The implementation for the paper "TTNet: Real-time temporal and spatial video analysis of table tennis"
An introduction of the project could be found here (from the authors)


Demo

1. Features

  • Ball detection global stage

  • Ball detection local stage (refinement)

  • Events Spotting detection (Bounce and Net hit)

  • Semantic Segmentation (Human, table, and scoreboard)

  • Multi-Task learning

  • Distributed Data Parallel Training

  • Enable/Disable modules in the TTNet model

  • Smooth labeling for event spotting

  • TensorboardX

  • (Update 2020.06.23): Training much faster, achieve > 120 FPS in the inference phase on a single GPU (GTX1080Ti).

  • (Update 2020.07.03): The implementation could achieve comparative results with the reported results in the TTNet paper.

  • (Update 2020.07.06): There are several limitations of the TTNet Paper (hints: Loss function, input size, and 2 more). I have implemented the task with a new approach and a new model. Now the new model could achieve:

    • > 130FPS inference,
    • ~0.96 IoU score for the segmentation task
    • < 4 pixels (in the full HD resolution (1920x1080)) of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for the ball detection task
    • ~97% percentage of correction events (PCE) and smooth PCE (SPCE).

2.3. How to run

2.3.1. Training

2.3.1.1. Single machine, single gpu
python main.py --gpu_idx 0

By default (as the above command), there are 4 modules in the TTNet model: global stage, local stage, event spotting, segmentation. You can disable one of the modules, except the global stage module.
An important note is if you disable the local stage module, the event spotting module will be also disabled.

  • You can disable the segmentation stage:
python main.py --gpu_idx 0 --no_seg
  • You can disable the event spotting module:
python main.py --gpu_idx 0 --no_event
  • You can disable the local stage, event spotting, segmentation modules:
python main.py --gpu_idx 0 --no_local --no_seg --no_event
2.3.1.2. Multi-processing Distributed Data Parallel Training

We should always use the nccl backend for multi-processing distributed training since it currently provides the best distributed training performance.

  • Single machine (node), multiple GPUs
python main.py --dist-url 'tcp://127.0.0.1:29500' --dist-backend 'nccl' --multiprocessing-distributed --world-size 1 --rank 0
  • Two machines (two nodes), multiple GPUs

First machine

python main.py --dist-url 'tcp://IP_OF_NODE1:FREEPORT' --dist-backend 'nccl' --multiprocessing-distributed --world-size 2 --rank 0

Second machine

python main.py --dist-url 'tcp://IP_OF_NODE2:FREEPORT' --dist-backend 'nccl' --multiprocessing-distributed --world-size 2 --rank 1

2.3.2. Training stratergy

The performance of the TTNet strongly depends on the global stage for ball detection. Hence, It's necessary to train the global ball stage module of the TTNet model first.

  • 1st phase: Train the global and segmentation modules with 30 epochs
./train_1st_phase.sh
  • 2nd phase: Load the trained weights to the global and the segmentation part, initialize the weight of the local stage with the weights of the global stage. In this phase, we train and just update weights of the local and the event modules. (30 epochs)
./train_2nd_phase.sh
  • 3rd phase: Fine tune all modules. Train the network with only 30 epochs
./train_3rd_phase.sh

2.3.3. Visualizing training progress

The Tensorboard was used to save loss values on the training set and the validation set. Execute the below command on the working terminal:

    cd logs/<task directory>/tensorboard/
    tensorboard --logdir=./

Then open the web browser and go to: http://localhost:6006/

2.3.4. Evaluation

The thresholds of the segmentation and event spotting tasks could be set in test.sh bash shell scripts.

./test_3rd_phase.sh

2.3.5. Demo:

Run a demonstration with an input video:

./demo.sh
