Hi @idra79haza For vMAP, we need instance masks to know where the objects are and their associated model. I think you can find the IDs when you load it.

Wow thank you for quick reply!!

Oh I was wondering regarding different semantic files im imap dataset. There seems to be 3 files like "semanticclass.png" files, "vis_semanticclass.png" files, and "semanticinstance*.png" files. Do we need all of these different files?!

Thank you!

The code for loading data is here. We need instance masks for association and semantic masks for modelling it as an object or turning it into background model.
