Object Keypoint Similarity

HRNet for Fashion Landmark Estimation

(Modified from deep-high-resolution-net.pytorch)

Introduction

This code applies the HRNet (Deep High-Resolution Representation Learning for Human Pose Estimation) onto fashion landmark estimation task using the DeepFashion2 dataset. HRNet maintains high-resolution representations throughout the forward path. As a result, the predicted keypoint heatmap is potentially more accurate and spatially more precise.

Please note that every image in DeepFashion2 contains multiple fashion items, while our model assumes that there exists only one item in each image. Therefore, what we feed into the HRNet is not the original image but the cropped ones provided by a detector. In experiments, one can either use the ground truth bounding box annotation to generate the input data or use the output of a detecter (you can try this clothing detector).

Main Results

Quick start

Installation

Install pytorch >= v1.2 following official instruction. Note that if you use pytorch's version < v1.0.0, you should follow the instruction at https://github.com/Microsoft/human-pose-estimation.pytorch to disable cudnn's implementations of BatchNorm layer. We encourage you to use higher pytorch's version(>=v1.0.0)
Clone this repo, and we'll call the directory that you cloned as ${POSE_ROOT}.
Install dependencies:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Make libs:
```
cd ${POSE_ROOT}/lib
make
```

Init output(training model output directory) and log(tensorboard log directory) directory:

mkdir output 
mkdir log

Your directory tree should look like this:

${POSE_ROOT}
|-- lib
|-- tools 
|-- experiments
|-- models
|-- data
|-- log
|-- output
|-- README.md
`-- requirements.txt

Data preparation

Our experiments were conducted on DeepFashion2, clone this repo, and we'll call the directory that you cloned as ${DF2_ROOT}.

1) Download the dataset

Extract the dataset under ${POSE_ROOT}/data.

2) Convert annotations into coco-type

The above code repo provides a script to convert annotations into coco-type.

We uploaded our converted annotation file onto OneDrive named as train/val-coco_style.json. We also made truncated json files such as train-coco_style-32.json meaning the first 32 samples in the dataset to save the loading time during development period.

3) Install the deepfashion_api

Enter ${DF2_ROOT}/deepfashion2_api/PythonAPI and run

python setup.py install

Note that the deepfashion2_api is modified from the cocoapi without changing the package name. Therefore, conflicts occur if you try to install this package when you have installed the original cocoapi in your computer. We provide two feasible solutions: 1) run our code in a virtualenv 2) use the deepfashion2_api as a local pacakge. Also note that deepfashion2_api is different with cocoapi mainly in the number of classes and the values of standard variations for keypoints.

At last the directory should look like this:

${POSE_ROOT}
|-- data
`-- |-- deepfashion2
    `-- |-- train
        |   |-- image
        |   |-- annos                           (raw annotation)
        |   |-- train-coco_style.json           (converted annotation file)
        |   `-- train-coco_style-32.json      (truncated for fast debugging)
        |-- validation
        |   |-- image
        |   |-- annos                           (raw annotation)
        |   |-- val-coco_style.json             (converted annotation file)
        |   `-- val-coco_style-64.json        (truncated for fast debugging)
        `-- json_for_test
            `-- keypoints_test_information.json

Discussion

Experiment Configuration

For the regression target of keypoint heatmaps, we tuned the standard deviation value sigma and finally set it to 2.
During training, we found that the data augmentation from the original code was too intensive which makes the training process unstable. We weakened the augmentation parameters and observed performance gain.
Due to the imbalance of classes in DeepFashion2 dataset, the model's performance on different classes varies a lot. Therefore, we adopted a weighted sampling strategy rather than the naive random shuffling strategy, and observed performance gain.
We expermented with the value of weight decay, and found that either 1e-4 or 1e-5 harms the performance. Therefore, we simply set weight decay to 0.
