Forked Detrex branch

This is a forked branch from detrex to make the maskdino project installable for python using pip install . from projects/maskdino folder This maskdino-project is also uploaded to devpi.

Originally using the maskdino git repository but with different versions of config using omegaconf the maskdino repo and maskdino repo inside detrex are quite different and ran into training problems.

Organised the maskdino param properties to be able to change them and make them more consistent.

Introduction

detrex is an open-source toolbox that provides state-of-the-art Transformer-based detection algorithms. It is built on top of Detectron2 and its module design is partially borrowed from MMDetection and DETR. Many thanks for their nicely organized code. The main branch works with Pytorch 1.10+ or higher (we recommend Pytorch 1.12).

Major Features

• Modular Design. detrex decomposes the Transformer-based detection framework into various components which help users easily build their own customized models.

• Strong Baselines. detrex provides a series of strong baselines for Transformer-based detection models. We have further boosted the model performance from 0.2 AP to 1.1 AP through optimizing hyper-parameters among most of the supported algorithms.

• Easy to Use. detrex is designed to be light-weight and easy for users to use:

  • LazyConfig System for more flexible syntax and cleaner config files.
  • Light-weight training engine modified from detectron2 lazyconfig_train_net.py

Apart from detrex, we also released a repo Awesome Detection Transformer to present papers about Transformer for detection and segmentation.

Fun Facts

The repo name detrex has several interpretations:

• detr-ex : We take our hats off to DETR and regard this repo as an extension of Transformer-based detection algorithms.

• det-rex : rex literally means 'king' in Latin. We hope this repo can help advance the state of the art on object detection by providing the best Transformer-based detection algorithms from the research community.

• de-t.rex : de means 'the' in Dutch. T.rex, also called Tyrannosaurus Rex, means 'king of the tyrant lizards' and connects to our research work 'DINO', which is short for Dinosaur.

Installation

Please refer to Installation Instructions for the details of installation.

Getting Started

Please refer to Getting Started with detrex for the basic usage of detrex. We also provides other tutorials for:

• Learn about the config system of detrex
• How to convert the pretrained weights from original detr repo into detrex format
• Visualize your training data and testing results on COCO dataset
• Analyze the model under detrex
• Download and initialize with the pretrained backbone weights
• Frequently asked questions
• A simple onnx convert tutorial provided by powermano
• Simple training techniques: Model-EMA, Mixed Precision Training, Activation Checkpoint
• Simple tutorial about custom dataset training

Although some of the tutorials are currently presented with relatively simple content, we will constantly improve our documentation to help users achieve a better user experience.
