Packages

• train contains tools for training the network for semantic segmentation.
• eval contains tools for evaluating/visualizing the network's output.
• trained_models Contains the trained models used in the papers.

Requirements

The Cityscapes dataset, which can be downloaded here.

Torch Library (installation tutorial) with CUDA and CuDNN backends.

NOTE: The code has been tested in Ubuntu 16.04 and Torch7 with CUDA 8.0 and CuDNN 5.1. It should work with other versions but we cannot guarantee it.

Usage

Usage and examples for either training or evaluating the models are described in the READMEs of each section.
