CitySeg: Urban Semantic Segmentation Pipeline

CitySeg is a flexible and efficient semantic segmentation pipeline for processing images and videos of urban environments. It supports multiple segmentation models and datasets, with capabilities for processing high-resolution inputs and comprehensive result analysis.

Features

  • Support for multiple segmentation models (OneFormer)
  • Compatible with various datasets (Cityscapes, ADE20k, Mapillary Vistas)
  • Flexible image resizing for processing high-resolution inputs
  • Comprehensive analysis of segmentation results, including category-wise statistics
  • Support for both image and video inputs
  • Multi-video processing capability for entire directories
  • Caching of processed segmentation maps in HDF5 format for quick re-analysis
  • Output includes segmentation maps, colored segmentations, overlay visualizations, and detailed CSV reports
  • Configurable logging with console and file outputs

Installation

You can install CitySeg using pip:

pip install cityseg

Alternatively, clone the repository and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/cityseg.git
cd cityseg
pip install -e .

Dependencies

CitySeg requires the following main packages:

  • PyTorch
  • torchvision
  • transformers
  • opencv-python (cv2)
  • numpy
  • Pillow (PIL)
  • h5py
  • pandas
  • tqdm
  • pyyaml
  • loguru

For a complete list of dependencies, please refer to the pyproject.toml file.

Usage

  1. Prepare a configuration YAML file (e.g., config.yaml) with your desired settings.

  2. Run the pipeline using the following command:

    python -m cityseg.main --config path/to/your/config.yaml

    Optional arguments:

    • --log-level: Set the logging level (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL)
    • --verbose: Enable verbose logging

  3. The pipeline will process the input and generate various outputs including segmentation maps, visualizations, and analysis reports.

Configuration

Here's an example of a basic configuration file:

input: path/to/your/input/file_or_directory
output_prefix: path/to/your/output/directory/output
model:
  name: shi-labs/oneformer_cityscapes_swin_large
  max_size: 1920  # Set to null to maintain original resolution
  device: cuda  # or cpu or mps
frame_step: 5  # For video processing, process every 5th frame
save_raw_segmentation: true
save_colored_segmentation: true
save_overlay: true
visualization:
  alpha: 0.5
  colormap: default

Models

CitySeg currently supports Mask2Former and BEIT models. The verified models include:

  • "facebook/mask2former-swin-large-cityscapes-semantic"
  • "facebook/mask2former-swin-large-mapillary-vistas-semantic"
  • "facebook/maskformer-swin-small-ade" (sort of, this often leads to segfaults. Recommend using disable_tqdm in the config.)
  • "microsoft/beit-large-finetuned-ade-640-640"
  • "nvidia/segformer-b5-finetuned-cityscapes-1024-1024"
  • "zoheb/mit-b5-finetuned-sidewalk-semantic"
  • "nickmuchi/segformer-b4-finetuned-segments-sidewalk"

Mask2Former are by far the most stable.

Some models which seem to load correctly but continually produce segfault errors on my machine are:

  • "facebook/maskformer-swin-large-ade"
  • "nvidia/segformer-b5-finetuned-ade-640-640"
  • "nvidia/segformer-b0-finetuned-cityscapes-1024-1024"
  • "zoheb/mit-b5-finetuned-sidewalk-semantic" (use model_type: segformer in the config)

Confirmed not to work due to issues with the Hugging Face pipeline:

  • "shi-labs/oneformer_ade20k_dinat_large"

Note on dinat models: The dinat backbone models require the natten package, which may have installation issues on some systems. These models are also significantly slower than the swin backbone models, especially when forced to run on CPU. However, they may produce better quality outputs in some cases.

Project Structure

The project is organized into several Python modules, each serving a specific purpose within the CitySeg pipeline:

  • main.py: Entry point of the application, responsible for initializing and running the segmentation pipeline.
  • config.py: Defines configuration classes and handles loading and validating configuration settings.
  • pipeline.py: Implements the core segmentation pipeline, including model loading and inference.
  • processors.py: Contains classes for processing images, videos, and directories, managing the segmentation workflow.
  • segmentation_analyzer.py: Provides functionality for analyzing segmentation results, including computing statistics and generating reports.
  • video_file_iterator.py: Implements an iterator for efficiently processing multiple video files in a directory.
  • visualization_handler.py: Handles the visualization of segmentation results using color palettes.
  • file_handler.py: Manages file operations related to saving and loading segmentation data and metadata.
  • utils.py: Provides utility functions for various tasks, including data handling and logging.
  • palettes.py: Defines color palettes for different datasets used in segmentation.
  • exceptions.py: Custom exception classes for error handling throughout the pipeline.

This modular structure allows for easy maintenance and extension of the CitySeg pipeline, facilitating the addition of new features and models.

Logging

The pipeline uses the loguru library for flexible and configurable logging. You can set the log level and enable verbose output using command-line arguments:

python main.py --config path/to/your/config.yaml --log-level INFO # or DEBUG, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL or --verbose

Logs are output to both the console and a file (segmentation.log). The file log is in JSON format for easy parsing and analysis.

Extending CitySeg

To add support for new segmentation models:

  1. Implement a new model class in pipeline.py
  2. Update the create_segmentation_pipeline function in pipeline.py
  3. Update the configuration handling in config.py if necessary
