- This repo provides code, models and training/inference recipes for TeViT(Temporally Efficient Vision Transformer for Video Instance Segmentation).
- TeViT is a transformer-based end-to-end video instance segmentation framework. We build our framework upon the query-based instance segmentation methods, i.e.,
QueryInst
. - We propose a messenger shift mechanism in the transformer backbone, as well as a spatiotemporal query interaction head in the instance heads. These two designs fully utlizes both frame-level and instance-level temporal context information and obtains strong temporal modeling capacity with negligible extra computational cost.
Models and Main Results
- We provide both checkpoints and codalab server submissions on
YouTube-VIS-2019
dataset.
Name | AP | AP@50 | AP@75 | AR@1 | AR@10 | model | submission |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
TeViT_MsgShifT | 46.3 | 70.6 | 50.9 | 45.2 | 54.3 | link | link |
TeViT_MsgShifT_MST | 46.9 | 70.1 | 52.9 | 45.0 | 53.4 | link | link |
- We have conducted multiple runs due to the training instability and checkpoints above are all the best one among multiple runs. The average performances are reported in our paper.
- Besides basic models, we also provide TeViT with
ResNet-50
andSwin-L
backbone, models are also trained onYouTube-VIS-2019
dataset. - MST denotes multi-scale traning.
Name | AP | AP@50 | AP@75 | AR@1 | AR@10 | model | submission |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
TeViT_R50 | 42.1 | 67.8 | 44.8 | 41.3 | 49.9 | link | link |
TeViT_Swin-L_MST | 56.8 | 80.6 | 63.1 | 52.0 | 63.3 | link | link |
- Due to backbone limitations, TeViT models with
ResNet-50
andSwin-L
backbone are conducted withSTQI Head
only (i.e., without our proposedmessenger shift mechanism
). - With
Swin-L
as backbone network, we apply more instance queries (i.e., from 100 to 300) and stronger data augmentation strategies. Both of them can further boost the final performance.

Inference
python tools/test_vis.py configs/tevit/tevit_msgshift.py $PATH_TO_CHECKPOINT
After inference process, the predicted results is stored in results.json
, submit it to the evaluation server to get the final performance.
Training
- Download the COCO pretrained
QueryInst
with PVT-B1 backbone from here. - Train TeViT with 8 GPUs:
./tools/dist_train.sh configs/tevit/tevit_msgshift.py 8 --no-validate --cfg-options load_from=$PATH_TO_PRETRAINED_WEIGHT
- Train TeViT with multi-scale data augmentation:
./tools/dist_train.sh configs/tevit/tevit_msgshift_mstrain.py 8 --no-validate --cfg-options load_from=$PATH_TO_PRETRAINED_WEIGHT
- The whole training process will cost about three hours with 8 TESLA V100 GPUs.
- To train TeViT with
ResNet-50
orSwin-L
backbone, please download the COCO pretrained weights fromQueryInst
.
