Requirements

1. tensorflow >= 1.13.1
2. Keras >= 2.2.4 (It will automatically be installed when you install efficientunet)

---

Special Notice

When I built this, tensorflow 1.13.1 and keras 2.2.4 are the latest. There was no TF2.0. All the functions and the so-called "best practices" I used in this project may be obsolete. Anyway, this library still works. But please keep in mind, this is built before the advent of TF2.0.

---

Installation

Install efficientunet:

pip install efficientunet

---

Basic Usage

from efficientunet import *

model = get_efficient_unet_b5((224, 224, 3), pretrained=True, block_type='transpose', concat_input=True)
model.summary()

Useful notes

1. This library assumes channels_last !

2. You cannot specify None for input_shape, since the input_shape is heavily used in the code for inferring the architecture. (The EfficientUnets are constructed dynamically)

3. Since you cannot use None for input_shape, the image size for training process and for inference process have to be the same.
   If you do need to use a different image size for inference, a feasible solution is:

   1. Save the weights of your well-trained model
   2. Create a new model with the desired input shape
   3. Load the weights of your well-trained model into this newly created model

4. Due to some rounding problem in the decoder path (not a bug, this is a feature 😏), the input shape should be divisible by 32.
   e.g. 224x224 is a suitable size for input images, but 225x225 is not.

Potential issues

• If you are unable to load the model from the saved HDF5 file, please refer to this issue.
• Especially this comment can be used as a workaround.
