Image Segmentation with Tensorflow using CNNs and Conditional Random Fields

Tensorflow and TF-Slim | Dec 18, 2016

A post showing how to perform Image Segmentation with a recently released TF-Slim library and pretrained models. It covers the training and post-processing using Conditional Random Fields.

Introduction

In the previous post, we implemented the upsampling and made sure it is correct by comparing it to the implementation of the scikit-image library. To be more specific we had FCN-32 Segmentation network implemented which is described in the paper Fully convolutional networks for semantic segmentation.

In this post we will perform a simple training: we will get a sample image fromPASCAL VOC dataset along with annotation, train our network on them and test our network on the same image. It was done this way so that it can also be run on CPU – it takes only 10 iterations for the training to complete. Another point of this post is to show that segmentation that our network (FCN-32s) produces is very coarse – even if we run it on the same image that we were training it on. In this post we tackle this problem by performing Conditional Random Field post-processing stage, which refines our segmentation by taking into account pure RGB features of image and probabilities produced by our network. Overall, we get a refined segmentation. The set-up of this post is very simple on purpose. Similar approach to Segmentation was described in the paper Semantic Image Segmentation with Deep Convolutional Nets and Fully Connected CRFs by Chen et al. Please, take into account that setup in this post was made only to show limitation of FCN-32s model, to perform the training for real-life scenario, we refer readers to the paper Fully convolutional networks for semantic segmentation.

The blog post is created using jupyter notebook. After each chunk of a code you can see the result of its evaluation. You can also get the notebook file from here. The content of the blog post is partially borrowed from slim walkthough notebook.

Setup

To be able to run the code, you will need to have Tensorflow installed. I have used r0.12. You will need to use this fork of tensorflow/models.

I am also using scikit-image library and numpy for this tutorial plus other dependencies. One of the ways to install them is to download Anaconda software package for python.

Follow all the other steps described in the previous posts – it shows how to download the VGG-16 model and perform all other necessary for this tutorial steps.

Upsampling helper functions and Image Loading

In this part, we define helper functions that were used in the previous post. If you recall, we used upsampling to upsample the downsampled predictions that we get from our network. We get downsampled predictions because of max-pooling layers that are used in VGG-16 network.

We also write code for image and respective ground-truth segmentation loading. The code is well-commented, so don’t be afraid to read it.

import numpy as np def get_kernel_size(factor): """ Find the kernel size given the desired factor of upsampling. """ return 2 * factor - factor % 2 def upsample_filt(size): """ Make a 2D bilinear kernel suitable for upsampling of the given (h, w) size. """ factor = (size + 1) // 2 if size % 2 == 1: center = factor - 1 else: center = factor - 0.5 og = np.ogrid[:size, :size] return (1 - abs(og[0] - center) / factor) * \ (1 - abs(og[1] - center) / factor) def bilinear_upsample_weights(factor, number_of_classes): """ Create weights matrix for transposed convolution with bilinear filter initialization. """ filter_size = get_kernel_size(factor) weights = np.zeros((filter_size, filter_size, number_of_classes, number_of_classes), dtype=np.float32) upsample_kernel = upsample_filt(filter_size) for i in xrange(number_of_classes): weights[:, :, i, i] = upsample_kernel return weights

Loss function definition and training using Adam Optimization Algorithm.

In this part, we connect everything together: add the upsampling layer to our network, define the loss function that can be differentiated and perform training.

Following the Fully convolutional networks for semantic segmentation paper, we define loss as a pixel-wise cross-entropy. We can do this, because after upsampling we got the predictions of the same size as the input and we can compare the acquired segmentation to the respective ground-truth segmentation:

E=−∑n=1N∑k=1Ktnkln(ynk)E=−∑n=1N∑k=1Ktnkln(ynk)

Where NN is a number of pixels, KK - number of classes, tnktnk a variable representing the ground-truth with 1-of-KK coding scheme, ynkynk represent our predictions (softmax output).

For this case we use Adam optimizer because it requires less parameter tuning to get good results.

In this particular case we train and evaluate our results on one image – which is a much simpler case compared to real-world scenario. We do this to show the drawback of the approach – just to show that is has poor localization copabilities. If this holds for this simple case, it will also show similar of worse results on unseen images.
