NWPU-Crowd-Sample-Code-for-Localization

---

This repo is the official crowd localization implementation of paper: NWPU-Crowd: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Crowd Counting and Localization. The code is developed based on C^3 Framework.

Getting Started

Preparation

• Prerequisites

  • Python 3.x
  • Pytorch 1.x: http://pytorch.org .
  • other libs in requirements.txt, run pip install -r requirements.txt.

• Installation

  • Clone this repo:

    git clone https://github.com/gjy3035/NWPU-Crowd-Sample-Code-for-Localization.git
    

• Data Preparation

  • Download NWPU-Crowd dataset from this link.
  • Unzip *zip files in turns and place images_part* into a folder. Finally, the folder tree is below:

    -- NWPU-Crowd
        |-- images
        |   |-- 0001.jpg
        |   |-- 0002.jpg
        |   |-- ...
        |   |-- 5109.jpg
        |-- jsons
        |   |-- 0001.json
        |   |-- 0002.json
        |   |-- ...
        |   |-- 3609.json
        |-- mats
        |   |-- 0001.mat
        |   |-- 0002.mat
        |   |-- ...
        |   |-- 3609.mat
        |-- train.txt
        |-- val.txt
        |-- test.txt
        |-- readme.md
  

  • Run ./datasets/prepare_NWPU.m using Matlab.
  • Modify __C_NWPU.DATA_PATH in ./datasets/setting/NWPU.py with the path of your processed data.

Training

• Set the parameters in config.py and ./datasets/setting/NWPU.py.
• run python train.py.
• run tensorboard --logdir=exp --port=6006.

Testing

We only provide an example to forward the model on the test set. You may need to modify it to test your models.

• Modify some key parameters in test.py:
  • Line 35: dataRoot, the same as __C_NWPU.DATA_PATH in ./datasets/setting/NWPU.py.
  • Line 36: ori_data, the original data path.
  • Line 37: model_path.
  • Line 49: GPU Id and Model Name.
• Run python test.py.

Evaluation and Visualization

We only provide an example to forward the model on the test set. You may need to modify it to test your models.

• cd eval.
• python test.py.
• python vis4val.py.

Pre-trained Models

We provide the pre-trained models in this link.

Performance on the validation set

The overall results on val set:

Method	F1_m	Pre	Rec
RAZ_loc[1]	62.5	69.2	56.9
