nanodet-plus-m-1.5x-416#

Use Case and High-Level Description#

The nanodet-plus-m-1.5x-416 model is one from NanoDet models family, which is a FCOS-style one-stage anchor-free object detection model which using Generalized Focal Loss as classification and regression loss. A novel label assignment strategy with a simple assign guidance module (AGM) and a dynamic soft label assigner (DSLA) is used in NanoDet-Plus to solve the optimal label assignment problem in lightweight model training. Also a light feature pyramid called Ghost-PAN is introduced in Plus models to enhance multi-layer feature fusion. The model is a super fast and high accuracy lightweight model with ShuffleNetV2 1.5x backbone. This model was pre-trained on Common Objects in Context (COCO) dataset.
