ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco

Use Case and High-Level Description

The ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco model is a Single-Shot multibox Detection (SSD) network intended to perform object detection. The difference between this model and the mobilenet-ssd is that there the mobilenet-ssd can only detect face, the ssd_mobilenet_v1_coco model can detect objects.

Input

Original model

Image, name - image_tensor, shape - [1x300x300x3], format [BxHxWxC], where:

  • B - batch size
  • H - image height
  • W - image width
  • C - number of channels

Expected color order - RGB.

Converted model

Image, name - image_tensor, shape - [1x3x300x300], format [BxCxHxW], where:

  • B - batch size
  • C - number of channels
  • H - image height
  • W - image width

Expected color order: BGR.

Output

Original model

  1. Classifier, name - detection_classes, contains predicted bounding boxes classes in range [1, 91]. The model was trained on Microsoft* COCO dataset version with 91 categories of object, 0 class is for background. Mapping to class names provided in <omz_dir>/data/dataset_classes/coco_91cl_bkgr.txt file.
  2. Probability, name - detection_scores, contains probability of detected bounding boxes.
  3. Detection box, name - detection_boxes, contains detection boxes coordinates in format [y_min, x_min, y_max, x_max], where (x_min, y_min) are coordinates top left corner, (x_max, y_max) are coordinates right bottom corner. Coordinates are rescaled to input image size.
  4. Detections number, name - num_detections, contains the number of predicted detection boxes.

Converted model

The array of summary detection information, name - DetectionOutput, shape - [1, 1, N, 7], where N is the number of detected bounding boxes. For each detection, the description has the format: [image_id, label, conf, x_min, y_min, x_max, y_max], where:

  • image_id - ID of the image in the batch
  • label - predicted class ID in range [1, 91], mapping to class names provided in <omz_dir>/data/dataset_classes/coco_91cl_bkgr.txt file.
  • conf - confidence for the predicted class
  • (x_min, y_min) - coordinates of the top left bounding box corner (coordinates stored in normalized format, in range [0, 1])
  • (x_max, y_max) - coordinates of the bottom right bounding box corner (coordinates stored in normalized format, in range [0, 1])
