A dataset can be used by accessing DatasetCatalog for its data, or MetadataCatalog for its metadata (class names, etc).
-
This document explains how to setup the builtin datasets so they can be used by the above APIs. Training OneFormer with Custom Datasets gives a deeper dive on how to train OneFormer with custom datasets.
-
Detectron2 has builtin support for a few datasets. The datasets are assumed to exist in a directory specified by the environment variable
DETECTRON2_DATASETS
. Under this directory, detectron2 will look for datasets in the structure described below, if needed.$DETECTRON2_DATASETS/ ADEChallengeData2016/ cityscapes/ coco/ mapillary_vistas/
-
You can set the location for builtin datasets by
export DETECTRON2_DATASETS=/path/to/datasets
. If left unset, the default is./datasets
relative to your current working directory.

Install panopticapi by:
pip install git+https://github.com/cocodataset/panopticapi.git
-
Download the instance annotation from http://sceneparsing.csail.mit.edu/:
wget http://sceneparsing.csail.mit.edu/data/ChallengeData2017/annotations_instance.tar
-
Then, run
python datasets/prepare_ade20k_pan_seg.py
, to combine semantic and instance annotations for panoptic annotations. -
Run
python datasets/prepare_ade20k_ins_seg.py
, to extract instance annotations in COCO format.

Install cityscapes scripts by:
pip install git+https://github.com/mcordts/cityscapesScripts.git
-
To create labelTrainIds.png, first prepare the above structure, then run cityscapesescript with:
git clone https://github.com/mcordts/cityscapesScripts.git
CITYSCAPES_DATASET=/path/to/abovementioned/cityscapes python cityscapesScripts/cityscapesscripts/preparation/createTrainIdLabelImgs.py
These files are not needed for instance segmentation.
-
To generate Cityscapes panoptic dataset, run cityscapesescript with:
CITYSCAPES_DATASET=/path/to/abovementioned/cityscapes python cityscapesScripts/cityscapesscripts/preparation/createPanopticImgs.py
These files are not needed for semantic and instance segmentation.

Install panopticapi by:
pip install git+https://github.com/cocodataset/panopticapi.git
-
Then, run
python datasets/prepare_coco_semantic_annos_from_panoptic_annos.py
, to extract semantic annotations from panoptic annotations (only used for evaluation). -
Then run the following command to convert the panoptic json into instance json format (used for evaluation on instance segmentation task):
python datasets/panoptic2detection_coco_format.py --things_only

No preprocessing is needed for Mapillary Vistas on semantic and panoptic segmentation.
We do not evaluate for the instance segmentation task on the Mapillary Vistas dataset.
