# DeepSense6G_TII
The repository contains code, report and presentation for the solution of Team TII for ITU AI/ML in 5G Grand Challenge 2022: [`ML5G-PS-011: Multi Modal Beam Prediction: Towards Generalization`](https://deepsense6g.net/multi-modal-beam-prediction-challenge/)

## Problem Statement
The objective of the challenge is to design a machine learning solution that takes a sequence of 5 samples camera, LiDAR, radar sensor data and 2 samples user GPS data, to predict the optimal beam index.

## Solution  
We develop a transformer-based multi-modal deep learning framework for sensing assisted beam prediction. We first preprocess sensor data by enhancing and segmenting images, filtering point-clouds, transforming radar signal and user's GPS location. We then employ ResNet CNN to extract the features from image, point-cloud and radar raw data. The GPT transformer is used after each convolutional block to fuse feature maps of different modalities. We utilize data augmentation, soft targets, focal loss, cosine decay schedular, exponential moving average to train the model. Experimental results shows our model produces effective beam prediction generalized to different scenarios. Our framework can be easily extended to different applications of sensing and communicaitons.

## Installation
Clone this repository:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/DeepSenseChallengeTeam/DeepSense6G_TII.git
cd DeepSense6G_TII
```
Create the environment:
```sh
conda env create -f environment.yml 
conda activate tfuse 
```

## Data Preprocessing
We enhance and augment the multi-modal sensor data provided by the challenge. The final data necessary to reproduce our experiment can be downloaded directly from this link: [`MultiModalSensorPreprocessedData`](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zvOOJpGodEnjqvAiAeXkzOdjWmz1semF?usp=sharing). After downloading, unzip and put these three datasets under [Dataset](./Dataset/).

The dataset and pretrained model are structured as follows:
```
- DeepSense6G_TII
    - Dataset
        - Adaptation_dataset_multi_modal
        - Multi_Modal
        - Multi_Modal_Test
        - scenario31.jpg
        ...
    - log
        - test
            -best_model.pth
            -args.txt
        ...
```

We develop following tools to preprocess the original dataset for training our model:

* [`Lidar_data_preprocessing.py`](./Data_Preprocessing/Lidar_data_preprocessing.py): filter the backgrounds and retain the mobile objects.
* [`Radar_data_preprocessing.py`](./Data_Preprocessing/Radar_data_preprocessing.py): generate Range-Velocity and Range-Angle map features.
* [`Image_data_augmentation.py`](./Data_Augmentation/Image_data_augmentation.py): chagne image brightness, contrast, gamma, hue, saturation, sharpness, bluring. 
* [`Lidar_data_augmentation.py`](./Data_Augmentation/Lidar_data_augmentation.py): change point-cloud by down sampling, adding noise. 
* [`radar_data_augmentation.py`](./Data_Augmentation/radar_data_augmentation.py): change radar signals by adding noise in the spectral domain.

## Training and Evaluation
The framework can be experimented with different approaches and hyperparameters for training and data preprocessing. The configurations and descriptions can be viewed as follows:
```
python3 train2_seq.py --help
```
The core code of our solution can be found in the following scripts:

* [`train2_seq.py`](./train2_seq.py): main engine for multi-modal deep learning.
* [`model2_seq.py`](./model2_seq.py): transformer based sensing aid beam prediction model.
* [`data2_seq.py`](./data2_seq.py): data preparation for training and evaluation.
* [`config_seq.py`](./config_seq.py): configuration of hyperparameters and paths.

A minimal example of running the training script to reproduce our best submitted model: 
```sh
python3 train2_seq.py --id test --logdir log --device cuda --epochs 150 --lr 1e-4 --batch_size 12 --add_velocity 1 --add_mask 0 --enhanced 1 --filtered 0 --loss focal --scheduler 1 --load_previous_best 0 --temp_coef 1 --train_adapt_together 1 --finetune 0 --Test 0 --augmentation 1 --angle_norm 1 --custom_FoV_lidar 1 --add_seg 0 --ema 1 --flip 0
```
The best pretrained model can be downloaded from this link: [`best_model.pth`](https://tiiuae-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/yu_tian_tii_ae/ESWmKoHeKsxJorYTr6MxgjQBlCXrRQoSrgLDxs7ljxEr_g?e=bPrCgS)

The following script reproduce our best result, by saving the pretrained model in './log/test' folder:
```sh
python3 train2_seq.py --id test --logdir log --Test 1 --add_velocity 1 --add_mask 0 --enhanced 1 --filtered 0 --angle_norm 1 --custom_FoV_lidar 1 --add_seg 0
```
Our best solution is save in [`beam_pred.csv`](./beam_pred.csv).

The best DBA score of each scenario on the test dataset is as follows:
|Scenario 31|Scenario 32|Scenario 33|Scenario 34|Overall|
|:-:|:-:|:-:|:-:|:-:|
|0.5331|0.7173|0.7910|0.8209|0.6671|

## Future work
We are experimenting further approaches to improve the solutions such as semi-supervised learning, contrastive learning. We also plan to extend the framework for wider applications of integrated sensing and communications.
