Introduction

Open-world object detection (OWOD) is a challenging computer vision problem, where the task is to detect a known set of object categories while simultaneously identifying unknown objects. Additionally, the model must incrementally learn new classes that become known in the next training episodes. Distinct from standard object detection, the OWOD setting poses significant challenges for generating quality candidate proposals on potentially unknown objects, separating the unknown objects from the background and detecting diverse unknown objects. Here, we introduce a novel end-to-end transformer-based framework, OW-DETR, for open-world object detection. The proposed OW-DETR comprises three dedicated components namely, attention-driven pseudo-labeling, novelty classification and objectness scoring to explicitly address the aforementioned OWOD challenges. Our OW-DETR explicitly encodes multi-scale contextual information, possesses less inductive bias, enables knowledge transfer from known classes to the unknown class and can better discriminate between unknown objects and background. Comprehensive experiments are performed on two benchmarks: MS-COCO and PASCAL VOC. The extensive ablations reveal the merits of our proposed contributions. Further, our model outperforms the recently introduced OWOD approach, ORE, with absolute gains ranging from $1.8%$ to $3.3%$ in terms of unknown recall on MS-COCO. In the case of incremental object detection, OW-DETR outperforms the state-of-the-art for all settings on PASCAL VOC.


Installation

Requirements

We have trained and tested our models on Ubuntu 16.0, CUDA 10.2, GCC 5.4, Python 3.7

conda create -n owdetr python=3.7 pip
conda activate owdetr
conda install pytorch==1.8.0 torchvision==0.9.0 torchaudio==0.8.0 cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch
pip install -r requirements.txt

Backbone features

Download the self-supervised backbone from here and add in models folder.

Compiling CUDA operators

cd ./models/ops
sh ./make.sh
# unit test (should see all checking is True)
python test.py

Dataset & Results

OWOD proposed splits



The splits are present inside data/VOC2007/OWOD/ImageSets/ folder. The remaining dataset can be downloaded using this link

The files should be organized in the following structure:

OW-DETR/
└── data/
    └── VOC2007/
        └── OWOD/
        	├── JPEGImages
        	├── ImageSets
        	└── Annotations

Results

Our proposed splits



Dataset Preparation

The splits are present inside data/VOC2007/OWDETR/ImageSets/ folder.

  1. Make empty JPEGImages and Annotations directory.
mkdir data/VOC2007/OWDETR/JPEGImages/
mkdir data/VOC2007/OWDETR/Annotations/
  1. Download the COCO Images and Annotations from coco dataset.
  2. Unzip train2017 and val2017 folder. The current directory structure should look like:
OW-DETR/
└── data/
    └── coco/
        ├── annotations/
        ├── train2017/
        └── val2017/
  1. Move all images from train2017/ and val2017/ to JPEGImages folder.
cd OW-DETR/data
mv data/coco/train2017/*.jpg data/VOC2007/OWDETR/JPEGImages/.
mv data/coco/val2017/*.jpg data/VOC2007/OWDETR/JPEGImages/.
  1. Use the code coco2voc.py for converting json annotations to xml files.

The files should be organized in the following structure:

OW-DETR/
└── data/
    └── VOC2007/
        └── OWDETR/
        	├── JPEGImages
        	├── ImageSets
        	└── Annotations

Currently, Dataloader and Evaluator followed for OW-DETR is in VOC format.
