Usage

Install MMSegmentation.

Data preparation

First, prepare ADE20K according to the guidelines in MMSegmentation.

Then, download the weights pretrained on ImageNet at here, and put them in a folder pretrained/

Results and models

Evaluation

To evaluate PVTv2-B2 + SemFPN on a single node with 8 gpus run:

dist_test.sh configs/sem_fpn/PVT/fpn_pvtv2_b2_ade20k_40k.py /path/to/checkpoint_file 8 --out results.pkl --eval mIoU

Training

To train PVTv2-B2 + SemFPN on a single node with 8 gpus run:

dist_train.sh configs/sem_fpn/PVT/fpn_pvtv2_b2_ade20k_40k.py 8
