Running Alexnet on VOC2012 using pytorch for object detection

Updated: Sep 12, 2020

After scouring the internet for a couple of days looking for a code to run alexnet on VOC12 data for classification ending in vain, I had to write the integrated code myself and I a sharing the same for anyone to reuse.


Due to lack of time I am posting the codes for sorting & training separately. I will make an update when I get time, to write a single unified code. Meanwhile if anyone faces any error, just drop a comment (or email to anurag@anuragmeena.com) with details (including pytorh and torchvision versions) and I will look into it


I had a choice to write a custom dataloader or convert the data into a pre-defined data loader structure. I chose the latter and the image_sort.py code basically converts the VOC12 data into Imgefolder data structure. Just change the root directory string in the image_sort.py and run it.

This would create the following folders with hierarchvaliy:

|classes |train (training set) |<folders with class names> |val (validation set) |<folders with classnames>


After this go to main.py . It contains the actual code to initialize your neeural network and configure your net (whether you want to download pre trained model, what is your input, how many output classes you have, )
