Official PyTorch implementation of the ICLR 2021 paper "You Only Need Adversarial Supervision for Semantic Image Synthesis". An extended version of the paper has been published in IJCV. The code allows the users to reproduce and extend the results reported in the study. Please cite the paper when reporting, reproducing or extending the results.

This repository implements the OASIS model, which generates realistic looking images from semantic label maps. In addition, many different images can be generated from any given label map by simply resampling a noise vector (first two rows of the figure below). The model also allows to just resample parts of the image (see the last two rows of the figure below). Check out the paper for details, as well as the appendix, which contains many additional examples.
First, clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/boschresearch/OASIS.git
cd OASIS
The code is tested for Python 3.7.6 and the packages listed in oasis.yml. The basic requirements are PyTorch and Torchvision. The easiest way to get going is to install the oasis conda environment via
conda env create --file oasis.yml
source activate oasis
For COCO-Stuff, Cityscapes or ADE20K, please follow the instructions for the dataset preparation as outlined in https://github.com/NVlabs/SPADE.
To train the model, execute the training scripts in the scripts folder. In these scripts you first need to specify the path to the data folder. Via the --name parameter the experiment can be given a unique identifier. The experimental results are then saved in the folder ./checkpoints, where a new folder for each run is created with the specified experiment name. You can also specify another folder for the checkpoints using the --checkpoints_dir parameter.
If you want to continue training, start the respective script with the --continue_train flag. Have a look at config.py for other options you can specify.
Training on 4 NVIDIA Tesla V100 (32GB) is recommended. Tip: For significantly faster training, set the num_workers parameter of the dataloader to a higher number, e.g. 8 (the default is 0).
To test a trained model, execute the testing scripts in the scripts folder. The --name parameter should correspond to the experiment name that you want to test, and the --checkpoints_dir should the folder where the experiment is saved (default: ./checkpoints). These scripts will generate images from a pretrained model in ./results/name/.
The FID is computed on the fly during training, using the popular PyTorch FID implementation from https://github.com/mseitzer/pytorch-fid. At the beginning of training, the inception moments of the real images are computed before the actual training loop starts. How frequently the FID should be evaluated is controlled via the parameter --freq_fid, which is set to 5000 steps by default. The inception net that is used for FID computation automatically downloads a pre-trained inception net checkpoint. If that automatic download fails, for instance because your server has restricted internet access, get the checkpoint named pt_inception-2015-12-05-6726825d.pth from here and place it in /utils/fid_folder/. In this case, do not forget to replace load_state_dict_from_url function accordingly.
The checkpoints for the pre-trained models are available here as zip files. Copy them into the checkpoints folder (the default is ./checkpoints, create it if it doesn't yet exist) and unzip them. The folder structure should be
checkpoints_dir
├── oasis_ade20k_pretrained
├── oasis_cityscapes_pretrained
└── oasis_coco_pretrained
You can generate images with a pre-trained checkpoint via test.py. Using the example of ADE20K:
python test.py --dataset_mode ade20k --name oasis_ade20k_pretrained \
--dataroot path_to/ADEChallenge2016
This script will create a folder named ./results in which the resulting images are saved.
If you want to continue training from this checkpoint, use train.py with the same --name parameter and add --continue_train --which_iter best.
