Instances as Queries

QueryInst-VIS Demo
  • [News]

    • Apr, 2022: If you like QueryInst for instance segmentation, you might also like TeViT (CVPR 2022, oral, paper / code & models) for high-performance video instance segmentation!.
    • Oct, 2021: QueryInst (ICCV 2021) is now officially included by mmdetection library, with new checkpoints, corresponding logs, and augmented training settings. We suggest you to use the newest QueryInst implementation in mmdetection, meanwhile this repo will be maintained too. Issues are welcomed if you have problems using QueryInst to reproduce the COCO AP reported in our paper.
  • TL;DR: QueryInst (Instances as Queries) is a simple and effective query based instance segmentation method driven by parallel supervision on dynamic mask heads, which outperforms previous arts in terms of both accuracy and speed.

  • Our QueryTrack (i.e., Tracking Instances as Queries, tech report) based on QueryInst won the 2nd place (AP = 52.3 @ test set, AP = 54.3 @ val set) in video instance segmentation (VIS) track with single online end-to-end model, single scale testing & without using extra video training data in the 3rd Large-scale Video Object Segmentation Challenge, CVPR 2021.

  • For the first time, we demonstrate that an end-to-end query based framework driven by parallel supervision is competitive with well-established and highly-optimized methods in a wide range of instance-level recognition tasks (object detection, instance segmentation and video instance segmentation).

ICCV2021 Paper

QueryInst

  • This repo serves as the official implementation for QueryInst, based on mmdetection and built upon Sparse R-CNN & DETR. Implantations based on Detectron2 will be released in the near future.

  • This project is under active development, we will extend QueryInst to a wide range of instance-level recognition tasks.

Notes:

  • Accesscode for baidu is QIst.

Getting Started

python setup.py develop
  • Prepare datasets:
mkdir data && cd data
ln -s /path/to/coco coco
  • Training QueryInst with single GPU:
python tools/train.py configs/queryinst/queryinst_r50_fpn_1x_coco.py
  • Training QueryInst with multi GPUs:
./tools/dist_train.sh configs/queryinst/queryinst_r50_fpn_1x_coco.py 8
  • Test QueryInst on COCO val set with single GPU:
python tools/test.py configs/queryinst/queryinst_r50_fpn_1x_coco.py PATH/TO/CKPT.pth --eval bbox segm
  • Test QueryInst on COCO val set with multi GPUs:
./tools/dist_test.sh configs/queryinst/queryinst_r50_fpn_1x_coco.py PATH/TO/CKPT.pth 8 --eval bbox segm
