UDAStrongBaseline

Open-source stronger baseline for unsupervised or domain adaptive object re-ID. We will udpate the strong baseline and group-aware label transfer method in domain adaptive person re-identifacation.

Introduction

*Our method only adopts the clustering algorithm and ReID baseline model with the moving average model.

UDAStrongBaseline is a transitional code based pyTorch framework for both unsupervised learning (USL) and unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) in the context of object re-ID tasks. It provides stronger baselines on these tasks. It needs the enviorment: Python >=3.6 and PyTorch >=1.1. We will transfer all the codes to the fastreid in the future (ongoing).

Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) on Person re-ID

• Direct infer models are trained on the source-domain datasets (source_pretrain) and directly tested on the target-domain datasets.
• UDA methods (MMT, SpCL, etc.) starting from ImageNet means that they are trained end-to-end in only one stage without source-domain pre-training. MLT denotes to the implementation of our NeurIPS-2020. Please note that it is a pre-released repository for the anonymous review process, and the official repository will be released upon the paper published.

Requirements

Installation

git https://github.com/zkcys001/UDAStrongBaseline/
cd UDAStrongBaseline

Prepare Datasets

Download the person datasets DukeMTMC-reID, Market-1501, MSMT17, Then unzip them under the directory like

./data
├── dukemtmc
│   └── DukeMTMC-reID
├── market1501
│   └── Market-1501-v15.09.15
├── msmt17
    └── MSMT17_V1

You can create the soft link to the dataset:

ln -s /path-to-data ./data

ImageNet-pretrained models for ResNet-50 will be automatically downloaded in the python script.

Training

We utilize 4 GPUs for training. Note that

Stage I: Pretrain Model on Source Domain

To train the model(s) in the source domain, run this command:

sh scripts/pretrain_market1501.sh
sh scripts/pretrain_dukemtmc.sh

Stage II: End-to-end training with clustering

Utilizeing DBSCAN clustering algorithm

sh scripts/dbscan_baseline_market2duke.sh
sh scripts/dbscan_baseline_duke2market.sh
