Running evaluation code without training
I am trying to perform evaluation task for your code without doing the trainig process for myself. I am using pre-trained model ([pretrained.pth.tar]) & spynet weights available in the Evaluation section of this GitHub page. But I am not getting results (for evaluation) as described in the paper. I have genereated LR images using cv2.resize() with cv2.INTER_CUBIC as the interpolation parameter (image alreday converted to LAB color scheme using cv2.COLOR_BGR2LAB ). Should i have to re-train the model myself or should i generate LR frames using MatlaB resize(as told in the paper) or I am doing some other mistake. Please guide.
My results example: For the 'walk' video frames of the dataset Vid4 i am getting PSNR-RGB of about 21.08.
Evalution command i used is : !python evaluate.py --lr_dir=lr-set-lab --key_dir=key-set --target_dir=hr-set --output_dir=sr-set --model_dir=experiments/bix4_keyvsrc_attn --restore_file=pretrained --file_fmt="frame%d.png"
Hi @AtiqEmenent, Matlab resize performs anti-aliasing along with the interpolation, which gives very different results compared to cv2.resize. This was something I stumbled upon during the development as well. But most of the prior works use Matlab's function, so I used the same for easier comparison. Here's a reference Matlab function for bicubic downsampling. Also make sure normalization is similar to what the pretrained model uses here during the RGB to lab conversion.
hi, I want to know if all input images need to be converted to the LAB color space.
