This repository contains the official implementation for the paper:

Global Matching with Overlapping Attention for Optical Flow Estimation
CVPR 2022
Shiyu Zhao, Long Zhao, Zhixing Zhang, Enyu Zhou, Dimitris Metaxas

Requirements

The code has been tested with PyTorch 1.7 and Cuda 11.0. Later PyTorch may also work.

conda create --name gmflownet
conda activate gmflownet
conda install pytorch==1.7.0 torchvision==0.8.0 torchaudio==0.7.0 cudatoolkit=11.0 -c pytorch
conda install matplotlib tensorboard scipy opencv

Demos

Download .zip file with pretrained models at Google Drive. Unzip pretrained_models.zip in the root.

unzip pretrained_models.zip

You can demo a trained model on a sequence of frames

python demo.py --model gmflownet --ckpt=pretrained_models/gmflownet-things.pth --path=demo-frames

Required Data

To evaluate/train RAFT, you need to download the following datasets.

Place all datasets in your preferred directory and symbolic link it to ./datasets with ln -s <your_directory> ./datasets so that your ./datasets folder looks like

├── datasets
    ├── Sintel
        ├── test
        ├── training
    ├── KITTI
        ├── testing
        ├── training
        ├── devkit
    ├── FlyingChairs_release
        ├── data
    ├── FlyingThings3D
        ├── frames_cleanpass
        ├── frames_finalpass
        ├── optical_flow
    ...

Evaluation

Download the pretraind model described in Demo. You may evaluate a pretrained model using evaluate.py. To get the best result,

On Sintel, evaluate the gmflownet_mix model as,

python evaluate.py --model gmflownet --use_mix_attn --ckpt=pretrained_models/gmflownet_mix-things.pth --dataset=sintel

On KITTI, evaluate the gmflownet model as,

python evaluate.py --model gmflownet --ckpt=pretrained_models/gmflownet-things.pth --dataset=kitti

Note: gmflownet_mix replaces half of heads (4 out of 8 heads) in each POLA attention of gmflownet with heads of axial attentions and achieves better results on Sintel.

Training

We used the following training schedules in our paper (2 GPUs).

  • Train gmflownet as,
./train_gmflownet.sh
  • Train gmflownet_mix as,
./train_gmflownet_mix.sh

Training logs will be written to the ./runs which can be visualized using tensorboard as,

tensorboard --bind_all --port 8080 --logdir ./runs

Acknowledgement

The code is based on RAFT and SwinTransformer. We sincerely thank the authors for their great work.
