Potential Batch Norm Architecture Bug for Encoder-Decoder #181

I am looking at your implementation of Encoder-Decoder and it seems to be that the Batch Norm is before the Relu, which was mentioned in the paper:

https://github.com/GeorgeSeif/Semantic-Segmentation-Suite/blob/master/models/Encoder_Decoder.py

Would you know if the difference of placing the Batch Norm before or after Relu matter at all when we are both training and inferencing? I only noticed this because I was trying to switch the is_training param on Batch Norm to be False for inferencing, but I'm getting poor results with the entire output encoding giving out very large values for the classes (~1e13). This issue may be related to what was described in https://github.com/GeorgeSeif/Semantic-Segmentation-Suite/issues/138

I just want to add to this a bit. I just found out that there may be a crucial step missing from train.py that inhibits Batch Norm from working. I used this snippet to take a look at the moving mean and variance values, and with the default code the mean and variance did not change.

        '''
        subgraph_name = 'BatchNorm'#'resnet_v2_50/conv1'
        layer_node_names = ['beta','moving_mean','moving_variance']

        with sess.as_default():
            with tf.variable_scope(subgraph_name) as scope:
                tf.get_variable_scope().reuse_variables()

                for name in layer_node_names:
                    vals = tf.get_variable(name)
                    #print(weights)
                    w = np.array(tf.convert_to_tensor(vals).eval())
                    print('\n\n'+subgraph_name+'/'+name+':')
                    print(w)
        '''

This is an example output I got from training:

May someone please confirm these findings? Going back to the Batch Norm doc (I'm using tf contrib, as I couldn't find anything for slim Batch Norm), it looks like there's something we need to add for changing the values for Batch Norm as noted here:

  update_ops = tf.get_collection(tf.GraphKeys.UPDATE_OPS)
  with tf.control_dependencies(update_ops):
    train_op = optimizer.minimize(loss)

I have the same problem about the batch norm in the code.
