SimNet: Enabling Robust Unknown Object Manipulation from Pure Synthetic Data via Stereo

Thomas Kollar, Michael Laskey, Kevin Stone, Brijen Thananjeyan, Mark Tjersland

This repo contains the code to train the SimNet architecture on procedurally generated simulation data from scratch (no transfer learning required). We also provide a small set of in-house manually labelled validation data containing 3d oriented bounding box labels.

Training the model

Requirements

You will need a Nvidia GPU with at least 12GB of RAM. All code was tested and developed on Ubuntu 20.04.

All commands are assumed to be run from the root of the simnet repo directory (represented by $SIMNET_REPO in commands below).

Setup

Python

Create a python 3.8 virtual environment and install requirements:

cd $SIMNET_REPO
conda create -y --prefix ./env python=3.8
./env/bin/python -m pip install --upgrade pip
./env/bin/python -m pip install -r frozen_requirements.txt

Docker

Make sure docker is installed and working without requiring sudo. If it is not installed, follow the official instructions for setting it up.

docker ps

Wandb

Launch wandb local server for logging training results (you do not need to do this if you already have a wandb account setup). This will launch a local webserver http://localhost:8080 using docker that you can use to visualize training progress and validation images. You will have to visit the http://localhost:8080/authorize page to get the local API access token (this can take a few minutes the first time). Once you get the key you can paste it into the terminal to continue.

cd $SIMNET_REPO
./env/bin/wandb local

Datasets

Download and untar train+val datasets simnet2021a.tar (18GB, md5 checksum:b8e1d3cb7200b44b1de223e87141f14b). This file contains all the training and validation you need to replicate our small objects results.

cd $SIMNET_REPO
wget https://tri-robotics-public.s3.amazonaws.com/github/simnet/datasets/simnet2021a.tar -P datasets
tar xf datasets/simnet2021a.tar -C datasets

Train and Validate

Overfit test:

./runner.sh net_train.py @config/net_config_overfit.txt

Full training run (requires 12GB GPU memory)

./runner.sh net_train.py @config/net_config.txt

Results

Check wandb (http://localhost:8080) to see training progress. On a Titan V, it takes about 48 hours for training to converge, but decent validation results can be seen around 24 hours.

Example validation image visualization:

depth noise model

I was looking through the code and was curious about the depth noise model. I found this: https://github.com/ToyotaResearchInstitute/simnet/blob/main/simnet/lib/camera.py but I can't seem to find camera_noise. Is it in the repository?

Pre-trained Models

Hi Kevin and the team,

Thanks for making the data and code available, really impressive work on the paper.

Is there any plans to make the pre-trained model available, especially the SimNet benchmarked in the paper.

Thanks,
