U^2-Net: Going Deeper with Nested U-Structure for Salient Object Detection

Evaluation Code

Python 3.6
numpy 1.15.2
scikit-image 0.14.0
PIL 5.2.0
PyTorch 0.4.0
torchvision 0.2.1

The SSIM loss is adapted from pytorch-ssim.

1. Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/NathanUA/BASNet.git

2. Download the pre-trained model basnet.pth from GoogleDrive or baidu extraction code: 6phq, and put it into the dirctory 'saved_models/basnet_bsi/'

3. Cd to the directory 'BASNet', run the training or inference process by command: python basnet_train.py or python basnet_test.py respectively.

We also provide the predicted saliency maps (GoogleDrive,Baidu) for datasets SOD, ECSSD, DUT-OMRON, PASCAL-S, HKU-IS and DUTS-TE.
