Semantic segmentation with greyscale images

I'm trying to reproduce a research with greyscale images instead of colour images.

I have found that there are pre-trained networks, like VGG16, with ImageNet. But that dataset has colour images, and I can't use it because I'm going to use greyscale images.

Is there any pre-trained network with greyscale images?

Failing that, I can also train a network with a greyscale image dataset but I can't find any.

Your problem is that your dataset has one value per pixel, whereas ImageNet expects 3? Just convert your data to "color images" by passing the same value on all 3 (RGB) channels.


Use ImageNet, convert every image to grayscale and train VGG16.
