[9p15p]

In README

Update the config file by speficifying the target split and path (weights) for loading the checkpoint.

what does the split means ?
What role does 'split' play in the program?
e.g

assert args.split in [0, 1, 2, 3, 999]

Thank you .

The term Split refers to the data split we mentioned in our paper.

For example in PASCAL VOC, for data split 0, classes 1-5 are used for evaluation and the rest (16-20) are used for training.

Split 999 is deprecated, please use 0,1,2,3 instead. More details can be found in dataset.py.
