Features at a glance
-
We trained a unified object detector on 4 large-scale detection datasets: COCO, Objects365, OpenImages, and Mapillary, with state-of-the-art performance on all of them.
-
The model predicts class labels in a learned unified label space.
-
The model can be directly used to test on novel datasets outside the training datasets.
-
In this repo, we also provide state-of-the-art baselines for Objects365 and OpenImages.
Main results
| COCO test-challenge | OpenImages public test | Mapillary test | Objects365 val |
|---|---|---|---|
| 52.9 | 60.6 | 25.3 | 33.7 |
Results are obtained using a Cascade-RCNN with ResNeSt200 trained in an 8x schedule.
- Unified model vs. ensemble of dataset-specific models with known test domains.
| COCO | Objects365 | OpenImages | mean. | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unified | 45.4 | 24.4 | 66.0 | 45.3 |
| Dataset-specific models | 42.5 | 24.9 | 65.7 | 44.4 |
Results are obtained using a Cascade-RCNN with Res50 trained in an 8x schedule.
- Zero-shot cross dataset evaluation
| VOC | VIPER | CityScapes | ScanNet | WildDash | CrowdHuman | KITTI | mean | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unified | 82.9 | 21.3 | 52.6 | 29.8 | 34.7 | 70.7 | 39.9 | 47.3 |
| Oracle models | 80.3 | 31.8 | 54.6 | 44.7 | - | 80.0 | - | - |
Results are obtained using a Cascade-RCNN with Res50 trained in an 8x schedule.

Installation
Our project is developed on detectron2. Please follow the official detectron2 installation.
Demo
We use the same inference API as detectorn2. To run inference on an image folder using our pretrained model, run
python demo.py --config-file configs/Unified_learned_OCIM_R50_6x+2x.yaml --input images/*.jpg --opts MODEL.WEIGHTS models/Unified_learned_OCIM_R50_6x+2x.pth
If setup correctly, the output should look like:
*The sample image is from WildDash dataset.
Note that the model predicts all labels in its label hierarchy tree (for example, both vehicle and car for a car), following the protocol in OpenImages.
Benchmark evaluation and training
After installation, follow the instructions in DATASETS.md to setup the (many) datasets. Then check REPRODUCE.md to reproduce the results in the paper.
