[NEW!] GAN Compression is accepted by T-PAMI! We released our T-PAMI version in the arXiv v4!

[NEW!] We release the codes of our interactive demo and include the TVM tuned model. It achieves 8FPS on Jetson Nano GPU now!

[NEW!] Add support to the MUNIT, a multimodal unsupervised image-to-image translation approach! Please follow the test commands to test the pre-trained models and the tutorial to train your own models!

We introduce GAN Compression, a general-purpose method for compressing conditional GANs. Our method reduces the computation of widely-used conditional GAN models, including pix2pix, CycleGAN, MUNIT, and GauGAN, by 9-29x while preserving the visual fidelity. Our method is effective for a wide range of generator architectures, learning objectives, and both paired and unpaired settings.

Overview

GAN Compression framework: ① Given a pre-trained teacher generator G', we distill a smaller “once-for-all” student generator G that contains all possible channel numbers through weight sharing. We choose different channel numbers for the student generator G at each training step. ② We then extract many sub-generators from the “once-for-all” generator and evaluate their performance. No retraining is needed, which is the advantage of the “once-for-all” generator. ③ Finally, we choose the best sub-generator given the compression ratio target and performance target (FID or mIoU) using either brute-force or evolutionary search method. Optionally, we perform additional fine-tuning, and obtain the final compressed model.

Performance

GAN Compression reduces the computation of pix2pix, cycleGAN and GauGAN by 9-21x, and model size by 4.6-33x.

Cityscapes Dataset

For the Cityscapes dataset, we cannot provide it due to license issue. Please download the dataset from https://cityscapes-dataset.com and use the script prepare_cityscapes_dataset.py to preprocess it. You need to download gtFine_trainvaltest.zip and leftImg8bit_trainvaltest.zip and unzip them in the same folder. For example, you may put gtFine and leftImg8bit in database/cityscapes-origin. You need to prepare the dataset with the following commands:

python datasets/get_trainIds.py database/cityscapes-origin/gtFine/
python datasets/prepare_cityscapes_dataset.py \
--gtFine_dir database/cityscapes-origin/gtFine \
--leftImg8bit_dir database/cityscapes-origin/leftImg8bit \
--output_dir database/cityscapes \
--train_table_path datasets/train_table.txt \
--val_table_path datasets/val_table.txt

You will get a preprocessed dataset in database/cityscapes and a mapping table (used to compute mIoU) in dataset/table.txt.

To support mIoU computation, you need to download a pre-trained DRN model drn-d-105_ms_cityscapes.pth from http://go.yf.io/drn-cityscapes-models. By default, we put the drn model in the root directory of the repo. Then you can test our compressed models on cityscapes after you have downloaded our models.

COCO-Stuff Dataset

We follow the same COCO-Stuff dataset preparation as NVlabs/spade. Specifically, you need to download train2017.zip, val2017.zip, stuffthingmaps_trainval2017.zip, and annotations_trainval2017.zip from nightrome/cocostuff. The images, labels, and instance maps should be arranged in the same directory structure as in datasets/coco_stuff. In particular, we used an instance map that combines both the boundaries of "things instance map" and "stuff label map". To do this, we used a simple script datasets/coco_generate_instance_map.py.

To support mIoU computation, you need to download a pre-trained DeeplabV2 model deeplabv2_resnet101_msc-cocostuff164k-100000.pth and also put it in the root directory of the repo.

Performance of Released Models

Here we show the performance of all our released models:

Training

Please refer to the tutorial of Fast GAN Compression and GAN Compression on how to train models on our datasets and your own.

FID Computation

To compute the FID score, you need to get some statistical information from the groud-truth images of your dataset. We provide a script get_real_stat.py to extract statistical information. For example, for the edges2shoes dataset, you could run the following command:

python get_real_stat.py \
--dataroot database/edges2shoes-r \
--output_path real_stat/edges2shoes-r_B.npz \
--direction AtoB

For paired image-to-image translation (pix2pix and GauGAN), we calculate the FID between generated test images to real test images. For unpaired image-to-image translation (CycleGAN), we calculate the FID between generated test images to real training+test images. This allows us to use more images for a stable FID evaluation, as done in previous unconditional GANs research. The difference of the two protocols is small. The FID of our compressed CycleGAN model increases by 4 when using real test images instead of real training+test images.
