Has anyone implement the FRCNN for TensorFlow version?
I found some related repos as following:
Implement roi pool layer
Implement fast RCNN based on py-faster-rcnn repo
but for 1: assume the roi pooling layer works (I haven't tried), and there are something need to be implemented as following:
ROI data layer e.g. roidb.
Linear Regression e.g. SmoothL1Loss
ROI pool layer post-processing for end-to-end training which should convert the ROI pooling layer's results to feed into CNN for classifier.
For 2: em...., it seems based on py-faster-rcnn which based on Caffe to prepared pre-processing (e.g. roidb) and feed data into Tensorflow to train the model, it seems weird, so I may not tried it.
So what I want to know is that, will Tensorflow support Faster RCNN in the future?. If not, do I have any mis-understand which mentioned above? or has any repo or someone support that?
Tensorflow has just released an official Object Detection API here, that can be used for instance with their various slim models.
This API contains implementation of various Pipelines for Object Detection, including popular Faster RCNN, with their pre-trained models as well.

I'm looking into training an object detection network using Tensorflow, and I had a look at the TF2 Model Zoo. I noticed that there are noticeably less models there than in the directory /models/research/models/, including the MobileDet with SSDLite developed for the jetson xavier.
To clarify, the readme says that there is a MobileDet GPU with SSDLite, and that the model and checkpoints trained on COCO are provided, yet I couldn't find them anywhere in the repo.
How is one supposed to use those models?
I already have a custom-trained MobileDetv3 for image classification, and I was hoping to see a way to turn the network into an object detection network, in accordance with the MobileDetv3 paper. If this is not straightforward, training one network from scratch could be ok too, I just need to know where to even start from.
If you plan to use the object detection API, you can't use your existing model. You have to choose from a list of models here for v2 and here for v1
The documentation is very well maintained and the steps to train or validate or run inference (test) on custom data is very well explained here by the TensorFlow team. The link is meant for TensorFlow version v2. However, if you wish to use v1, the process is fairly similar and there are numerous blogs/videos explaining how to go about it
I want to do quantization-aware training with a basic convolutional neural network that I define directly in tensorflow (I don't want to use other API's such as Keras). The only ressource that I am aware of is the readme here:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorflow/contrib/quantize
However its not clear exactly where the different quantization commands should go in the overall process of training and then freezing the graph for actual inference.
Therefore I am wondering if there is any code example out there that shows how to define, train, and freeze a simple convolutional neural network with quantization aware training in tensorflow?
It seems that others have had the same question as well, see for instance here.
Thanks!
Tensorflow object detection API provides a number of pretrained object detection models to choose from. However, I would like to introduce modifications to the architecture of those models.
Particularly, I would like to make Faster RCNN into a more shallow network and use it to train my model. I want to gain in performance despite loss in accuracy. MobileNet is too inaccurate for my application.
Is it possible to achieve this without having to implement everything from scratch ?
Thank you.
I am trying to reimplement on tensorflow the Fast-Rcnn network that is already implemented in caffe, in order to use in Face/License Plates detection.
For that purpose, I converted the caffe weights into npy thanks using this script.
Here is how I present my model. To which I load the converted weights.
PS: I used the roi_pooling implementation by zplizzi.
Does anyone have any idea why I wouldn't get the same result testing same images with same Selective Search bboxes ? I was thinking it might be the flattening process that could differs from caffe to TF, maybe ?
*Edit:
Here is an example of results I get in caffe. While I get no car detection in TF.
Are there any resnet implementations in tensorflow? I came across a few (e.g. https://github.com/ry/tensorflow-resnet, https://github.com/xuyuwei/resnet-tf) but these implementations have some bugs (e.g. see the Issues section on the respective github page). I am looking to train imagenet using resnet and looking for tensorflow implementations.
There are some (50/101/152) in tensorflow:models/slim.
The example notebook shows how to get a pre-trained inception running, res-net is probably no different.
I implemented a cifar10 version of ResNet with tensorflow. The validation errors of ResNet-32, ResNet-56 and ResNet-110 are 6.7%, 6.5% and 6.2% respectively. (You can modify the number of layers easily as hyper-parameters.)
I tried to be friendly with new ResNet fan and wrote everything straightforward. You can run the cifar10_train.py file directly without any downloads.

I implemented Resnet by use of ronnie.ai and keras. Both of tool are great.
While ronnie is more easy from scratch.
