Please follow the instructions to run the code.

• See the sgi_net.yml configuration file. We provide an user-friendly configuring method via Conda system, and you can create a new Conda environment using the command:

conda env create -f sgi_net.yml
conda activate sgi_net

• Install cityscapesscripts with pip

cd cityscapesScripts
pip install -e .

• Install nvidia-apex using

sh install_nvidia_apex.sh

• Please download the Cityscapes dataset from the official website (registration required). After downloading, please put these files under the ~/datasets/cityscapes/ folder and run the following command in order to generate the correct segmentation maps

  cd cityscapesScripts
  CITYSCAPES_DATASET=~/datasets/cityscapes/
  python cityscapesscripts/preparation/createTrainIdLabelImgs.py
  

  If you want to use a different number of labels for the segmentation you can change them in the cityscapesScripts/cityscapesscripts/helpers/labels.py file.

  You should end up with the following structure:

  │   ├── leftImg8bit_sequence
  │   │   ├── train
  │   │   │   ├── aachen

• Then run the script src/preprocess_city.py in order to prepare the dataset.

  Usage

  The script takes as input three parameters:

  • dataroot: Folder where the Cityscape dataset has been extracted.
  • resize_size: New size of the images (width,height). By default the images will not be resized. Default value: (2048,1024)
  • use_multiprocessing: Run the preprocessing in parallel. By default is disabled

  Example

  cd src
  python preprocess_city.py --dataroot ~/datasets/cityscapes/ --resize_size 512,256 --use_multiprocessing
  

• Copy the train list and the evaluation list from file_list/cityscapes into the dataroot ~/datasets/cityscapes/

  cp file_list/cityscapes/* ~/dataset/cityscapes/
