RetinaNet (PyTorch)

PyTorch implementation of Focal Loss for Dense Object Detection.

Train

This implementation features experiment-based training. You can setup your own experiment by creating a subdirectory of exps, and a config.py file containing all the training and evaluation parameters. You can then simply train by running:

python train.py --exp exp_subdirectory_name

Pascal VOC

I have prepared an experiment on Pascal VOC 2012. Make sure you softlink the Pascal VOC 2012 directory (i.e. the one containing Annotations, JPEGImages and ImageSets) inside your data directory before training.

mkdir data
ln -s /path/to/voc/data data/VOC2012
python train.py --exp voc

The chekpoint of the best model will automatically be saved in the ckpts directory.

Notes

This implementation was tested on a smaller VOC-like dataset, and seems to work properly. First results on Pascal VOC don't look accurate enough. Currently working on figuring out what the problem is, and on the evaluation code.

Some code was taken from both c0nn3r's implementation and kuangliu's.
