Code

Requirement

Python 3.5
Tensorflow 1.8
PyDenseCRF

Setup

Partial coda and data preparation are borrowed from TF-phrasecut-public. Please follow their instructions to make your setup ready. DeepLab backbone network is based on TF-deeplab as well as the pretrained model for initializing weights of our model.
