Foreground Guidance and Multi-Layer Feature Fusion for Unsupervised Object Discovery with Transformers

This is the official implementation of the Foreground Guidance and Multi-Layer Feature Fusion for Unsupervised Object Discovery with Transformers (WACV2023)

Preparation

Step 1. Please install PyTorch.

Step 2. To install other dependencies, please launch the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Preparation

PASCAL-VOC

Please download the PASCAL VOC07 and PASCAL VOC12 datasets (link) and put the data in the folder datasets.

COCO

Please download the COCO dataset and put the data in datasets/COCO. We use COCO20k (a subset of COCO train2014) following previous works.

The structure of the datasets folder will be like:

├── datasets
│  ├── VOCdevkit
│  │  ├── VOC2007
│  │  │  ├──ImageSets & Annotations & ...
│  │  ├── VOC2012
