However, due to the high memory costs, existing dense pixel-to-pixel harmonization methods are mainly focusing on processing low-resolution (LR) images. Some recent works resort to combining with color-to-color transformations but are either limited to certain resolutions or heavily depend on hand-crafted image filters. In this work, we explore leveraging the implicit neural representation (INR) and propose a novel ***image Harmonization method based on Implicit neural Networks (HINet)***, which to the best of our knowledge, is ***the first dense pixel-to-pixel method applicable to HR images without any hand-crafted filter design***. Inspired by the Retinex theory, we decouple the MLPs into two parts to respectively capture the content and environment of composite images. A Low-Resolution Image Prior (LRIP) network is designed to alleviate the Boundary Inconsistency problem, and we also propose new designs for the training and inference process. Extensive experiments have demonstrated the effectiveness of our method compared with state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, some interesting and practical applications of the proposed method are explored. ## Requirements 1. Software Requirements - Python: 3.8 - CUDA: 11.3 - cuDNN: 8.4.1 To install other requirements: ``` pip install -r requirements.txt ``` 2. Datasets - We train and evaluate on the [iHarmony4 dataset](https://github.com/bcmi/Image-Harmonization-Dataset-iHarmony4). Please download the dataset in advance, and arrange them into the following structure: ``` ├── dataset_path ├── HAdobe5k ├── composite_images ├── masks ├── real_images ├── HCOCO ├── Hday2night ├── HFlickr IHD_test.txt IHD_train.txt ``` - Before training we resize HAdobe5k subdataset so that each side is smaller than 1024. This is for quick data loading. The resizing script can refer to [resize_Adobe.py](tools/resize_Adobe.py). - For training or evaluating on the original resolution of iHarmony4 dataset. Please newly create a `HAdobe5kori` directory with the original HAdobe5k images in it. - If you want to train and evaluate only on HAdobe5k subdataset (see Table 1 in the paper), you can modify the `IHD_train.txt` and `IHD_test.txt` in [train.py](train.py) to only contain the HAdobe5k images. 3. Pre-trained Models - We adopt [HRNetV2](https://github.com/HRNet/HRNet-Image-Classification) as our encoder, you can download the weight from [here](https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=%21AMkPimlmClRvmpw&id=F7FD0B7F26543CEB%21112&cid=F7FD0B7F26543CEB&parId=root&parQt=sharedby&parCid=C8304F01C1A85932&o=OneUp) and save the weight in `pretrained_models` directory. - In the following table, we provide several model weights pretrained under different resolutions (Correspond to Table 1 in the paper): | Download Link | Model Descriptions | |:--------------------------------------------------------:|:-------------------------------------------------------------------:| | [Resolution_RAW_iHarmony4.pth][Resolution_RAW_iHarmony4] | Train by RSC strategy with original resolution iHarmony4 dataset | | [Resolution_256_iHarmony4.pth][Resolution_256_iHarmony4] | Train with 256*256 resolution iHarmony4 dataset | | [Resolution_RAW_HAdobe5K.pth][Resolution_RAW_HAdobe5K] | Train by RSC strategy with original resolution HAdobe5k subdataset | | [Resolution_2048_HAdobe5K.pth][Resolution_2048_HAdobe5K] | Train by RSC strategy with 2048*2048 resolution HAdobe5k subdataset | | [Resolution_1024_HAdobe5K.pth][Resolution_1024_HAdobe5K] | Train by RSC strategy with 1024*1024 resolution HAdobe5k subdataset | [Resolution_RAW_iHarmony4]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O9faWNk54mIzMaGZ1tmgm0EJpH20a-Fl/view?usp=drive_link [Resolution_256_iHarmony4]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xym96LTP9a75UseDWGW2KRN1gyl3HPyM/view?usp=sharing [Resolution_RAW_HAdobe5K]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JeUS5inuOM0pASKfu-tK9K7E5pGkP570/view?usp=drive_link [Resolution_2048_HAdobe5K]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18RxTfZsPEoi6kSS_UVEsUBYRBHAl4MfB/view?usp=drive_link [Resolution_1024_HAdobe5K]: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cOY74mN8gIz66watyoobZ1knrigkQyb5/view?usp=sharing ## Visualization GUI We provide a GUI based on Gradio for visualizing the intermediate results of our method. You can run the following command to start it locally, or make use of our provided [Huggingface Space](https://huggingface.co/spaces/WindVChen/INR-Harmon). ```bash python app.py ``` ## Training The intermediate output (including checkpoint, visualization, log.txt) will be saved in directory `logs/exp`. ### Train in low resolution (LR) mode ```bash python train.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --base_size 256 --input_size 256 --INR_input_size 256 ``` - `dataset_path`: the path of the iHarmony4 dataset. - `base_size`: the size of the input image to encoder. - `input_size`: the size of the target resolution. - `INR_input_size`: the size of the input image to the INR decoder. - `hr_train`: whether to train in high resolution (HR) mode, i.e., using RSC strategy (See Section 3.4 in the paper). - `isFullRes`: whether to train in full/original resolution mode. - (More parameters' information could be found in codes ...) ### Train in high resolution (HR) mode (E.g, 2048x2048) If **not use RSC strategy**, the training command is as follows: (For a single RTX 3090, it will lead to out-of-memory even `batch_size` is set to 2.) ```bash python train.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --base_size 256 --input_size 2048 --INR_input_size 2048 ``` If **use RSC strategy**, the training command is as follows: (For a single RTX 3090, `batch_size` can set up to 6.) ```bash python train.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --base_size 256 --input_size 2048 --INR_input_size 2048 --hr_train ``` ### Train in original resolution mode ```bash python train.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --base_size 256 --hr_train --isFullRes ``` ## Evaluation The intermediate output (including visualizations, log.txt) will be saved in directory `logs/test`. **Notice:** Due to the resolution-agnostic characteristic of INR, you can evaluate dataset at any resolution not matter which resolution the model is trained on. Please refer to Table 4 and Table 5 in the paper. ### Evaluation in low resolution (LR) mode ```bash python inference.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --pretrained {pretrained_weight} --base_size 256 --input_size 256 --INR_input_size 256 ``` ### Evaluation in high resolution (HR) mode (E.g, 2048x2048) ```bash python inference.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --pretrained {pretrained_weight} --base_size 256 --input_size 2048 --INR_input_size 2048 ``` ### Evaluation in original resolution mode ```bash python inference.py --dataset_path {dataset_path} --pretrained {pretrained_weight} --base_size 256 --hr_train --isFullRes ``` ## Inference We have provided demo images (2K and 6K) in [demo](demo). Feel free to play around them. **Notice:** Due to the resolution-agnostic characteristic of INR, you can inference images at any resolution not matter which resolution the model is trained on. Please refer to Table 4 and Table 5 in the paper. ### Inference on square images (fast & low cost) If you want to inference on square images, please use the command here. Note that this code only support square images with resolution of multiplies of 256. Some other requirements will be listed in cmd prints (if error) when you run the code. ```bash python efficient_inference.py --split_resolution {split_resolution} --composite_image {composite_image_path} --mask {mask_path} --save_path --{save_path} --pretrained {pretrained_weight} ``` - `split_resolution`: the resolution of the split patches. (E.g., 512 means the input image will be split into 512x512 patches.) These patches will finally be assembled back to the resolution of the original image. - `composite_image`: the path of the composite image. You can try with the provided images in [demo](demo). - `mask`: the path of the mask. You can try with the provided masks in [demo](demo). - `save_path`: the path of the output image. - `pretrained`: the path of the pretrained weight. ### Inference on arbitrary resolution images (slow, high cost, but support any resolution) If the former inference script cannot meet your needs and you want to inference on arbitrary resolution images, please use the command here. Note that this script will be slower and cost more memory for a same resolution (***But anyway, it supports arbitrary resolution***). If you encounter out-of-memory error, please try to reduce the `split_num` parameter below. (Our script will also have some prints that can guide you to do this) ```bash python inference_for_arbitrary_resolution.py --split_num {split_num} --composite_image {composite_image_path} --mask {mask_path} --save_path --{save_path} --pretrained {pretrained_weight} ``` - `split_num`: the number of splits for the input image. (E.g., 4 means the input image will be split into 4x4=16 patches.) - `composite_image`: the path of the composite image. You can try with the provided images in [demo](demo). - `mask`: the path of the mask. You can try with the provided masks in [demo](demo). - `save_path`: the path of the output image. - `pretrained`: the path of the pretrained weight. ## Results ![Metrics](assets/metrics.png#pic_center) ![Visual comparisons](assets/visualizations.png#pic_center) ![Visual comparisons2](assets/visualizations2.png#pic_center) ## Citation & Acknowledgments If you find this paper useful in your research, please consider citing: ``` @article{chen2023dense, title={Dense Pixel-to-Pixel Harmonization via Continuous Image Representation}, author={Chen, Jianqi and Zhang, Yilan and Zou, Zhengxia and Chen, Keyan and Shi, Zhenwei}, journal={arXiv preprint arXiv:2303.01681}, year={2023} } ``` ## License This project is licensed under the Apache-2.0 license.
