Contents

  1. Requirements: software
  2. Requirements: hardware
  3. Basic installation
  4. Demo
  5. Beyond the demo: training and testing

Requirements: software

  1. Requirements for Caffe and pycaffe (see: Caffe installation instructions)

Note: Caffe must be built with support for Python layers!

# In your Makefile.config, make sure to have this line uncommented
WITH_PYTHON_LAYER := 1
# Unrelatedly, it's also recommended that you use CUDNN
USE_CUDNN := 1

You can download my Makefile.config for reference. 2. Python packages you might not have: cython, python-opencv, easydict

Requirements: hardware

  1. For training the end-to-end version of RRPN with VGG16, 4~5G of GPU memory is sufficient (using CUDNN)

Installation (sufficient for the demo)

  1. Clone the RRPN repository
# git clone https://github.com/mjq11302010044/RRPN.git
  1. We'll call the directory that you cloned RRPN into RRPN_ROOT

  2. Build the Cython modules

    cd $RRPN_ROOT/lib
    make
  3. Build Caffe and pycaffe

    cd $RRPN_ROOT/caffe-fast-rcnn
    # Now follow the Caffe installation instructions here:
    #   http://caffe.berkeleyvision.org/installation.html
    
    # If you're experienced with Caffe and have all of the requirements installed
    # and your Makefile.config in place, then simply do:
    make -j4 && make pycaffe
  4. Download pre-computed RRPN detectors

    Trained VGG16 model download link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5rKZkZodGIsV2RJUjVlMjNOZkE
    

    Then move the model into $RRPN_ROOT/data/faster_rcnn_models.

Demo

After successfully completing basic installation, you'll be ready to run the demo.

To run the demo

cd $RRPN_ROOT
python ./tools/rotation_demo.py

The txt results will be saved in $RRPN_ROOT/result

Beyond the demo: installation for training and testing models

You can use the function get_rroidb() in $RRPN_ROOT/lib/rotation/data_extractor.py to manage your training data:

Each training sample should be managed in a python dict like:

im_info = {
	'gt_classes': # Set to 1(Only text)
	'max_classes': # Set to 1(Only text)
	'image': # image path to access
	'boxes': # ground truth box
	'flipped' : # Flip an image or not (Not implemented)
	'gt_overlaps' : # overlap of a class(text)
	'seg_areas' : # area of an ground truth region
	'height': # height of an image data
	'width': # width of an image data
	'max_overlaps' : # max overlap with each gt-proposal
	'rotated': # Random angle to rotate an image
}

Then assign your database to the variable 'roidb' in main function of $RRPN_ROOT/tools/train_net.py

116: roidb = get_rroidb("train") # change to your data manage function

Download pre-trained ImageNet models

Pre-trained ImageNet models can be downloaded for the networks described in the paper: VGG16.

cd $RRPN_ROOT
./data/scripts/fetch_imagenet_models.sh

VGG16 comes from the Caffe Model Zoo, but is provided here for your convenience. ZF was trained at MSRA.

Then you can train RRPN by typing:

./experiment/scripts/faster_rcnn_end2end.sh [GPU_ID] [NET] rrpn

[NET] usually takes VGG16

Trained RRPN networks are saved under:(We set the directory to './' by default.)

./

One can change the directory in variable output_dir in $RRPN_ROOT/tools/train_net.py

Any question about this project please send message to Jianqi Ma(mjq11302010044@gmail.com), and enjoy it!
