原文:Data Augmentation in SSD (Single Shot Detector).
作者研究了 single shot 目标检测器 SSD: Single Shot MultiBox Detector 如何取得了比 Faster R-CNN 更佳的 mAP,且计算复杂度明显减少,实时运行效果更快.
这里将详细描述 SSD 所采用的数据增强策略.
根据论文所述,其数据增强策略取得了 8.8% 的 mAP 提升.
.
数据增强对于小目标检测的精度提升尤其重要,因为其对图像进行缩放(zoom),使得分类器能够识别更多图片中的目标物体.
数据增强对于图像中出现被遮挡物体(occluded objects)的处理,也很重要,通过对训练数据中的图像进行裁剪,使得只有部分物体是可见的.
采用的数据增强处理流程步骤如下:
下面会详细介绍这些数据增强(包括相应的代码实现片段).
其中,每一数据变换都是概率随机的(一般 probability=0.5). 因此,不同的训练次数采用的是数据增强后的不同图像数据.
以 probability=0.5 的 随机概率,随机对图像每个像素添加一个值,该添加值是从 [-delat, delta] 中随机选取的. 默认的 delta 值是 32.
def __call__(self, image, boxes=None, labels=None):
if random.randint(2):
delta = random.uniform(-self.delta, self.delta)
image += delta
return image, boxes, labels
.
亮度(Brightness)调整后,进行对比度,色相和饱和度的随机变换. 其顺序是随机的.
有两种选择,首先对比度处理,然后色相和饱和度;或者首先色相和饱和度处理,然后对比度处理.
每种选择都是随机的,probability=0.5.
self.pd = [RandomContrast(),
ConvertColor(transform='HSV'),
RandomSaturation(),
RandomHue(),
ConvertColor(current='HSV', transform='BGR'),
RandomContrast() ]
im, boxes, labels = self.rand_brightness(im, boxes, labels)
if random.randint(2):
distort = Compose(self.pd[:-1])
else:
distort = Compose(self.pd[1:])
im, boxes, labels = distort(im, boxes, labels)
其中,对比度是在 RGB 空间处理,色相和饱和度是在 HSV 空间.
因此,在进行每一步操作前需要先作对应的颜色空间转换.
对比度,色相和饱和度的调整类似于亮度调整,都是 probability=0.5 的随机进行. 通过随机在一个上界和下界区间内选择形变的值.
例如,饱和度调整:
def __call__(self, image, boxes=None, labels=None):
if random.randint(2):
image[:, :, 1] *= random.uniform(self.lower, self.upper)
return image, boxes, labels
.
最后一种光度形变是随机光照噪声. 其包括随机颜色通道交换(color channel swap).
颜色变换定义为:
self.perms = ((0, 1, 2), (0, 2, 1),
(1, 0, 2), (1, 2, 0),
(2, 0, 1), (2, 1, 0))
对于 RGB 图像,颜色通道变换(0 2 1) 则交换 green 和 blue 通道,保持 red 通道不变.
.
光度调整只会改变图像像素,而不会改变图像的尺寸大小.
而几何变换则会对图像尺寸和维度进行调整.
.
随机裁剪是对 ExpandImage 得到的图像裁剪出其中的一部分图像块,并确保该图像块至少一个 groundtruth box 有重叠,至少一个 groundtruth box 的中心(centroid) 位于该图像块中.
这样就可以避免不包含明显的前景目标的图像块不用于网络训练(只有包含明显的前景目标的图像块采用于网络训练.)
同时,保证只有部分前景目标可见的图片用于网络训练.
.
例如,下面图像中,Groundtruth box 表示为红色,裁剪的图像块表示为绿色. 由于是随机裁剪,因此有些图像是包含扩展的画布,有些则不包含.
.
最后一步数据增强是随机镜像. 其仅是图像的左右翻转.在很多目标检测和图像分类张总均有采用.
.
最后,类似于其它目标检测和图像分类任务,图像为 resize 到 300x300,groundtruth 坐标进行相应调整;并对图像进行归一化和减均值处理.
