Official implementation of the paper "Deep ViT Features as Dense Visual Descriptors".
We demonstrate the effectiveness of deep features extracted from a self-supervised, pre-trained ViT model (DINO-ViT) as dense patch descriptors via real-world vision tasks: (a-b) co-segmentation & part co-segmentation: given a set of input images (e.g., 4 input images), we automatically co-segment semantically common foreground objects (e.g., animals), and then further partition them into common parts; (c-d) point correspondence: given a pair of input images, we automatically extract a sparse set of corresponding points. We tackle these tasks by applying only lightweight, simple methodologies such as clustering or binning, to deep ViT features.
Setup
Our code is developed in pytorch
on and requires the following modules: tqdm, faiss, timm, matplotlib, pydensecrf, opencv, scikit-learn
. We use python=3.9
but our code should be runnable on any version above 3.6
. We recomment running our code with any CUDA supported GPU for faster performance. We recommend setting the running environment via Anaconda by running the following commands:
$ conda env create -f env/dino-vit-feats-env.yml
$ conda activate dino-vit-feats-env
Otherwise, run the following commands in your conda environment:
$ conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11 -c pytorch
$ conda install tqdm
$ conda install -c conda-forge faiss
$ conda install -c conda-forge timm
$ conda install matplotlib
$ pip install opencv-python
$ pip install git+https://github.com/lucasb-eyer/pydensecrf.git
$ conda install -c anaconda scikit-learn
ViT Extractor
We provide a wrapper class for a ViT model to extract dense visual descriptors in extractor.py
. You can extract descriptors to .pt
files using the following command:
python extractor.py --image_path
--output_path
You can specify the pretrained model using the --model
flag with the following options:
dino_vits8
,dino_vits16
,dino_vitb8
,dino_vitb16
from the DINO repo.vit_small_patch8_224
,vit_small_patch16_224
,vit_base_patch8_224
,vit_base_patch16_224
from the timm repo.
You can specify the stride of patch extracting layer to increase resolution using the --stride
flag.
Part Co-segmentation
We provide a notebook for running on a single example in part_cosegmentation.ipynb
.
To run on several image sets, arrange each set in a directory, inside a data root directory:
|
|_
| |
| |_ img1.png
| |_ img2.png
|
|_
|
|_ img1.png
|_ img2.png
|_ img3.png
...
The following command will produce results in the specified
:
python part_cosegmentation.py --root_dir
--save_dir
Note: The default configuration in part_cosegmentation.ipynb
is suited for running on small sets (e.g. < 10). Increase amount of num_crop_augmentations
for more stable results (and increased runtime). The default configuration in part_cosegmentation.py
is suited for larger sets (e.g. >> 10).
Co-segmentation
We provide a notebook for running on a single example in cosegmentation.ipynb
.
To run on several image sets, arrange each set in a directory, inside a data root directory:
|
|_
| |
| |_ img1.png
| |_ img2.png
|
|_
|
|_ img1.png
|_ img2.png
|_ img3.png
...
The following command will produce results in the specified
:
python cosegmentation.py --root_dir
--save_dir
Point Correspondences
We provide a notebook for running on a single example in correpondences.ipynb
.
To run on several image pairs, arrange each image pair in a directory, inside a data root directory:
|
|_
| |
| |_ img1.png
| |_ img2.png
|
|_
|
|_ img1.png
|_ img2.png
...
The following command will produce results in the specified
:
python correspondences.py --root_dir
--save_dir
