<summary> Video </summary>

We conduct object detection using D-FINE and YOLO11 on a complex street scene video from [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfhEWj9sd9A). Despite challenging conditions such as backlighting, motion blur, and dense crowds, D-FINE-X successfully detects nearly all targets, including subtle small objects like backpacks, bicycles, and traffic lights. Its confidence scores and the localization precision for blurred edges are significantly higher than those of YOLO11.

## Quick start

### Setup

```shell
conda create -n dfine python=3.11.9
conda activate dfine
pip install -r requirements.txt
```


### Data Preparation

<details>
<summary> COCO2017 Dataset </summary>

1. Download COCO2017 from [OpenDataLab](https://opendatalab.com/OpenDataLab/COCO_2017) or [COCO](https://cocodataset.org/#download).
1. Modify paths in [coco_detection.yml](./configs/dataset/coco_detection.yml)

    ```yaml
    train_dataloader:
        img_folder: /data/COCO2017/train2017/
        ann_file: /data/COCO2017/annotations/instances_train2017.json
    val_dataloader:
        img_folder: /data/COCO2017/val2017/
        ann_file: /data/COCO2017/annotations/instances_val2017.json
    ```

</details>

<details>
<summary> Objects365 Dataset </summary>

1. Download Objects365 from [OpenDataLab](https://opendatalab.com/OpenDataLab/Objects365).

2. Set the Base Directory:
```shell
export BASE_DIR=/data/Objects365/data
```

3. Extract and organize the downloaded files, resulting directory structure:

```shell
${BASE_DIR}/train
├── images
│   ├── v1
│   │   ├── patch0
│   │   │   ├── 000000000.jpg
│   │   │   ├── 000000001.jpg
│   │   │   └── ... (more images)
│   ├── v2
│   │   ├── patchx
│   │   │   ├── 000000000.jpg
│   │   │   ├── 000000001.jpg
│   │   │   └── ... (more images)
├── zhiyuan_objv2_train.json
```

```shell
${BASE_DIR}/val
├── images
│   ├── v1
│   │   ├── patch0
│   │   │   ├── 000000000.jpg
│   │   │   └── ... (more images)
│   ├── v2
│   │   ├── patchx
│   │   │   ├── 000000000.jpg
│   │   │   └── ... (more images)
├── zhiyuan_objv2_val.json
```

4. Create a New Directory to Store Images from the Validation Set:
```shell
mkdir -p ${BASE_DIR}/train/images_from_val
```

5. Copy the v1 and v2 folders from the val directory into the train/images_from_val directory
```shell
cp -r ${BASE_DIR}/val/images/v1 ${BASE_DIR}/train/images_from_val/
cp -r ${BASE_DIR}/val/images/v2 ${BASE_DIR}/train/images_from_val/
```

6. Run remap_obj365.py to merge a subset of the validation set into the training set. Specifically, this script moves samples with indices between 5000 and 800000 from the validation set to the training set.
```shell
python tools/remap_obj365.py --base_dir ${BASE_DIR}
```


7. Run the resize_obj365.py script to resize any images in the dataset where the maximum edge length exceeds 640 pixels. Use the updated JSON file generated in Step 5 to process the sample data. Ensure that you resize images in both the train and val datasets to maintain consistency.
```shell
python tools/resize_obj365.py --base_dir ${BASE_DIR}
```

8. Modify paths in [obj365_detection.yml](./configs/dataset/obj365_detection.yml)

    ```yaml
    train_dataloader:
        img_folder: /data/Objects365/data/train
        ann_file: /data/Objects365/data/train/new_zhiyuan_objv2_train_resized.json
    val_dataloader:
        img_folder: /data/Objects365/data/val/
        ann_file: /data/Objects365/data/val/new_zhiyuan_objv2_val_resized.json
    ```

Download COCO format dataset here: [url](https://aistudio.baidu.com/datasetdetail/231455)

</details>

<details>
<summary>Custom Dataset</summary>

To train on your custom dataset, you need to organize it in the COCO format. Follow the steps below to prepare your dataset:

1. **Set `remap_mscoco_category` to `False`:**

    This prevents the automatic remapping of category IDs to match the MSCOCO categories.

    ```yaml
    remap_mscoco_category: False
    ```

2. **Organize Images:**

    Structure your dataset directories as follows:

    ```shell
    dataset/
    ├── images/
    │   ├── train/
    │   │   ├── image1.jpg
    │   │   ├── image2.jpg
    │   │   └── ...
    │   ├── val/
    │   │   ├── image1.jpg
    │   │   ├── image2.jpg
    │   │   └── ...
    └── annotations/
        ├── instances_train.json
        ├── instances_val.json
        └── ...
    ```

    - **`images/train/`**: Contains all training images.
    - **`images/val/`**: Contains all validation images.
    - **`annotations/`**: Contains COCO-formatted annotation files.

3. **Convert Annotations to COCO Format:**

    If your annotations are not already in COCO format, you'll need to convert them. You can use the following Python script as a reference or utilize existing tools:

    ```python
    import json

    def convert_to_coco(input_annotations, output_annotations):
        # Implement conversion logic here
        pass

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        convert_to_coco('path/to/your_annotations.json', 'dataset/annotations/instances_train.json')
    ```

4. **Update Configuration Files:**

    Modify your [custom_detection.yml](./configs/dataset/custom_detection.yml).

    ```yaml
    task: detection

    evaluator:
      type: CocoEvaluator
      iou_types: ['bbox', ]

    num_classes: 777 # your dataset classes
    remap_mscoco_category: False

    train_dataloader:
      type: DataLoader
      dataset:
        type: CocoDetection
        img_folder: /data/yourdataset/train
        ann_file: /data/yourdataset/train/train.json
        return_masks: False
        transforms:
          type: Compose
          ops: ~
      shuffle: True
      num_workers: 4
      drop_last: True
      collate_fn:
        type: BatchImageCollateFunction

    val_dataloader:
      type: DataLoader
      dataset:
        type: CocoDetection
        img_folder: /data/yourdataset/val
        ann_file: /data/yourdataset/val/ann.json
        return_masks: False
        transforms:
          type: Compose
          ops: ~
      shuffle: False
      num_workers: 4
      drop_last: False
      collate_fn:
        type: BatchImageCollateFunction
    ```

5. **[Optional]** Modify Class Mappings:

When using the Objects365 pre-trained weights to train on your custom dataset, the example assumes that your dataset only contains the classes `'Person'` and `'Car'`. For faster convergence, you can modify `self.obj365_ids` in `src/solver/_solver.py` as follows:


```python
self.obj365_ids = [0, 5]  # Person, Cars

You can replace these with any corresponding classes from your dataset. The list of Objects365 classes with their corresponding IDs:
https://github.com/Peterande/D-FINE/blob/352a94ece291e26e1957df81277bef00fe88a8e3/src/solver/_solver.py#L330

New training command:

```shell
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 torchrun --master_port=7777 --nproc_per_node=4 train.py -c configs/dfine/custom/dfine_hgnetv2_${model}_custom.yml --use-amp --seed=0 -t model.pth
```

However, if you don't wish to modify the class mappings, the pre-trained Objects365 weights will still work without any changes. Modifying the class mappings is optional and can potentially accelerate convergence for specific tasks.

<summary> Customizing Batch Size </summary>

For example, if you want to double the total batch size when training D-FINE-L on COCO2017, here are the steps you should follow:

1. **Modify your [dataloader.yml](./configs/dfine/include/dataloader.yml)** to increase the `total_batch_size`:

    ```yaml
    train_dataloader:
        total_batch_size: 64  # Previously it was 32, now doubled
    ```

2. **Modify your [dfine_hgnetv2_l_coco.yml](./configs/dfine/dfine_hgnetv2_l_coco.yml)**. Here’s how the key parameters should be adjusted:

    ```yaml
    optimizer:
    type: AdamW
    params:
        -
        params: '^(?=.*backbone)(?!.*norm|bn).*$'
        lr: 0.000025  # doubled, linear scaling law
        -
        params: '^(?=.*(?:encoder|decoder))(?=.*(?:norm|bn)).*$'
        weight_decay: 0.

    lr: 0.0005  # doubled, linear scaling law
    betas: [0.9, 0.999]
    weight_decay: 0.0001  # need a grid search

    ema:  # added EMA settings
        decay: 0.9998  # adjusted by 1 - (1 - decay) * 2
        warmups: 500  # halved

    lr_warmup_scheduler:
        warmup_duration: 250  # halved
    ```

<summary> Customizing Input Size </summary>

If you'd like to train **D-FINE-L** on COCO2017 with an input size of 320x320, follow these steps:

1. **Modify your [dataloader.yml](./configs/dfine/include/dataloader.yml)**:

    ```yaml

    train_dataloader:
    dataset:
        transforms:
            ops:
                - {type: Resize, size: [320, 320], }
    collate_fn:
        base_size: 320
    dataset:
        transforms:
            ops:
                - {type: Resize, size: [320, 320], }
    ```

2. **Modify your [dfine_hgnetv2.yml](./configs/dfine/include/dfine_hgnetv2.yml)**:

    ```yaml
    eval_spatial_size: [320, 320]
    ```

<summary> FDR and GO-LSD </summary>

1. Overview of D-FINE with FDR. The probability distributions that act as a more fine-
grained intermediate representation are iteratively refined by the decoder layers in a residual manner.
Non-uniform weighting functions are applied to allow for finer localization.

2. Overview of GO-LSD process. Localization knowledge from the final layer’s refined
distributions is distilled into earlier layers through DDF loss with decoupled weighting strategies.

<summary> Hard Cases </summary>

The following visualization demonstrates D-FINE's predictions in various complex detection scenarios. These include cases with occlusion, low-light conditions, motion blur, depth of field effects, and densely populated scenes. Despite these challenges, D-FINE consistently produces accurate localization results.
