Installation

Set up python environment

pip install -r requirements.txt

Compile the backend/tf_cpn/lib and backend/light_head_rcnn/lib

cd mvpose/backend/tf_cpn/lib/
make
cd ./lib_kernel/lib_nms
bash compile.sh

cd mvpose/backend/light_head_rcnn/lib/
bash make.sh

Since they use py-faster-rcnn as backbone. Many people using faster-rcnn meet with some problems when compiling those components. Suggestions on google can be helpful.

Compile the pictorial function for acceleration

cd mvpose/src/m_lib/
python setup.py build_ext --inplace

Prepare models and datasets

Prepare models: Please put light-head-rcnn models to backend/light_head_rcnn/output/model_dump, backend/tf_cpn/log/model_dump to backend/tf_cpn/log/model_dump, and CamStyle model trained by myself to backend/CamStyle/logs
Prepare the datasets: Put datasets such as Shelf and CampusSeq1 to ./datasets/ Download Campus and Shelf datasets. Then, put datasets such as Shelf and CampusSeq1 to datasets/
Generate the camera parameters: Since each dataset uses different way to obtain the camera parameters, we show an example to deal with the Campus dataset:
- Add following code to .datasets/CampusSeq1/Calibration/producePmat.m
```
K = cell(1,3);
K{1} = K1; K{2} = K2; K{3} = K3;
m_RT = cell(1,3);
m_RT{1} = RT1; m_RT{2} = RT2; m_RT{3} = RT3;
save('intrinsic.mat','K');
save('m_RT.mat', 'm_RT');
save('P.mat', 'P');
save('prjectionMat','P');
```
- generate the camera_parameter.pickle
```
python ./src/tools/mat2pickle.py /parameter/dir ./datasets/CampusSeq1
```
Here, we also provide the camera_parameter.pickle of Campus and Shelf. You can generate the .pickle file for your datasets using the same way.

Demo and Evaluate

Run the demo

python ./src/m_utils/demo.py -d Campus
python ./src/m_utils/demo.py -d Shelf

If all the configuration is OK, you may see the visualization of following items.

Evaluate on the Campus/Shelf datasets

python ./src/m_utils/evaluate.py -d Campus
python ./src/m_utils/evaluate.py -d Shelf

As long as the progress bar finished, you may see a beautified table of evaluation result and a csv file for the evaluation result will be save in ./result directory.

Accelerate the evaluation

Since the 2D pose estimator (CPN) is a little slow, we can save the predicted 2D poses and heatmaps and then start with these saved files.

produce the files

python src/tools/preprocess.py -d Campus -dump_dir ./datasets/Campus_processed
python src/tools/preprocess.py -d Shelf -dump_dir ./datasets/Shelf_processed

evaluate with saved 2D poses and heatmaps

python ./src/m_utils/evaluate.py -d Campus -dumped ./datasets/Campus_processed
python ./src/m_utils/evaluate.py -d Shelf -dumped ./datasets/Shelf_processed

Note: for the sake of convenience, we do not optimize on the size of dumped file. Therefore, the size of Campus_processed is around 4.0G and the size of Shelf_processed is around 234G. Please make sure your disk have 200+G free space. Any pull request to solve this issues will be welcomed.
