The spherical convolution is written in pure python with pytorch, so that no compiling proceedure is needed. One can just pull and run all the codes in this repo. We currently provide a sample model in test.py that uses spherical convolution layers. The model and checkpoint that used in original paper will be released later.
- The process of determining the kernel area at different θ locations is unstable, which will cause output feature maps contain some
nanvalues. However, this bug seems to have minor effects during training and testing. We will try to fix it later.
You can download our dataset [Baidu Pan] (code:p0a5), which consists of 104 videos. There are 12 zip files, and train/test index. After downloading these zips, unzip them together. There are 104 files and 'vinfo.pkl'. Each file consists of *.jpg (RGB image) and *.npy (ground truth heatmaps). The 'pkl' file consists of the original groud truth gaze points of the observers.
- Release core functions and modules
- Release training code for saliency detection
- Resolve the math unstability when calculating the kernel area at different θ locations
- Rewrite spherical convolution for torch 0.4+
