Train without --masks flag

[noahcao]

Hi,

I tried to train a model without --masks on the default Youtube VIS dataset. I used all parameters as default except for decreasing the num_frames to 18 and num_queries to 180 correspondingly to fit my GPUs. But the loss curves show no model optimization gains as beblow

Thus, I wonder if you have tested training model without --masks flag (namely, box tracking instead of mask tracking) on any datasets? Is the current VisTR class usable (not VisTRsegm)?

thanks!

Hello.I want to ask about that how did you find the dataset annotation file. I counldn't find the corresponding file instance_train_sub.json' or 'instance__val_sub.json' in the Codalab page(https://competitions.codalab.org/competitions/20128#participate-get_data). I only download the image data.But, for annotation file, I just got the test.json or val.json or train.json file. And in those json file, I couldn't fine the annotation information.　Is the website where I downloaded the data set wrong?

Hi @StiphyJay, just use the train.json and val.json file of the 2019 version.

Hi @noahcao I have not tried that.

Hello, please can you help? There is no annotation in the valid.json on the website? How did you evaluate on valid split? https://competitions.codalab.org/competitions/20128#participate-get_data

@noureldien Please refer to Models section in README.

@noahcao Hi, would you were able to do box tracking?

Kind Regards
