Release 09/22/2020
- Incorporated (a) distributed data parallel trainng and (b) fusedSGD optimizer, resulting in 2x faster training.
This repository contains the code for training and evaluation of our ICCV 2019 work, which was presented as an Oral presentation. FAZE is a framework for few-shot adaptation of gaze estimation networks, consisting of equivariance learning (via the DT-ED or Disentangling Transforming Encoder-Decoder architecture) and meta-learning with gaze-direction embeddings as input.

- Pre-processing Code GitHub Repository (also included as a submodule in this repository)
Pre-process the GazeCapture and MPIIGaze datasets using the code-base at https://github.com/swook/faze_preprocess which is also available as a git submodule at the relative path, preprocess/.
If you have already cloned this few_shot_gaze repository without pulling the submodules, please run:
git submodule update --init --recursive
After the dataset preprocessing procedures have been performed, we can move on to the next steps.
This codebase should run on most standard Linux systems. We specifically used Ubuntu
Please install the following prerequisites manually (as well as their dependencies), by following the instructions found below:
- PyTorch 1.3 - https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/
- NVIDIA Apex - https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex#quick-start
- please note that only NVIDIA Volta and newer architectures can benefit from AMP training via NVIDIA Apex.
The remaining Python package dependencies can be installed by running:
pip3 install --user --upgrade -r requirements.txt
You can obtain a copy of the pre-trained weights for the Disentangling Transforming Encoder-Decoder and for the various MAML models from the following location.
cd src/
wget -N https://files.ait.ethz.ch/projects/faze/outputs_of_full_train_test_and_plot.zip
unzip -o outputs_of_full_train_test_and_plot.zip
Run the all-in-one example bash script with:
cd src/
bash full_train_test_and_plot.bash
The bash script should be self-explanatory and can be edited to replicate the final FAZE model evaluation procedure, given that hardware requirements are satisfied (8x GPUs, where each are Tesla V100 GPUs with 32GB of memory).
The pre-trained DT-ED weights should be loaded automatically by the script 1_train_dt_ed.py. Please note that this model can take a long time to train when training from scratch, so we recommend adjusting batch sizes and the using multiple GPUs (the code is multi-GPU-ready).
The Meta-Learning step is also very time consuming, particularly because it must be run for every value of k or number of calibration samples. The code pertinent to this step is 2_meta_learning.py, and its execution is recommended to be done in parallel as shown in full_train_test_and_plot.bash.
When the full pipeline successfully runs, you will find some outputs in the path src/outputs_of_full_train_test_and_plot, in particular:
- walks/: mp4 videos of latent space walks in gaze direction and head orientation
- Zg_OLR1e-03_IN5_ILR1e-05_Net64/: outputs of the meta-learning step.
- Zg_OLR1e-03_IN5_ILR1e-05_Net64 MAML MPIIGaze.pdf: plotted results of the few-shot learning evaluations on MPIIGaze.
- Zg_OLR1e-03_IN5_ILR1e-05_Net64 MAML GazeCapture (test).pdf: plotted results of the few-shot learning evaluations on the GazeCapture test set.
We also provide a realtime demo that runs with live input from a webcam in the demo/ folder. Please check the separate
demo instructions for details of
how to setup and run it.
