PyTorch implementation of Deformable Convolution
!!!Warning: There is some issues in this implementation and this repo is not maintained any more, please consider using for example: TORCHVISION.OPS.DEFORM_CONV
- By Wei OUYANG @ Institut Pasteur
- Thanks to Felix Lau's Keras/TensorFlow implementation: ~~https://github.com/felixlaumon/deform-conv~~ (https://github.com/kastnerkyle/deform-conv)
TODO List
- [x] implement offsets mapping in pytorch
- [x] all tests passed
- [x] deformable convolution module
- [x] Fine-tuning the deformable convolution modules
- [x] scaled mnist demo
- [x] improve speed with cached grid array
- [ ] use MNIST dataset from pytorch (instead of Keras)
- [ ] support input image with different width and height
- [ ] benchmark with tensorflow implementation
