected
|  |_ images
|     |_ <im-1-name>.jpg
|     |_ ...
|     |_ <im-N-name>.jpg
|  |_ partitions.pkl
|_ labeled
|  |_ images
|     |_ <im-1-name>.jpg
|     |_ ...
|     |_ <im-N-name>.jpg
|     |_ partitions.pkl
|_ re_ranking_train_test_split.pkl
|_ ...
...

Generate the COCO Json files, which is used in Detectron:

cd $PPS
python tools/bpm_to_coco.py

You may need to modify the paths of datasets in tools/bpm_to_coco.py if you put datasets in different locations.

After that, check that you have trainval.json and test.json for each datatset in their corresponding locations.

Create symlinks：

cd $PPS/detectron/datasets/data/
ln -s ~/Dataset/market1501 market1501
ln -s ~/Dataset/duke duke
ln -s ~/Dataset/cuhk03 cuhk03

Model Preparation

Download ResNet50 model (ResNet-50-model.caffemodel and ResNet-50-deploy.prototxt) from this link

cd $PPS
mkdir -p ~/Dataset/model
python tools/pickle_caffe_blobs_keep_bn.py --prototxt /path/to/ResNet-50-deploy.prototxt --caffemodel /path/to/ResNet-50-model.caffemodel --output ~/Dataset/model/R-50_BN.pkl

Noted that this requires to instal caffe1 separately, as caffe1 specific proto is removed in pytorch v1.0.1. See this.

You can download what I have transformed for the project from this link.

You may also need to modify the below config files to point TRAINING.WEIGHTS to R-50_BN.pkl.
