Gradcam++ Architecture

Performance of grad-cam++ with respect to grad-cam

alt text Above we do a comparision of the performance of gradcam++ with respect to grad-cam. Gradcam++ does a better image localization that Gradcam, not only in scenarios where there is more than one object of same class in an image, but also in cases where there is a single object in an image.

Implementation in python using tensorflow 1.3.
Kindly download the pretrained weights of the vgg16 network (vgg16.npy) from the following link, and copy the file to the models/ subdirectory.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzS5KZjihEdyUjBHcGFNRnk4bFU?usp=sharing

USAGE:

python classify.py -f images/water-bird.JPEG -gpu 3 -o output.jpeg

Arguments:

  • f: path to input image
  • gpu: the gpu id to use, 0-indexed
  • l: class label, default is -1 (chooses the class predicted by the model)
  • o: Specify output file name for Grad-CAM++ visualization, default is output.jpeg. All results would be saved in the output/ subdirectory.

For Help:

python classify.py -h

The above code is for the vgg16 network, pre-trained on imagenet.
We tested our code on tensorflow 1.3, compatibility with other versions is not guaranteed.
