Bag of Tricks and A Strong ReID Baseline

Bag of Tricks and A Strong Baseline for Deep Person Re-identification. CVPRW2019, Oral.

A Strong Baseline and Batch Normalization Neck for Deep Person Re-identification. IEEE Transactions on Multimedia (Accepted).

[Journal Version(TMM)] [PDF] [Slides] [Poster]

News! Our journal version has been accepted by IEEE Transactions on Multimedia.

We are very grateful for your contribution to our project and hope that this project can help your research or work.

The codes are expanded on a ReID-baseline , which is open sourced by our co-first author Xingyu Liao.

Another re-implement is developed by python2.7 and pytorch0.4. [link]

A tiny repo with simple re-implement. [link]

Our baseline also achieves great performance on Vehicle ReID task! [link]

With Ranked List loss(CVPR2019)[link], our baseline can achieve better performance. [link]

Get Started

The designed architecture follows this guide PyTorch-Project-Template, you can check each folder's purpose by yourself.

  1. cd to folder where you want to download this repo

  2. Run git clone https://github.com/michuanhaohao/reid-strong-baseline.git

  3. Install dependencies:

  4. Prepare dataset

    Create a directory to store reid datasets under this repo or outside this repo. Remember to set your path to the root of the dataset in config/defaults.py for all training and testing or set in every single config file in configs/ or set in every single command.

    You can create a directory to store reid datasets under this repo via

    cd reid-strong-baseline
mkdir data

    （1）Market1501

    data
    market1501 # this folder contains 6 files.
        bounding_box_test/
        bounding_box_train/
        ......

    （2）DukeMTMC-reID

    data
    dukemtmc-reid
    	DukeMTMC-reID # this folder contains 8 files.
        	bounding_box_test/
        	bounding_box_train/
        	......

  5. Prepare pretrained model if you don't have

    （1）ResNet

    from torchvision import models
models.resnet50(pretrained=True)

    （2）Senet

    import torch.utils.model_zoo as model_zoo
model_zoo.load_url('the pth you want to download (specific urls are listed in  ./modeling/backbones/senet.py)')

    Then it will automatically download model in ~/.torch/models/, you should set this path in config/defaults.py for all training or set in every single training config file in configs/ or set in every single command.

    （3）ResNet_IBN_a

    You can download the ImageNet pre-trained weights from here [link]

    （4）Load your self-trained model If you want to continue your train process based on your self-trained model, you can change the configuration PRETRAIN_CHOICE from 'imagenet' to 'self' and set the PRETRAIN_PATH to your self-trained model. We offer Experiment-pretrain_choice-all_tricks-tri_center-market.sh as an example.

  6. If you want to know the detailed configurations and their meaning, please refer to config/defaults.py. If you want to set your own parameters, you can follow our method: create a new yml file, then set your own parameters. Add --config_file='configs/your yml file' int the commands described below, then our code will merge your configuration. automatically.

Train

You can run these commands in .sh files for training different datasets of differernt loss. You can also directly run code sh *.sh to run our demo after your custom modification.

  1. Market1501, cross entropy loss + triplet loss
python3 tools/train.py --config_file='configs/softmax_triplet.yml' MODEL.DEVICE_ID "('your device id')" DATASETS.NAMES "('market1501')" OUTPUT_DIR "('your path to save checkpoints and logs')"
  1. DukeMTMC-reID, cross entropy loss + triplet loss + center loss
python3 tools/train.py --config_file='configs/softmax_triplet_with_center.yml' MODEL.DEVICE_ID "('your device id')" DATASETS.NAMES "('dukemtmc')" OUTPUT_DIR "('your path to save checkpoints and logs')"

Test

You can test your model's performance directly by running these commands in .sh files after your custom modification. You can also change the configuration to determine which feature of BNNeck is used and whether the feature is normalized (equivalent to use Cosine distance or Euclidean distance) for testing.

Please replace the data path of the model and set the PRETRAIN_CHOICE as 'self' to avoid time consuming on loading ImageNet pretrained model.

  1. Test with Euclidean distance using feature before BN without re-ranking,.
python3 tools/test.py --config_file='configs/softmax_triplet_with_center.yml' MODEL.DEVICE_ID "('your device id')" DATASETS.NAMES "('market1501')" TEST.NECK_FEAT "('before')" TEST.FEAT_NORM "('no')" MODEL.PRETRAIN_CHOICE "('self')" TEST.WEIGHT "('your path to trained checkpoints')"
  1. Test with Cosine distance using feature after BN without re-ranking,.
python3 tools/test.py --config_file='configs/softmax_triplet_with_center.yml' MODEL.DEVICE_ID "('your device id')" DATASETS.NAMES "('market1501')" TEST.NECK_FEAT "('after')" TEST.FEAT_NORM "('yes')" MODEL.PRETRAIN_CHOICE "('self')" TEST.WEIGHT "('your path to trained checkpoints')"
  1. Test with Cosine distance using feature after BN with re-ranking
