ChainerCV: a Library for Deep Learning in Computer Vision

ChainerCV is a collection of tools to train and run neural networks for computer vision tasks using Chainer.

You can find the documentation here.

Supported tasks:

Guiding Principles

ChainerCV is developed under the following three guiding principles.

  • Ease of Use -- Implementations of computer vision networks with a cohesive and simple interface.
  • Reproducibility -- Training scripts that are perfect for being used as reference implementations.
  • Compositionality -- Tools such as data loaders and evaluation scripts that have common API.

Installation

$ pip install -U numpy
$ pip install chainercv

The instruction on installation using Anaconda is here (recommended).

Requirements

  • Chainer and its dependencies
  • Pillow
  • Cython (Build requirements)

For additional features

Environments under Python 2.7.12 and 3.6.0 are tested.

  • The master branch is designed to work on Chainer v6 (the stable version) and v7 (the development version).
  • The following branches are kept for the previous version of Chainer. Note that these branches are unmaintained.
    • 0.4.11 (for Chainer v1). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.4.11.
    • 0.7 (for Chainer v2). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.7.
    • 0.8 (for Chainer v3). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.8.
    • 0.10 (for Chainer v4). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.10.
    • 0.12 (for Chainer v5). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.12.
    • 0.13 (for Chainer v6). It can be installed by pip install chainercv==0.13.

Data Conventions

  • Image
    • The order of color channel is RGB.
    • Shape is CHW (i.e. (channel, height, width)).
    • The range of values is [0, 255].
    • Size is represented by row-column order (i.e. (height, width)).
  • Bounding Boxes
    • Shape is (R, 4).
    • Coordinates are ordered as (y_min, x_min, y_max, x_max). The order is the opposite of OpenCV.
  • Semantic Segmentation Image
    • Shape is (height, width).
    • The value is class id, which is in range [0, n_class - 1].

Sample Visualization
