How does the bounding box regressor work in Fast R-CNN?

A very clear and in-depth explanation is provided by the slow R-CNN paper by Author(Girshick et. al) on page 12: C. Bounding-box regression and I simply paste here for quick reading: Moreover, the ...

How does the bounding box regressor work in Fast R-CNN?

The paper cited does not mention linear regression at all. What it does is using a neural network to predict continuous variables, and refers to that as regression. The regression that is defined (...

How does YOLO algorithm detect objects if the grid size is way smaller than the object in the test image?

Each grid predictor in YOLO should only have a high score that an object is within it, if it detects the centre of the bounding rectangle is inside itself. So a grid point that contains only the wing ...

How to label overlapping objects for deep learning model training

There is no common practice in labeling the bounding boxes. It is always problem dependent. For example, if you want to count the chickens then you should also label the whole chicken as one instance ...

YOLO pretraining

1) The goal of using Average pooling layer (at least here), is to have a vector after it. That way you have a fully connected layer vector. In Yolo, the layer previous the fully connected one seems ...

YOLO annotation guildelines: overlapping and partially visible objects

There is only 1 restriction, your truth bboxes with the same class_id shouldn't be overlapped more than IoU > 45%, because Yolo uses nms_threshold = 0.45. In general, you should mark your objects in ...
