31 place solution

Project structure:

  • common_blocks - classes and functions for training

    • dataloader.py - dataloader of competition data
    • metric.py - function with metric functions
    • training_helper.py - main class for training with cross validation or train_test_split
    • utils.py - useful utils for logs, model loading, mask transformation
    • losses.py - different segmentation losses
    • optimizers.py - SOTA optimizers
  • configs

    • train_params.py (in development)
    1. **isDebug - then is True, pipelines finishes to work in minutes (useful for code testing)
    2. unet_encoder - you can specify unet encoder (resnet, resnext, se-resnext are available)
    3. crop_image_size - if specified will train on crops, othwerwise on full image size
    4. attention_type - will add scse blocks to decoder
    5. path, folder - paths to competition data
  • train.py - main code for training

  • inference.py (TODO - currently in kaggle kernels)

Models We tried almost every type of model from qubvel`s segmentation model library - unet, fpn, pspnet with different encoders from resnet to senet152. FPN with se-resnext50 outperformed other models. Lighter models like resnet34 performed aren't well enough but were useful in the final blend. Se-resnext101 possibly could perform much better with more time training, but we didn’t test that.

Augmentations and Preprocessing From Albumentations library: Hflip, VFlip, RandomBrightnessContrast – training speed was not to fast so these basic augmentations performed well enough. In addition, we used big crops for training or/and finetuning on the full image size, because attention blocks in image tasks rely on the same input size for the training and inference phase.

Training

  • We used both pure pytorch and Catalyst framework for training.

  • Losses: bce and bce with dice performed quite well, but lovasz loss dramatically outperformed them in terms of validation and public score. However, combining with classification model bce with dice gave a better result, that could be because Lovasz helped the model to filter out false-positive masks. Focal loss performed quite poor due to not very good labeling.

  • Optimizer: Adam with RAdam. LookAHead, Over900 didn’t work well to use.

  • Crops with a mask, BalanceClassSampler with upsampler mode from catalyst significantly increased training speed.

  • We tried own classification model (resnet34 with CBAM) by setting the goal to improve f1 for each class. The optimal threshold was disappointingly unstable but we reached averaged f1 95.1+. As a result, Cheng`s classification was used.

  • Validation: kfold with 10 folds. Despite the shake-up – local, public and private correlated surprisingly good.

  • Pseudolabing; We did two rounds of pseudo labeling by training on the best public submit and validating on the out of fold. It didn’t work for the third time but gave us a huge improvement.

  • Postprocessing: filling holes, removing the small mask by the threshold. We tried to remove small objects by connected components with no improvements.

  • Hardware: bunch of nvidia cards

Ensembling Simple segmentation models averaging with different encoders, both FPN and Unet applied to images classified having a mask. One of the unchosen submit could give as 16th place.
