result

we trained this repo on 4 GPUs with batch size 32(8 image per node).the total epoch is 24(about 180k iter),Adam with cosine lr decay is used for optimizing. finally, this repo achieves 41.2 mAp at 736px(max thresh) resolution with resnet50 backbone.(about 21.94)

training

for now we only support coco detection data.

COCO

modify main.py (modify config file path)

from solver.ddp_mix_solver import DDPMixSolver
if __name__ == '__main__':
    processor = DDPMixSolver(cfg_path="your own config path") 
    processor.run()

custom some parameters in config.yaml
