The ObjectDetector is a Task for detecting objects in images. For more details, see Object Detection.

Parameters

• num_classes (Optional[int]) – The number of object classes.

• backbone (Optional[str]) – String indicating the backbone CNN architecture to use.

• head (Optional[str]) – String indicating the head module to use ontop of the backbone.

• pretrained (bool) – Whether the model should be loaded with it’s pretrained weights.

• optimizer (TypeVar(OPTIMIZER_TYPE, str, Callable, Tuple[str, Dict[str, Any]], None)) – Optimizer to use for training.

• lr_scheduler (Optional[TypeVar(LR_SCHEDULER_TYPE, str, Callable, Tuple[str, Dict[str, Any]], Tuple[str, Dict[str, Any], Dict[str, Any]], None)]) – The LR scheduler to use during training.

• learning_rate (Optional[float]) – The learning rate to use for training.

• predict_kwargs (Optional[Dict]) – dictionary containing parameters that will be used during the prediction phase.

• kwargs (Any) – additional kwargs nessesary for initializing the backbone task

classmethod load_from_checkpoint(cls, checkpoint_path, map_location=None, hparams_file=None, strict=True, **kwargs)

Primary way of loading a model from a checkpoint. When Lightning saves a checkpoint it stores the arguments passed to __init__ in the checkpoint under "hyper_parameters".

Any arguments specified through **kwargs will override args stored in "hyper_parameters".

Parameters

• checkpoint_path (Union[str, Path, IO]) – Path to checkpoint. This can also be a URL, or file-like object

• map_location (Union[device, str, int, Callable[[Union[device, str, int]], Union[device, str, int]], Dict[Union[device, str, int], Union[device, str, int]], None]) – If your checkpoint saved a GPU model and you now load on CPUs or a different number of GPUs, use this to map to the new setup. The behaviour is the same as in torch.load().

• hparams_file (Union[str, Path, None]) –

  Optional path to a .yaml or .csv file with hierarchical structure as in this example:

  drop_prob: 0.2
  dataloader:
      batch_size: 32
  

  You most likely won’t need this since Lightning will always save the hyperparameters to the checkpoint. However, if your checkpoint weights don’t have the hyperparameters saved, use this method to pass in a .yaml file with the hparams you’d like to use. These will be converted into a dict and passed into your LightningModule for use.

  If your model’s hparams argument is Namespace and .yaml file has hierarchical structure, you need to refactor your model to treat hparams as dict.

• strict (bool) – Whether to strictly enforce that the keys in checkpoint_path match the keys returned by this module’s state dict.

• **kwargs – Any extra keyword args needed to init the model. Can also be used to override saved hyperparameter values.

Return type

Self

Returns

LightningModule instance with loaded weights and hyperparameters (if available).

Note

load_from_checkpoint is a class method. You should use your LightningModule class to call it instead of the LightningModule instance.

Example:

# load weights without mapping ...
model = MyLightningModule.load_from_checkpoint('path/to/checkpoint.ckpt')

# or load weights mapping all weights from GPU 1 to GPU 0 ...
map_location = {'cuda:1':'cuda:0'}
model = MyLightningModule.load_from_checkpoint(
    'path/to/checkpoint.ckpt',
    map_location=map_location
)

# or load weights and hyperparameters from separate files.
model = MyLightningModule.load_from_checkpoint(
    'path/to/checkpoint.ckpt',
    hparams_file='/path/to/hparams_file.yaml'
)

# override some of the params with new values
model = MyLightningModule.load_from_checkpoint(
    PATH,
    num_layers=128,
    pretrained_ckpt_path=NEW_PATH,
)

# predict
pretrained_model.eval()
pretrained_model.freeze()
y_hat = pretrained_model(x)

property predict_kwargs: Dict[str, Any]

The kwargs used for the prediction step.

Return type

Dict[str, Any]
