| This repository contains the data for the paper [SceneDiff: A Benchmark and Method for Multiview Object Change Detection](http://yuqunw.github.io/SceneDiff). We investigate the problem of identifying objects that have been changed between a pair of captures of the same scene at different times, introducing the first object-level multiview change detection benchmark and a new training-free method. |
|
|
| ### Overview |
|
|
| The SceneDiff Benchmark contains **350 video sequence pairs** and **1,009 annotated objects** across two subsets: |
|
|
| - **Varied subset (SD-V)**: 200 sequence pairs collected in a wide variety of daily indoor and outdoor scenes |
| - **Kitchen subset (SD-K)**: 150 sequence pairs from the [HD-Epic dataset](https://hd-epic.github.io/) with changes that naturally occur during cooking activities |
|
|
| For each video pair, we record all changed objects' attributes, including object names and deformability, and annotate their full segmentation masks in all visible frames. Each object is categorized with a change status: *Added*, *Removed*, or *Moved*. Statistics for each subset: |

| ### Segments.pkl Structure: |
| ```python |
| segments = { |
| 'scenetype': str, # Type of scene change |
| 'video1_objects': { |
| 'object_id': { |
| 'frame_id': RLE_Mask # Run-length encoded mask |
| } |
| }, |
| 'video2_objects': { |
| 'object_id': { |
| 'frame_id': RLE_Mask # Run-length encoded mask |
| } |
| }, |
| 'objects': { |
| 'object_1': { |
| 'label': str, # Object label/name |
| 'in_video1': bool, # Present in video 1 |
| 'in_video2': bool, # Present in video 2 |
| 'deformability': str # 'rigid' or 'deformable' |
| } |
| } |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Loading Masks |
|
|
| To convert RLE masks back to tensors: |
|
|
| ```python |
| import torch |
| from pycocotools import mask as mask_utils |
| |
| # Load and decode RLE mask |
| tensor_mask = torch.tensor(mask_utils.decode(rle_mask)) |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Visualization |
| Run the command |
| ```bash |
| cd vis && pip install -r requirements.txt |
| python vis/visualizer.py |
| ``` |
| Open the link `http://localhost:5002` for visualized videos. |
