ViTPose: Simple Vision Transformer Baselines for Human Pose Estimation

Results | Updates | Usage | Todo | Acknowledge

This branch contains the pytorch implementation of ViTPose: Simple Vision Transformer Baselines for Human Pose Estimation. It obtains 81.1 AP on MS COCO Keypoint test-dev set.

Results from this repo on MS COCO val set

Using detection results from a detector that obtains 56 mAP on person.

Model	Pretrain	Resolution	AP	AR	config	log
ViT-Base	MAE	256x192	75.8	81.1	config	log
ViT-Large	MAE	256x192	78.3	83.5	config	log
ViT-Huge	MAE	256x192	79.1	84.1	config	log

Updates

[2022-04-27] Our ViTPose with ViTAE-G obtains 81.1 AP on COCO test-dev set!

Applications of ViTAE Transformer include: image classification | object detection | semantic segmentation | animal pose segmentation | remote sensing | matting | VSA | ViTDet

Usage

We use PyTorch 1.9.0 or NGC docker 21.06, and mmcv 1.3.9 for the experiments.

git clone https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmcv.git
cd mmcv
git checkout v1.3.9
MMCV_WITH_OPS=1 pip install -e .
cd ..
git clone https://github.com/ViTAE-Transformer/ViTPose.git
cd ViTPose
pip install -v -e .

After install the two repos, install timm and einops, i.e.,

pip install timm==0.4.9 einops

Download the pretrained models from MAE or ViTAE, and then conduct the experiments by

# for single machine
bash tools/dist_train.sh <Config PATH> <NUM GPUs> --cfg-options model.pretrained=<Pretrained PATH> --seed 0

# for multiple machines
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nnodes <Num Machines> --node_rank <Rank of Machine> --nproc_per_node <GPUs Per Machine> --master_addr <Master Addr> --master_port <Master Port> tools/train.py <Config PATH> --cfg-options model.pretrained=<Pretrained PATH> --launcher pytorch --seed 0

Todo

This repo current contains modifications including:

Upload configs and pretrained models
More models with SOTA results

Acknowledge

We acknowledge the excellent implementation from mmpose and MAE.
