class sleap.nn.config.model.CenteredInstanceConfmapsHeadConfig(anchor_part: Optional[str] = None, part_names: Optional[List[str]] = None, sigma: float = 5.0, output_stride: int = 1, loss_weight: float = 1.0, offset_refinement: bool = False)[source]#

Configurations for centered instance confidence map heads.

These heads are used in topdown multi-instance models that make the assumption that there is an instance reliably centered in the cropped input image. These heads are useful when centroids are easy to detect as they learn complex relationships between the geometry of body parts, even when animals are occluded.

This comes at the cost of a strong reliance on the accuracy of the instance-centered cropping, i.e., it is heavily limited by the accuracy of the centroid model.

Additionally, since one image crop is evaluated per instance, topdown models scale linearly with the number of animals in the frame, which can result in poor performance when many instances are present.

Use this head when centroids are easy to detect, preferably using a consistent body part as an anchor, and when there are few animals that cover a small region of the full frame.

anchor_part#

Text name of a body part (node) to use as the anchor point. If None, the midpoint of the bounding box of all visible instance points will be used as the anchor. The bounding box midpoint will also be used if the anchor part is specified but not visible in the instance. Setting a reliable anchor point can significantly improve topdown model accuracy as they benefit from a consistent geometry of the body parts relative to the center of the image.

Type

Optional[str]

Type

Optional[List[str]]

sigma#

Spread of the Gaussian distribution of the confidence maps as a scalar float. Smaller values are more precise but may be difficult to learn as they have a lower density within the image space. Larger values are easier to learn but are less precise with respect to the peak coordinate. This spread is in units of pixels of the model input image, i.e., the image resolution after any input scaling is applied.

Type

float

output_stride#

The stride of the output confidence maps relative to the input image. This is the reciprocal of the resolution, e.g., an output stride of 2 results in confidence maps that are 0.5x the size of the input. Increasing this value can considerably speed up model performance and decrease memory requirements, at the cost of decreased spatial resolution.

This can improve the localization accuracy of the model at the cost of additional memory and training and inference time. If False (the default), subpixel localization can be achieved post-hoc with deterministic refinement, which does not require additional resources or training, but may not achieve the same accuracy as learned refinement.

Configurations for centroid confidence map heads.

These heads are used in topdown models that rely on centroid detection to detect instances for cropping before predicting the remaining body parts.

Multiple centroids can be present (one per instance), so their coordinates can be recovered in inference via local peak finding.

anchor_part#

Text name of a body part (node) to use as the anchor point. If None, the midpoint of the bounding box of all visible instance points will be used as the anchor. The bounding box midpoint will also be used if the anchor part is specified but not visible in the instance. Setting a reliable anchor point can significantly improve topdown model accuracy as they benefit from a consistent geometry of the body parts relative to the center of the image.

These heads are used in bottom-up multi-instance models that classify detected points using a fixed set of learned classes (e.g., animal identities).

Configuration for multi-instance confidence map and class map models.

This configuration specifies a multi-head model that outputs both multi-instance confidence maps and class maps, which together enable multi-instance pose tracking in a bottom-up fashion, i.e., no instance cropping, centroids or PAFs are required. The limitation with this approach is that the classes, e.g., animal identities, must be labeled in the training data and cannot be generalized beyond those classes. This is still useful for applications in which the animals are uniquely identifiable and tracking their identities at inference time is critical, e.g., for closed loop experiments.

This configuration specifies a multi-head model that outputs both centered-instance confidence maps and class vectors, which together enable multi-instance pose tracking in a top-down fashion, i.e., instance-centered crops followed by pose estimation and classification.

The limitation with this approach is that the classes, e.g., animal identities, must be labeled in the training data and cannot be generalized beyond those classes. This is still useful for applications in which the animals are uniquely identifiable and tracking their identities at inference time is critical, e.g., for closed loop experiments.

Type

sleap.nn.config.model.MultiInstanceConfmapsHeadConfig

Type

sleap.nn.config.model.PartAffinityFieldsHeadConfig

class sleap.nn.config.model.MultiInstanceConfmapsHeadConfig(part_names: Optional[List[str]] = None, sigma: float = 5.0, output_stride: int = 1, loss_weight: float = 1.0, offset_refinement: bool = False)[source]#

Configurations for multi-instance confidence map heads.

These heads are used in bottom-up multi-instance models that do not make any assumption about the connectivity of the body parts. These heads will generate multiple local peaks for each body part type and must be detected using local peak finding.

Although this head alone is sufficient to detect multiple copies of each body part type, it provides no information as to which sets of points should be grouped together to the same instance. If this is required, a head that provides connectivity or grouping information is required, e.g., part affinity fields.

Use this head when multiple instances of each body part are present and do not need to be grouped or will be grouped using additional information.

This head type has the advantage that it only needs to evaluate each frame once to find all peaks, in contrast to topdown models that must be evaluated for each crop. This constant scaling with the number of instances can be especially beneficial when there are many animals present in the frame.

part_names#

Text name of the body parts (nodes) that the head will be configured to produce. The number of parts determines the number of channels in the output. If not specified, all body parts in the skeleton will be used.

Type

Larger values are easier to learn but are less precise with respect to the peak coordinate. This spread is in units of pixels of the model input image, i.e., the image resolution after any input scaling is applied.

Type

output_stride#

The stride of the output confidence maps relative to the input image. This is the reciprocal of the resolution, e.g., an output stride of 2 results in confidence maps that are 0.5x the size of the input.

class sleap.nn.config.model.PartAffinityFieldsHeadConfig(edges: Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]] = None, sigma: float = 15.0, output_stride: int = 1, loss_weight: float = 1.0)[source]#

Configurations for multi-instance part affinity field heads.

These heads are used in bottom-up multi-instance models that require information about body part connectivity in order to group multiple detections of each body part type into distinct instances.

Part affinity fields are an image-space representation of the directed graph that defines the skeleton. Pixels that are close to the line (directed edge) formed between pairs of nodes of the same instance will contain unit vectors pointing along the direction of the the connection. The similarity between this line and the average of the unit vectors at the pixels underneath the line can be used as a matching score to associate candidate pairs of body part detections.

Use this head when multiple instances of each body part are present and need to be grouped to coherent instances.

This head type has the advantage that it only needs to evaluate each frame once to find all peaks, in contrast to topdown models that must be evaluated for each crop. This constant scaling with the number of instances can be especially beneficial when there are many animals present in the frame.

edges#

Type

Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]]

sigma#

Spread of the Gaussian distribution that weigh the part affinity fields as a function of their distance from the edge they represent. Smaller values are more precise but may be difficult to learn as they have a lower density within the image space. Larger values are easier to learn but are less precise with respect to the edge distance, so can be less useful in disambiguating between edges that are nearby and parallel in direction. This spread is in units of pixels of the model input image, i.e., the image resolution after any input scaling is applied.

Type

float

output_stride#

The stride of the output part affinity fields relative to the input image. This is the reciprocal of the resolution, e.g., an output stride of 2 results in PAFs that are 0.5x the size of the input.
