LETR: Line Segment Detection Using Transformers without Edges
Introduction
This repository contains the official code and pretrained models for Line Segment Detection Using Transformers without Edges. Yifan Xu*, Weijian Xu*, David Cheung, and Zhuowen Tu. CVPR2021 (Oral)
In this paper, we present a joint end-to-end line segment detection algorithm using Transformers that is post-processing and heuristics-guided intermediate processing (edge/junction/region detection) free. Our method, named LinE segment TRansformers (LETR), takes advantages of having integrated tokenized queries, a self-attention mechanism, and encoding-decoding strategy within Transformers by skipping standard heuristic designs for the edge element detection and perceptual grouping processes. We equip Transformers with a multi-scale encoder/decoder strategy to perform fine-grained line segment detection under a direct endpoint distance loss. This loss term is particularly suitable for detecting geometric structures such as line segments that are not conveniently represented by the standard bounding box representations. The Transformers learn to gradually refine line segments through layers of self-attention.

Step4: Train Script Examples
-
Train a coarse-model (a.k.a. stage1 model).
# Usage: bash script/*/*.sh [exp name] bash script/train/a0_train_stage1_res50.sh res50_stage1 # LETR-R50 bash script/train/a1_train_stage1_res101.sh res101_stage1 # LETR-R101
-
Train a fine-model (a.k.a. stage2 model).
# Usage: bash script/*/*.sh [exp name] bash script/train/a2_train_stage2_res50.sh res50_stage2 # LETR-R50 bash script/train/a3_train_stage2_res101.sh res101_stage2 # LETR-R101
-
Fine-tune the fine-model with focal loss (a.k.a. stage2_focal model).
# Usage: bash script/*/*.sh [exp name] bash script/train/a4_train_stage2_focal_res50.sh res50_stage2_focal # LETR-R50 bash script/train/a5_train_stage2_focal_res101.sh res101_stage2_focal # LETR-R101
Step5: Evaluation
- Evaluate models.
# Evaluate sAP^10, sAP^15, sF^10, sF^15 (both Wireframe and YorkUrban datasets). bash script/evaluation/eval_stage1.sh [exp name] bash script/evaluation/eval_stage2.sh [exp name] bash script/evaluation/eval_stage2_focal.sh [exp name]
