What is Object-Detection-RetinaNet?
Object-Detection-RetinaNet is a sophisticated single-stage object detection model that combines accuracy with efficient performance. Developed and implemented through keras-io, this model addresses the challenging task of simultaneously localizing and classifying objects in images. It introduces the innovative Focal Loss function to handle the common problem of extreme foreground-background class imbalance in object detection.
Implementation Details
The model utilizes a Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) architecture for multi-scale object detection. Training is performed using SGD optimizer with a carefully crafted learning rate schedule using PiecewiseConstantDecay, with boundaries at [125, 250, 500, 240000, 360000] steps. The implementation maintains float32 precision and incorporates momentum of 0.9 for optimal training dynamics.
