U²-Net: U Square Net

U²-Net: Going Deeper with Nested U-Structure for Salient Object Detection

Structure

• nn.py: Defines the U²-Net neural network architecture.
• util.py: Contains utility functions and classes.
• datasets.py: Handles data loading, preprocessing, and augmentation.
• main.py: The main executable script that sets up the model, performs training,testing, and inference(Video && Image).

Installation

conda create -n PyTorch python=3.9
conda activate PyTorch
conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia
pip install opencv-python==4.5.5.64

Dataset Preparation

• Download datasets: SOD, ECSSD, DUT-OMRON, PASCAL-S, HKU-IS and DUTS-TE.

Train

• Configure your dataset path in main.py for training
• Run python main.py --train for Single-GPU training
• Run bash main.sh $ --train for Multi-GPU training, $ is number of GPUs

Test

• Configure your dataset path in main.py for testing
• Run python main.py --test for testing

Pretrained weight:

saved in weights folder

Demo

• Configure your video path in main.py for visualizing the demo
• Run python main.py --demo for demo

Demo with image

• Configure your image path in main.py for visualizing the demo image
• Run python main.py --demo_image for demo
