iq-dota-obb-use-case

This use case is a study of oriented object detection performance degradation when the input images are compressed. Paper availabe here.

---

To reproduce the experiments:

1. git clone [email protected]:iqf/iq-dota-obb-use-case
2. cd iq-dota-obb-use-case
3. Then build the docker image with make build. This will also download the dataset and reformat it.
4. In order to execute the experiments:
   • make dockershell (*)
   • Inside the docker terminal execute ./iqf-usecase.py the correct python is already set as shebang.
5. Start the mlflow server by doing make mlflow (*)
6. Notebook examples can be launched and executed by make notebookshell NB_PORT=[your_port]" (**)
7. To access the notebook from your browser in your local machine you can do:
   • If the executions are launched in a server, make a tunnel from your local machine. ssh -N -f -L localhost:[your_port]:localhost:[your_port] [remote_user]@[remote_ip] Otherwise skip this step.
   • Then, in your browser, access: localhost:[your_port]/?token=IQF

Notes

• The results of the IQF experiment can be seen in the MLflow user interface.
• For more information please check the IQF_expriment.ipynb or IQF_experiment.py.
• There are also examples of dataset Sanity check and Stats in SateAirportsStats.ipynb
• The default ports are 8888 for the notebookshell, 5000 for the mlflow and 9197 for the dockershell
• (*) Additional optional arguments can be added. The dataset location is:

  DS_VOLUME=[path_to_your_dataset]

• To change the default port for the mlflow service:

  MLF_PORT=[your_port]

• (**) To change the default port for the notebook:

  NB_PORT=[your_port]

• A terminal can also be launched by make dockershell with optional arguments such as (*)
• (***) Depending on the version of your cuda drivers and your hardware you might need to change the version of pytorch which is in the Dockerfile where it says:

  pip3 install torch==1.7.0+cu110 torchvision==0.8.1+cu110 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html.
