Hi @matejgrcic, thanks for your work! I have couple of questions about task model accuracy on FS & SMIYC test results
As I understand you used WRN38 for FS, which suppose to have 83.5% mIoU. Table 2 reports 81.0% for DenseHybrid and 81.4 for SynBoost. Does it mean that DenseHybrid sacrifices 83.5-81.0=2.5% accuracy? Also, do you know why SynBoost is not 83.5% since it doesn't retrain the model?
Could tell me the LDN-121 mIoU before and after DenseHybrid retraining that has been used in SMIYC benchmark?
We initialize our network form cityscapes_cv0_wideresnet38_nosdcaug.pth checkpoint taken from this NVIDIA repo. Evaluation with our code shows that it achieves 81.4% mIoU. After the DenseHybrid finetuning we have 81.0%. Hence, the fine-tuning sacrifices around 0.4% mIoU. Contacting the authors of SynBoost might resolve your concerns with their model.
LDN-121 is not a SotA model. It doesn't deliver strong classification performance (e.g. 80+ mIoU on cityscapes). Still, it has a small memory footprint and can be trained quickly so it is ideal for prototyping.
