这几天一直在用Pytorch来复现文本检测领域的CTPN论文，本文章将从数据处理、训练标签生成、神经网络搭建、损失函数设计、训练主过程编写等这几个方面来一步一步复现CTPN。CTPN算法理论可以参考这里。
我们的训练选择天池ICPR2018和MSRA_TD500两个数据集，天池ICPR的数据集为网络图像，都是一些淘宝商家上传到淘宝的一些商品介绍图像，其标签方式参考了ICDAR2015的数据标签格式，即一个文本框用4个坐标来表示，即左上、右上、右下、左下四个坐标，共八个值，记作[x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3 x4 y4]
天池ICPR2018数据集的风格如下，字体形态格式颜色多变，多嵌套于物体之中，识别难度大：
MSRA_TD500使微软收集的一个文本检测和识别的一个数据集，里面的图像多是街景图，背景比较复杂，但文本位置比较明显，一目了然。因为MSRA_TD500的标签格式不一样，最后一个参数表示矩形框的旋转角度。
所以我们第一步就是将这两个数据集的标签格式统一，我的做法是将MSRA数据集格式改为ICDAR格式，方便后面的模型训练。因为MSRA_TD500采取的标签格式是[index difficulty_label x y w h angle]，所以我们需要根据这个文本框的旋转角度来求得水平文本框旋转后的4个坐标位置。实现如下：
"""This file is to change MSRA_TD500 dataset format to ICDAR2015 dataset format.MSRA_TD500 format: [index difficulty_label x y w h angle]ICDAR2015 format: [left_top_x left_top_y right_top_X right_top_y right_bottom_x right_bottom_y left_bottom_x left_bottom_y]"""import mathimport cv2import os# 求旋转后矩形的4个坐标def get_box_img(x, y, w, h, angle): # 矩形框中点(x0,y0) x0 = x + w/2 y0 = y + h/2 l = math.sqrt(pow(w/2, 2) + pow(h/2, 2)) # 即对角线的一半 # angle小于0，逆时针转 if angle < 0: a1 = -angle + math.atan(h / float(w)) # 旋转角度-对角线与底线所成的角度 a2 = -angle - math.atan(h / float(w)) # 旋转角度+对角线与底线所成的角度 pt1 = (x0 - l * math.cos(a2), y0 + l * math.sin(a2)) pt2 = (x0 + l * math.cos(a1), y0 - l * math.sin(a1)) pt3 = (x0 + l * math.cos(a2), y0 - l * math.sin(a2)) # x0+左下点旋转后在水平线上的投影, y0-左下点在垂直线上的投影，显然逆时针转时，左下点上一和左移了。 pt4 = (x0 - l * math.cos(a1), y0 + l * math.sin(a1)) else: a1 = angle + math.atan(h / float(w)) a2 = angle - math.atan(h / float(w)) pt1 = (x0 - l * math.cos(a1), y0 - l * math.sin(a1)) pt2 = (x0 + l * math.cos(a2), y0 + l * math.sin(a2)) pt3 = (x0 + l * math.cos(a1), y0 + l * math.sin(a1)) pt4 = (x0 - l * math.cos(a2), y0 - l * math.sin(a2)) return [pt1[0], pt1[1], pt2[0], pt2[1], pt3[0], pt3[1], pt4[0], pt4[1]]def read_file(path): result = [] for line in open(path): info = [] data = line.split(' ') info.append(int(data[2])) info.append(int(data[3])) info.append(int(data[4])) info.append(int(data[5])) info.append(float(data[6])) info.append(data[0]) result.append(info) return resultif __name__ == '__main__': file_path = '/home/ljs/OCR_dataset/MSRA-TD500/test/' save_img_path = '../dataset/OCR_dataset/ctpn/test_im/' save_gt_path = '../dataset/OCR_dataset/ctpn/test_gt/' file_list = os.listdir(file_path) for f in file_list: if '.gt' in f: continue name = f[0:8] txt_path = file_path + name + '.gt' im_path = file_path + f im = cv2.imread(im_path) coordinate = read_file(txt_path) # 仿照ICDAR格式，图片名字写做img_xx.jpg，对应的标签文件写做gt_img_xx.txt cv2.imwrite(save_img_path + name.lower() + '.jpg', im) save_gt = open(save_gt_path + 'gt_' + name.lower() + '.txt', 'w') for i in coordinate: box = get_box_img(i[0], i[1], i[2], i[3], i[4]) box = [int(box[i]) for i in range(len(box))] box = [str(box[i]) for i in range(len(box))] save_gt.write(','.join(box)) save_gt.write('\n')经过格式处理后，我们两份数据集算是整理好了。当然我们还需要对整个数据集划分为训练集和测试集，我的文件组织习惯如下：train_im, test_im文件夹装的是训练和测试图像，train_gt和test_gt装的是训练和测试标签。
因为CTPN的核心思想也是基于Faster RCNN中的region proposal机制的，所以原始数据标签需要转化为
anchor标签。训练数据的标签的生成的代码是最难写，因为从一个完整的文本框标签转化为一个个小尺度文本框标签确实有点难度，而且这个anchor标签的生成方式也与Faster RCNN生成方式略有不同。下面讲一讲我的实现思路：
第一步我们需要将原先每张图的bbox标签转化为每个anchor标签。为了实现该功能，我们先将一张图划分为宽度为16的各个anchor。
def generate_gt_anchor(img, box, anchor_width=16): """ calsulate ground truth fine-scale box :param img: input image :param box: ground truth box (4 point) :param anchor_width: :return: tuple (position, h, cy) """ if not isinstance(box[0], float): box = [float(box[i]) for i in range(len(box))] result = [] # 求解一个bbox下，能分解为多少个16宽度的小anchor，并求出最左和最右的小achor的id left_anchor_num = int(math.floor(max(min(box[0], box[6]), 0) / anchor_width)) # the left side anchor of the text box, downwards right_anchor_num = int(math.ceil(min(max(box[2], box[4]), img.shape[1]) / anchor_width)) # the right side anchor of the text box, upwards # handle extreme case, the right side anchor may exceed the image width if right_anchor_num * 16 + 15 > img.shape[1]: right_anchor_num -= 1 # combine the left-side and the right-side x_coordinate of a text anchor into one pair position_pair = [(i * anchor_width, (i + 1) * anchor_width - 1) for i in range(left_anchor_num, right_anchor_num)] # 计算每个gt anchor的真实位置，其实就是求解gt anchor的上边界和下边界 y_top, y_bottom = cal_y_top_and_bottom(img, position_pair, box) # 最后将每个anchor的位置(水平ID)、anchor中心y坐标、anchor高度存储并返回 for i in range(len(position_pair)): position = int(position_pair[i][0] / anchor_width) # the index of anchor box h = y_bottom[i] - y_top[i] + 1 # the height of anchor box cy = (float(y_bottom[i]) + float(y_top[i])) / 2.0 # the center point of anchor box result.append((position, cy, h)) return result计算anchor上下边界的方法：
# cal the gt anchor box's bottom and top coordinatedef cal_y_top_and_bottom(raw_img, position_pair, box): """ :param raw_img: :param position_pair: for example:[(0, 15), (16, 31), ...] :param box: gt box (4 point) :return: top and bottom coordinates for y-axis """ img = copy.deepcopy(raw_img) y_top = [] y_bottom = [] height = img.shape[0] # 设置图像mask，channel 0为全黑图 for i in range(img.shape[0]): for j in range(img.shape[1]): img[i, j, 0] = 0 top_flag = False bottom_flag = False # 根据bbox四点画出文本框，channel 0下文本框为白色 img = other.draw_box_4pt(img, box, color=(255, 0, 0)) for k in range(len(position_pair)): # 从左到右遍历anchor gt，对每个anchor从上往下扫描像素，遇到白色像素点（255）就停下来，此时像素点坐标y就是该anchor gt的上边界 # calc top y coordinate for y in range(0, height-1): # loop each anchor, from left to right for x in range(position_pair[k][0], position_pair[k][1] + 1): if img[y, x, 0] == 255: y_top.append(y) top_flag = True break if top_flag is True: break # 从左到右遍历anchor gt，对每个anchor从下往上扫描像素，遇到白色像素点（255）就停下来，此时像素点坐标y就是该anchor gt的下边界 # calc bottom y coordinate, pixel from down to top loop for y in range(height - 1, -1, -1): # loop each anchor, from left to right for x in range(position_pair[k][0], position_pair[k][1] + 1): if img[y, x, 0] == 255: y_bottom.append(y) bottom_flag = True break if bottom_flag is True: break top_flag = False bottom_flag = False return y_top, y_bottom经过上面的标签处理，我们已经将原先的标准的文本框标签转化为一个一个小尺度anchor标签，以下是标签转化后的效果：
以上标签可视化后看来anchor标签做得不错，但是这里需要提出的是，我发现这种anchor生成方法是不太精准的，比如一个文本框边缘像素刚好落在一个新的anchor上，那么我们就要为这个像素分配一个16像素的anchor，显然导致了文本框标签的不准确，引入了15像素的误差，这个是需要思考的。这个问题我们先不做处理，继续下面的工作。
当然转化期间我们也遇到很多奇怪的问题，比如下图这种标签都已经超出图像范围的，我们必须做相应的特殊处理，比如限定标签横坐标的最大尺寸为图像宽度。
left_anchor_num = int(math.floor(max(min(box[0], box[6]), 0) / anchor_width)) # the left side anchor of the text box, downwardsright_anchor_num = int(math.ceil(min(max(box[2], box[4]), img.shape[1]) / anchor_width)) # the right side anchor of the text box, upwards因为CTPN用到了CNN+双向LSTM的网络结构，所以我们分步实现CTPN架构。
CNN部分CTPN采取了VGG16进行底层特征提取。

CTPN论文提到，文本线构造法如下：文本行构建很简单，通过将那些text/no-text score > 0.7的连续的text proposals相连接即可。文本行的构建如下。
一看理论很简单，但是一到自己实现就困难重重了。真是应了那句“纸上得来终觉浅，绝知此事要躬行”啊！get_successions传入的参数是v代表每个预测anchor的h和y信息，anchors代表每个anchors的四个顶点坐标信息。
def get_successions(v, anchors=[]): texts = [] for i, anchor in enumerate(anchors): neighbours = [] # 记录每组的anchors neighbours.append(i) center_x1 = (anchor[2] + anchor[0]) / 2 h1 = get_anchor_h(anchor, v) # 获取该anchor的高度 # find i's neighbour # 遍历余下的anchors，找出邻居 for j in range(i + 1, len(anchors)): center_x2 = (anchors[j][2] + anchors[j][0]) / 2 # 中心点X坐标 h2 = get_anchor_h(anchors[j], v) # 如果这两个Anchor间的距离小于50，而且他们的它们的垂直重叠(vertical overlap)大于一定阈值，那就是邻居 if abs(center_x1 - center_x2) < NEIGHBOURS_MIN_DIST and meet_v_iou(max(anchor[1], anchors[j][1]), min(anchor[3], anchors[j][3]), h1, h2): # less than 50 pixel between each anchor neighbours.append(j) if len(neighbours) != 0: texts.append(neighbours) # 通过上面的步骤，我们已经把每一个anchor的邻居都找到并加入了对应的集合中了，现在我们 # 通过一个循环来不断将每个小组合并 need_merge = True while need_merge: need_merge = False # ok, we combine again. for i, line in enumerate(texts): if len(line) == 0: continue for index in line: for j in range(i+1, len(texts)): if index in texts[j]: texts[i] += texts[j] texts[i] = list(set(texts[i])) texts[j] = [] need_merge = True result = [] #print(texts) for text in texts: if len(text) < 2: continue local = [] for j in text: local.append(anchors[j]) result.append(local) return result当我们得到一个文本框的anchors组合后，接下来要做的就是将组内的anchors串联成一个文本框。get_text_lines函数做的就是这个功能。
