ctdet_coco_dlav0_512#

Use Case and High-Level Description#

CenterNet object detection model ctdet_coco_dlav0_512 originally trained with PyTorch*. CenterNet models an object as a single point - the center point of its bounding box and uses keypoint estimation to find center points and regresses to object size. For details see paper, repository.

Converted Model#

Image, name: input.1, shape: 1, 3, 512, 512, format: B, C, H, W, where:

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

Expected color order: BGR.

Output#

Object center points heatmap, name: center_heatmap. Contains predicted objects center point, for each of the 80 categories, according to Common Objects in Context (COCO) dataset version with 80 categories of objects, without background label, mapping to class names provided in <omz_dir>/data/dataset_classes/coco_80cl.txt file.
Object size output, name: width_height. Contains predicted width and height for each object.
Regression output, name: regression. Contains offsets for each prediction.
