keras-video-classifier-web-api
Keras implementation of video classifiers serving as web
The training data is UCF101 - Action Recognition Data Set. Codes are included that will download the UCF101 if they do not exist (due to their large size) in the demo/very_large_data folder. The download utility codes can be found in keras_video_classifier/library/utility/ucf directory
The video classifiers are defined and implemented in the keras_video_classifier/library directory.
By default the classifiers are trained using video files inside the dataset "UCF-101" located in demo/very_large_data (the videos files will be downloaded if not exist during training). However, the classifiers are generic and can be used to train on any other datasets (just change the data_set_name parameter in its fit() method to other dataset name instead of UCF-101 will allow it to be trained on other video datasets)
The opencv-python is used to extract frames from the videos.
Deep Learning Models
The following deep learning models have been implemented and studied:
-
VGG16+LSTM: this approach uses VGG16 to extract features from individual frame of the video, the sequence of frame features are then taken into LSTM recurrent networks for classifier.
- training: demo/vgg16_lstm_train.py
- predictor: demo/vgg16_lstm_predict.py
- training: demo/vgg16_lstm_hi_dim_train.py (VGG16 top not included)
- predictor: demo/vgg16_lstm_hi_dim_predict.py (VGG16 top not included)
-
VGG16+Bidirectional LSTM: this approach uses VGG16 to extract features from individual frame of the video, the sequence of frame features are then taken into bidirectional LSTM recurrent networks for classifier.
- training: demo/vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_train.py
- predictor: demo/vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_predict.py
- training: demo/vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_hi_dim_train.py (VGG16 top not included)
- predictor: demo/vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_hi_dim_predict.py (VGG16 top not included)
-
Convolutional Network: this approach uses stores frames into the "channels" of input of the CNN which then classify the "image" (video frames stacked in the channels)
- training: demo/cnn_train.py
- predictor: demo/cnn_predict.py
The trained models are available in the demo/models/UCF-101 folder (Weight files of two of the trained model are not included as they are too big to upload, they are
- demo/models/UCF-101/vgg16-lstm-hi-dim-weights.h5
- demo/models/UCF-101/vgg16-bidirectional-lstm-hi-dim-weights.h5 )
Usage
Train Deep Learning model
To train a deep learning model, say VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier, run the following commands:
pip install -r requirements.txt
cd demo
python vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_train.py The training code in vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_train.py is quite straightforward and illustrated below:
import numpy as np
from keras import backend as K
from keras_video_classifier.library.recurrent_networks import VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier
from keras_video_classifier.library.utility.plot_utils import plot_and_save_history
from keras_video_classifier.library.utility.ucf.UCF101_loader import load_ucf
K.set_image_dim_ordering('tf')
data_set_name = 'UCF-101'
input_dir_path = './very_large_data'
output_dir_path = './models/' + data_set_name
report_dir_path = './reports/' + data_set_name
np.random.seed(42)
# this line downloads the video files of UCF-101 dataset if they are not available in the very_large_data folder
load_ucf(input_dir_path)
classifier = VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier()
history = classifier.fit(data_dir_path=input_dir_path, model_dir_path=output_dir_path, data_set_name=data_set_name)
plot_and_save_history(history, VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier.model_name,
report_dir_path + '/' + VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier.model_name + '-history.png')
After the training is completed, the trained models will be saved as cf-v1-. in the demo/models.
Predict Video Class Label
To use the trained deep learning model to predict the class label of a video, you can use the following code:
import numpy as np
from keras_video_classifier.library.recurrent_networks import VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier
from keras_video_classifier.library.utility.ucf.UCF101_loader import load_ucf, scan_ucf_with_labels
vgg16_include_top = True
data_set_name = 'UCF-101'
data_dir_path = './very_large_data'
model_dir_path = './models/' + data_set_name
config_file_path = VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier.get_config_file_path(model_dir_path,
vgg16_include_top=vgg16_include_top)
weight_file_path = VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier.get_weight_file_path(model_dir_path,
vgg16_include_top=vgg16_include_top)
np.random.seed(42)
# this line downloads the video files of UCF-101 dataset if they are not available in the very_large_data folder
load_ucf(data_dir_path)
predictor = VGG16BidirectionalLSTMVideoClassifier()
predictor.load_model(config_file_path, weight_file_path)
# scan_ucf returns a dictionary object of (video_file_path, video_class_label) where video_file_path
# is the key and video_class_label is the value
videos = scan_ucf_with_labels(data_dir_path, [label for (label, label_index) in predictor.labels.items()])
video_file_path_list = np.array([file_path for file_path in videos.keys()])
np.random.shuffle(video_file_path_list)
correct_count = 0
count = 0
for video_file_path in video_file_path_list:
label = videos[video_file_path]
predicted_label = predictor.predict(video_file_path)
print('predicted: ' + predicted_label + ' actual: ' + label)
correct_count = correct_count + 1 if label == predicted_label else correct_count
count += 1
accuracy = correct_count / count
print('accuracy: ', accuracy)Below shows the print out of demo/vgg16_bidirectional_lstm_predict.py towards the end of its execution:
