Generating Multiple Objects at Spatially Distinct Locations

Pytorch implementation for reproducing the results from the paper Generating Multiple Objects at Spatially Distinct Locations by Tobias Hinz, Stefan Heinrich, and Stefan Wermter accepted for publication at the International Conference on Learning Representations 2019.

For more information and visualizations also see our blog post

Our poster can be found here

Have a look at our follow-up work Semantic Object Accuracy for Generative Text-to-Image Synthesis with available code.

Model-Architecture

Dependencies

  • python 2.7
  • pytorch 0.4.1

Please add the project folder to PYTHONPATH and install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Data

  • Multi-MNIST: adapted from here
    • contains the three data sets used in the paper: normal (three digits per image), split_digits (0-4 in top half of image, 5-9 in bottom half), and bottom_half_empty (no digits in bottom half of the image)
    • download our data, save it to data/ and extract
  • CLEVR: adapted from here
    • Main: download our data, save it to data/ and extract
    • CoGenT: download our data, save it to data/ and extract
  • MS-COCO:
    • download our preprocessed data (bounding boxes and bounding box labels), save it to data/ and extract
    • obtain the train and validation images from the 2014 split here, extract and save them in data/MS-COCO/train/ and data/MS-COCO/test/
    • for the StackGAN architecture: obtain the preprocessed char-CNN-RNN text embeddings from here and put the files in data/MS-COCO/train/ and data/MS-COCO/test/
    • for the AttnGAN architecture: obtain the preprocessed metadata and the pre-trained DAMSM model from here
      • extract the preprocessed metadata, then add the files downloaded in the first step (bounding boxes and bounding box labels) to the data/coco/coco/train/ and data/coco/coco/test/ folder
      • put the downloaded DAMSM model into code/coco/attngan/DAMSMencoders/ and extract

Training

  • to start training run sh train.sh data gpu-ids where you choose the desired data set and architecture (mnist/clevr/coco-stackgan-1/coco-stackgan-2/coco-attngan) and which/how many gpus to train on
  • e.g. to train on the Multi-MNIST data set on one GPU: sh train.sh mnist 0
  • e.g. to train the AttnGAN architecture on the MS-COCO data set on three GPUs: sh train.sh coco-attngan 0,1,2
  • training parameters can be adapted via code/dataset/cfg/dataset_train.yml
  • make sure the DATA_DIR in the respective code/dataset/cfg/dataset_train.yml points to the correct path
  • results are stored in output/

Evaluating

  • update the eval cfg file in code/dataset/cfg/dataset_eval.yml and adapt the path of NET_G to point to the model you want to use (default path is to the pretrained models linked below)
  • run sh sample.sh mnist/clevr/coco-stackgan-2/coco-attngan to generate images using the specified model

Pretrained Models

  • pretrained model for Multi-MNIST: download, save to models and extract
  • pretrained model for CLEVR: download, save to models and extract
  • pretrained model for MS-COCO:
    • StackGAN architecture: download, save to models and extract
    • AttnGAN architecture: download, save to models and extract

Acknowledgement

  • Code for the experiments on Multi-MNIST and CLEVR data sets is adapted from StackGAN-Pytorch.
  • Code for the experiments on MS-COCO with the StackGAN architecture is adapted from StackGAN-Pytorch, while the code with the AttnGAN architecture is adapted from AttnGAN.
