Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: Image-Adaptive YOLO training procedure
Open Source Code Yes The source code can be found at https://github.com/wenyyu/ImageAdaptive-YOLO.
Open Datasets Yes We build upon the classic VOC dataset (Everingham et al. 2010) a VOC_Foggy dataset according to the atmospheric scattering model (Narasimhan and Nayar 2002). Moreover, RTTS (Li et al. 2018) is a relatively comprehensive real-world dataset available in foggy conditions... PSCAL VOC (Everingham et al. 2010) and the relatively comprehensive low-light detection dataset Ex Dark (Loh and Chan 2019) both contain ten categories of objects...
Dataset Splits No The paper describes how training and test sets (e.g., VOC_norm_trainval, VOC_norm_test) are formed. However, it does not provide specific details on a separate validation set split (e.g., percentages or counts) needed to reproduce the data partitioning for validation.
Hardware Specification Yes We use Tensorflow for our experiments and run it on the Tesla V100 GPU.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions 'Tensorflow' but does not specify a version number or any other software dependencies with version numbers.
Experiment Setup Yes The backbone network for all experiments is Darknet-53. During training, We randomly resize the image to (32N 32N), where N [9, 19]. Moreover, the data augmentation methods like image flipping, cropping and transformation are applied to expand the training dataset. Our IA-YOLO model is trained by the Adam optimizer (Kingma and Ba 2014) with 80 epochs. The starting learning rate is 10 4 and the batch size is 6.
