What is detr-resnet-50-dc5?

DETR (Detection Transformer) is a revolutionary end-to-end object detection model that combines the power of transformers with computer vision. This specific implementation uses a ResNet-50 backbone with a dilated C5 stage, offering a robust architecture for object detection tasks.

Implementation Details

The model utilizes a transformer encoder-decoder architecture with a convolutional backbone. It processes images through 100 object queries, each designed to detect specific objects in the input image. The model employs two specialized heads: a linear layer for class prediction and an MLP for bounding box detection.

  • Trained on COCO 2017 dataset (118k annotated images)
  • Uses bipartite matching loss with Hungarian algorithm
  • Implements both cross-entropy and IoU loss functions
  • Processes images with standardized preprocessing (800-1333 pixel range)

Core Capabilities

  • End-to-end object detection without manual anchor box design
  • Efficient parallel decoding of objects
  • Direct set prediction capability
  • Support for COCO dataset classes
