SiamFC - PyTorch

Highlights of this update:

• Higher scores with more stable training performance.
• Faster training (~11 minutes to train one epoch on GOT-10k on a single GPU).
• Added MIT LICENSE.
• Organized code.
• Uploaded pretrained weights. (Google Drive or Baidu Yun (password: wbek))

A clean PyTorch implementation of SiamFC tracker described in paper Fully-Convolutional Siamese Networks for Object Tracking. The code is evaluated on 7 tracking datasets (OTB (2013/2015), VOT (2018), DTB70, TColor128, NfS and UAV123), using the GOT-10k toolkit.

Installation

Install Anaconda, then install dependencies:

# install PyTorch >= 1.0
conda install pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=9.0 -c pytorch
# intall OpenCV using menpo channel (otherwise the read data could be inaccurate)
conda install -c menpo opencv
# install GOT-10k toolkit
pip install got10k

GOT-10k toolkit is a visual tracking toolkit that implements evaluation metrics and tracking pipelines for 9 popular tracking datasets.

Training the tracker

1. Setup the training dataset in tools/train.py. Default is the GOT-10k dataset located at ~/data/GOT-10k.

2. Run:

python tools/train.py

Evaluate the tracker

1. Setup the tracking dataset in tools/test.py. Default is the OTB dataset located at ~/data/OTB.

2. Setup the checkpoint path of your pretrained model. Default is pretrained/siamfc_alexnet_e50.pth.

3. Run:

python tools/test.py

Running the demo

1. Setup the sequence path in tools/demo.py. Default is ~/data/OTB/Crossing.

2. Setup the checkpoint path of your pretrained model. Default is pretrained/siamfc_alexnet_e50.pth.

3. Run:

python tools/demo.py
