Object Detection

Update Feb/2020: Facebook Research released pre-built Detectron2 versions, making local installation a lot easier. (Tested on Linux and Windows) Alongside PyTorch version 1.3, Facebook also released a ground-up rewrite of their object detection framework Detectron. The new framework is called Detectron2 and is now implemented in PyTorch instead of Caffe2. Detectron2 allows us to easily use and build object detection models. This article will help you get started with Detectron2 by learning how to use a pre-trained model for inferences and how to train your own model. ...

Update 27.07.2020: The Tensorflow Object Detection API now officially supports Tensorflow 2. You can find a Tensorflow 2 version of this article here.Object detection is the craft of detecting instances of a certain class, like animals, humans, and many more, in an image or video. In this article, we will go through training your own object detector for whichever objects you like. I chose to create an object detector that can distinguish between four different microcontrollers. ...
