For network training and testing we used Caffe software ( http://arxiv.org/abs/1408.5093, http://caffe.berkeleyvision.org/ ), this is a must-have dependency.
For testing you'll also need liblinear ( http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/liblinear/ )
For Spatial Pyramid Pooling (when testing on Caltech-101) we used pooling code from Matthew Zeiler's Adaptive Deconvolutional Networks ( http://www.matthewzeiler.com/ ). This can also in principle be done using caffe or some matlab code.
We provide code for creating the training data, training and testing of the networks; as well as network configuration files and pre-trained networks.
For training a network, see code/training/demo_train_net.sh ( after correcting some paths in the demo and in train_nn_pretrain.sh ). The script allows pretraining with a diferent number of classes, which we do not actually need any more.
For testing, see code/testing/demo_test_net.m (matlab), you also need to correct some paths and download some datasets.
For dataset creation, see code/make_data/augment_patches_distr.m .
For converting data from matlab to leveldb or lmdb, see code/training/demo_convert_data.sh ( after correcting some paths in convert_data.sh ).
The configuration files include 'template' files which should be used with train_nn_pretrain.sh script, and test.prototxt files which may be used for testing with a pretrained network. Some of the files are in 'old' format which was previously used by caffe.
