Need inputs on V2-99 and EVA02 backbone.

Hi @afterthat97 ,

First of all, thanks for your continuous work on this topic. I have rarely seen an author close these many issues.

For one of my works, I am using your V2-99 and EVA02 implementation for backbone. But I am seeing a bit strange results.

• My code with R18, R50 and ConvNext backbone works fine for validation (mAP: x, NDS: y) and test (mAP: x+2, NDS: y+1) set of nuscenes.
• My code with V2-99 and EVA02 backbone (your implementation) works fine for validation (mAP: X, NDS: Y) but for the test (mAP: X-10, NDS: Y-5) does not work as expected.

I tried everything and verified my code, but I could not figure out the issue specific to using these two backbones. During validation I see that the model performs well, but on the test set it fails, and can't even achieve val accuracy.

Could you please give me some direction/points to look into, specific to these two backbones.
