Overview
We provide instructions for data preparation and shape optimization on three types of data,
- Spot: Synthetic rendering of 3D meshes for debugging and evaluation
- DAVIS-camsl: Video frames with ground-truth segmentation masks
- Pika: Your own video
We recomend first trying spot and make sure the system works, and then run the rest two examples.
Data preparation
Create folders to store intermediate data and training logs
mkdir log; mkdir tmp;
The following steps generates data in subfolders under ./database/DAVIS/
.
Spot: synthetic data
Download and unzip the pre-computed {silhouette, flow, rgb} rendering of spot,
```
gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=11Y3WQ0Qd7W-6Wds1_A7KsTbaG7jrmG7N -O spot.zip
unzip spot.zip -d database/DAVIS/
```
Otherwise, you could render the same data locally by running,
```
python scripts/render_syn.py
```
DAVIS-camel: real video frames with segmentation
First, download [DAVIS 2017 trainval set](https://data.vision.ee.ethz.ch/csergi/share/davis/DAVIS-2017-trainval-Full-Resolution.zip) and
copy `JPEGImages/Full-Resolution` and `Annotations/Full-Resolution` folders of *DAVIS-camel* into the according folders in `database`.
```
cp ...davis-path/DAVIS/Annotations/Full-Resolution/camel/ -rf database/DAVIS/Annotations/Full-Resolution/
cp ...davis-path/DAVIS-lasr/DAVIS/JPEGImages/Full-Resolution/camel/ -rf database/DAVIS/JPEGImages/Full-Resolution/
```
Then download pre-trained VCN optical flow:
```
mkdir ./lasr_vcn
gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=139S6pplPvMTB-_giI6V2dxpOHGqqAdHn -O ./lasr_vcn/vcn_rob.pth
```
Run VCN-robust to predict optical flow on DAVIS camel video:
```
bash preprocess/auto_gen.sh camel
```
Pika: your own video
You will need to install and clone [detectron2](https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2) to obtain object segmentations as instructed below.
```
python -m pip install detectron2 -f \
https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/detectron2/wheels/cu110/torch1.7/index.html
git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2
```
First, use any video processing tool (such as ffmpeg) to extract frames into `JPEGImages/Full-Resolution/name-of-the-video`.
```
mkdir database/DAVIS/JPEGImages/Full-Resolution/pika-tmp/
ffmpeg -ss 00:00:04 -i database/raw/IMG-7495.MOV -vf fps=10 database/DAVIS/JPEGImages/Full-Resolution/pika-tmp/%05d.jpg
```
Then, run pointrend to get segmentations:
```
cd preprocess
python mask.py pika ./detectron2; cd -
```
Assuming you have downloaded VCN flow in the previous step, run flow prediction:
```
bash preprocess/auto_gen.sh pika
```
Single video optimization
Spot
Next, we want to optimize the shape, texture and camera parameters from image observartions.
Optimizing spot takes ~20min on a single Titan Xp GPU.
```
bash scripts/spot3.sh
```
To render the optimized shape, texture and camera parameters
```
bash scripts/extract.sh spot3-1 10 1 26 spot3 no no
python render_vis.py --testdir log/spot3-1/ --seqname spot3 --freeze --outpath tmp/1.gif
```
DAVIS-camel
Optimize on camel observations.
```
bash scripts/template.sh camel
```
To render optimized camel
```
bash scripts/render_result.sh camel
```
Pika
Similarly, run the following steps to reconstruct pika
```
bash scripts/template.sh pika
```
To render reconstructed shape
```
bash scripts/render_result.sh pika
```
Monitor optimization
To monitor optimization, run
```
tensorboard --logdir log/
```
Example outputs
Evaluation
Run the following command to evaluate 3D shape accuracy for synthetic spot.
```
python scripts/eval_mesh.py --testdir log/spot3-1/ --gtdir database/DAVIS/Meshes/Full-Resolution/syn-spot3f/
```
Run the following command to evaluate keypoint accuracy on [BADJA](https://github.com/benjiebob/BADJA).
```
python scripts/eval_badja.py --testdir log/camel-5/ --seqname camel
```
Additional Notes
Optimize with ground-truth camera
We provide an example using synthetic spot data. Please run
```
bash scripts/spot3-gtcam.sh
```
Other videos in DAVIS/BAJDA
Please refer to [data preparation](#data-preparation) and [optimization](#single-video-optimization) of the camel example, and modify camel to other sequence names, such as dance-twirl.
We provide config files the `configs` folder.
Synthetic articulated objects
To render and reproduce results on articulated objects (Sec. 4.2), you will need to purchase and download 3D models [here](https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-rigged-puppy-animations-model-1482772).
We use blender to export animated meshes and run `rendera_all.py`:
```
python scripts/render_syn.py --outdir syn-dog-15 --nframes 15 --alpha 0.5 --model dog
```
Optimize on rendered observations
```
bash scripts/dog15.sh
```
To render optimized dog
```
bash scripts/render_result.sh dog
```
Batchsize
The current codebase is tested with batchsize=4. Batchsize can be modified in `scripts/template.sh`.
Note decreasing the batchsize will improive speed but reduce the stability.
Distributed training
The current codebase supports single-node multi-gpu training with pytorch distributed data-parallel.
Please modify `dev` and `ngpu` in `scripts/template.sh` to select devices.
