SSD: Single Shot MultiBox Detector

By Wei Liu, Dragomir Anguelov, Dumitru Erhan, Christian Szegedy, Scott Reed, Cheng-Yang Fu, Alexander C. Berg.

Introduction

SSD is an unified framework for object detection with a single network. You can use the code to train/evaluate a network for object detection task. For more details, please refer to our arXiv paper.

Installation

  1. Get the code. We will call the directory that you cloned Caffe into $CAFFE_ROOT
git clone https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe.git
cd caffe
git checkout ssd
  1. Build the code. Please follow Caffe instruction to install all necessary packages and build it.
# Modify Makefile.config according to your Caffe installation.
cp Makefile.config.example Makefile.config
make -j8
# Make sure to include $CAFFE_ROOT/python to your PYTHONPATH.
make py
make test -j8
make runtest -j8
# If you have multiple GPUs installed in your machine, make runtest might fail. If so, try following:
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0; make runtest -j8
# If you have error: "Check failed: error == cudaSuccess (10 vs. 0)  invalid device ordinal",
# first make sure you have the specified GPUs, or try following if you have multiple GPUs:
unset CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES

Preparation

  1. Download fully convolutional reduced (atrous) VGGNet. By default, we assume the model is stored in $CAFFE_ROOT/models/VGGNet/

  2. Download VOC2007 and VOC2012 dataset. By default, we assume the data is stored in $HOME/data/

# Download the data.
cd $HOME/data
wget http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2012/VOCtrainval_11-May-2012.tar
wget http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2007/VOCtrainval_06-Nov-2007.tar
wget http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2007/VOCtest_06-Nov-2007.tar
# Extract the data.
tar -xvf VOCtrainval_11-May-2012.tar
tar -xvf VOCtrainval_06-Nov-2007.tar
tar -xvf VOCtest_06-Nov-2007.tar
  1. Create the LMDB file.
cd $CAFFE_ROOT
# Create the trainval.txt, test.txt, and test_name_size.txt in data/VOC0712/
./data/VOC0712/create_list.sh
# You can modify the parameters in create_data.sh if needed.
# It will create lmdb files for trainval and test with encoded original image:
#   - $HOME/data/VOCdevkit/VOC0712/lmdb/VOC0712_trainval_lmdb
#   - $HOME/data/VOCdevkit/VOC0712/lmdb/VOC0712_test_lmdb
# and make soft links at examples/VOC0712/
./data/VOC0712/create_data.sh

Train/Eval

  1. Train your model and evaluate the model on the fly.
# It will create model definition files and save snapshot models in:
#   - $CAFFE_ROOT/models/VGGNet/VOC0712/SSD_300x300/
# and job file, log file, and the python script in:
#   - $CAFFE_ROOT/jobs/VGGNet/VOC0712/SSD_300x300/
# and save temporary evaluation results in:
#   - $HOME/data/VOCdevkit/results/VOC2007/SSD_300x300/
# It should reach 72.* mAP at 60k iterations.
python examples/ssd/ssd_pascal.py

If you don't have time to train your model, you can download a pre-trained model at here.

  1. Evaluate the most recent snapshot.
# If you would like to test a model you trained, you can do:
python examples/ssd/score_ssd_pascal.py
  1. Test your model using a webcam. Note: press esc to stop.
# If you would like to attach a webcam to a model you trained, you can do:
python examples/ssd/ssd_pascal_webcam.py

Here is a demo video of running a SSD500 model trained on MSCOCO dataset.

  1. Check out examples/ssd_detect.ipynb or examples/ssd/ssd_detect.cpp on how to detect objects using a SSD model.

  2. To train on other dataset, please refer to data/OTHERDATASET for more details. We currently add support for MSCOCO and ILSVRC2016.

Models

  1. Models trained on VOC0712: SSD300, SSD500

  2. Models trained on MSCOCO trainval35k: SSD300, SSD500

  3. Models trained on ILSVRC2015 trainval1: SSD300, SSD500 (46.4 mAP on val2)
