# FVD (Fréchet Video Distance) Benchmark
Evaluate generated video quality using FVD with the I3D feature extractor.
## Quick Start
**Run the benchmark:**
```bash
bash benchmarks/scripts/run.sh
```
That's it! The script auto-installs dependencies and runs the benchmark.
**To customize:** Edit `benchmarks/fvd/run_fvd.py` to change:
- Video paths (`real_dir`, `gen_dir`)
- Number of videos, frames, sampling strategy
- Device, batch size, caching, etc.
## Advanced Usage (CLI)
For more control without editing Python files, use the CLI.
**First-time setup** (one-time per pod/environment):
```bash
bash benchmarks/scripts/setup_fvd.sh
```
Then run any configuration you want:
```bash
# Custom configuration
python -m benchmarks.fvd.cli \
--real-path data/real/ \
--gen-path outputs/gen/ \
--num-videos 1024 \
--num-frames 32 \
--clip-strategy random \
--batch-size 32 \
--seed 42 \
--extractor clip
```
**Standard protocols:**
```bash
# Use predefined protocols
python -m benchmarks.fvd.cli \
--real-path data/real/ \
--gen-path outputs/gen/ \
--protocol fvd2048_16f # or fvd2048_128f, quick_test, etc.
```
This would use i3d model by default as the feature extractor
**Feature caching** (speed up repeated evaluations):
```bash
python -m benchmarks.fvd.cli \
--real-path data/real/ \
--gen-path outputs/gen/ \
--protocol fvd2048_16f \
--cache-real-features fvd-cache/extractor_name # Directory path (will save/load fvd-cache/extractor_name/extractor-name_real_features.pkl)
```
Run `python -m benchmarks.fvd.cli --help` for all options.
## Available Protocols
- `fvd2048_16f` - Standard (2048 videos, 16 frames)
- `fvd2048_128f` - Long videos (128 frames)
- `fvd2048_128f_subsample8` - Subsampled long videos
- `quick_test` - Fast testing (10 videos)
## Configuration Options
Key options in `FVDConfig`:
```python
num_videos=2048, # Videos to evaluate
num_frames_per_clip=16, # Frames per clip
clip_strategy='beginning', # beginning|random|uniform|middle|sliding
frame_stride=1, # Frame subsampling
batch_size=32, # GPU batch size
device='cuda', # cuda|cpu
cache_real_features=None, # Cache path for speed
seed=42, # Reproducibility
extractor='i3d', # i3d|clip|videomae
```
## Programmatic Usage
```python
from benchmarks.fvd import compute_fvd_with_config, FVDConfig
config = FVDConfig.fvd2048_16f() # or custom config
results = compute_fvd_with_config('data/real/', 'outputs/gen/', config)
print(f"FVD: {results['fvd']:.2f}")
```
## Notes
- Requires minimum 10 frames per clip
- Supports both video files (.mp4, .avi, etc.) and frame directories
- `--cache-real-features` expects a **directory path** (e.g., `cache/real`), it will automatically create/load `real_features.pkl` inside that directory
