Object Detection: FPN and Anchor Boxes in Action
Unmasking the Power of Anchor Boxes and Feature Pyramid Networks in Object Detection Object detection, the crucial task of identifying and localizing objects within an image, has revolutionized countless applications from self-driving cars to medical imaging. While numerous algorithms exist, two key components consistently stand out: anchor boxes and Feature Pyramid Networks (FPNs). Today, we'll delve into these powerful tools and explore how they empower object detection models to achieve remarkable accuracy. Anchor Boxes: The Foundation of Predictions Imagine trying to find a specific car in a bustling city scene. You wouldn't start by examining every pixel individually. Instead, you might mentally draw boxes around potential car locations, then check if those boxes actually contain a car. Anchor boxes serve...
