First you have to make sure that you have all dependencies in place. The simplest way to do so, is to use anaconda.
You can create an anaconda environment called giraffe using
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate giraffe
You can now test our code on the provided pre-trained models. For example, simply run
python render.py configs/256res/cars_256_pretrained.yaml
This script should create a model output folder out/cars256_pretrained.
The animations are then saved to the respective subfolders in out/cars256_pretrained/rendering.
To train a model from scratch or to use our ground truth activations for evaluation, you have to download the respective dataset.
For this, please run
bash scripts/download_dataset.sh
and following the instructions. This script should download and unpack the data automatically into the data/ folder.
To render images of a trained model, run
python render.py CONFIG.yaml
where you replace CONFIG.yaml with the correct config file.
The easiest way is to use a pre-trained model.
You can do this by using one of the config files which are indicated with *_pretrained.yaml.
For example, for our model trained on Cars at 256x256 pixels, run
python render.py configs/256res/cars_256_pretrained.yaml
or for celebA-HQ at 256x256 pixels, run
python render.py configs/256res/celebahq_256_pretrained.yaml
Our script will automatically download the model checkpoints and render images.
You can find the outputs in the out/*_pretrained folders.
Please note that the config files *_pretrained.yaml are only for evaluation or rendering, not for training new models: when these configs are used for training, the model will be trained from scratch, but during inference our code will still use the pre-trained model.
For evaluation of the models, we provide the script eval.py. You can run it using
python eval.py CONFIG.yaml
The script generates 20000 images and calculates the FID score.
Note: For some experiments, the numbers in the paper might slightly differ because we used the evaluation protocol from GRAF to fairly compare against the methods reported in GRAF.
Finally, to train a new network from scratch, run
python train.py CONFIG.yaml
where you replace CONFIG.yaml with the name of the configuration file you want to use.
You can monitor on http://localhost:6006 the training process using tensorboard:
cd OUTPUT_DIR
tensorboard --logdir ./logs
where you replace OUTPUT_DIR with the respective output directory. For available training options, please take a look at configs/default.yaml.
For convinience, we have implemented a 2D-GAN baseline which closely follows this GAN_stability repo. For example, you can train a 2D-GAN on CompCars at 64x64 pixels similar to our GIRAFFE method by running
python train.py configs/64res/cars_64_2dgan.yaml
If you want to train a model on a new dataset, you first need to generate ground truth activations for the intermediate or final FID calculations.
For this, you can use the script in scripts/calc_fid/precalc_fid.py.
For example, if you want to generate an FID file for the comprehensive cars dataset at 64x64 pixels, you need to run
python scripts/precalc_fid.py "data/comprehensive_cars/images/*.jpg" --regex True --gpu 0 --out-file "data/comprehensive_cars/fid_files/comprehensiveCars_64.npz" --img-size 64
or for LSUN churches, you need to run
python scripts/precalc_fid.py path/to/LSUN --class-name scene_categories/church_outdoor_train_lmdb --lsun True --gpu 0 --out-file data/church/fid_files/church_64.npz --img-size 64
Note: We apply the same transformations to the ground truth images for this FID calculation as we do during training. If you want to use your own dataset, you need to adjust the image transformations in the script accordingly. Further, you might need to adjust the object-level and camera transformations to your dataset.
We provide the script eval_files.py for evaluating the FID score of your own generated images.
For example, if you would like to evaluate your images on CompCars at 64x64 pixels, save them to an npy file and run
python eval_files.py --input-file "path/to/your/images.npy" --gt-file "data/comprehensive_cars/fid_files/comprehensiveCars_64.npz"
