Introduction

PaddleDetection is an end-to-end object detection development kit based on PaddlePaddle, which aims to help developers in the whole development of constructing, training, optimizing and deploying detection models in a faster and better way.

PaddleDetection implements varied mainstream object detection algorithms in modular design, and provides wealthy data augmentation methods, network components(such as backbones), loss functions, etc., and integrates abilities of model compression and cross-platform high-performance deployment.

After a long time of industry practice polishing, PaddleDetection has had smooth and excellent user experience, it has been widely used by developers in more than ten industries such as industrial quality inspection, remote sensing image object detection, automatic inspection, new retail, Internet, and scientific research.

Product news

• 2021.04.14: Release release/2.0 version. Dygraph mode in PaddleDetection is fully supported. Cover all the algorithm of static graph and update the performance of mainstream detection models. Release PP-YOLO v2 and PP-YOLO tiny, enhanced anchor free model PAFNet and S2ANet which is aimed at rotation object detection.Please refer to PaddleDetection for details.
• 2020.02.07: Release release/2.0-rc version, Please refer to PaddleDetection for details.

Features

• Rich Models PaddleDetection provides rich of models, including 100+ pre-trained models such as object detection, instance segmentation, face detection etc. It covers a variety of global competition champion schemes.

• Highly Flexible: Components are designed to be modular. Model architectures, as well as data preprocess pipelines and optimization strategies, can be easily customized with simple configuration changes.

• Production Ready: From data augmentation, constructing models, training, compression, depolyment, get through end to end, and complete support for multi-architecture, multi-device deployment for cloud and edge device.

• High Performance: Based on the high performance core of PaddlePaddle, advantages of training speed and memory occupation are obvious. FP16 training and multi-machine training are supported as well.

Overview of Model Performance

The relationship between COCO mAP and FPS on Tesla V100 of representative models of each architectures and backbones.

NOTE:

• CBResNet stands for Cascade-Faster-RCNN-CBResNet200vd-FPN, which has highest mAP on COCO as 53.3%

• Cascade-Faster-RCNN stands for Cascade-Faster-RCNN-ResNet50vd-DCN, which has been optimized to 20 FPS inference speed when COCO mAP as 47.8% in PaddleDetection models

• PP-YOLO achieves mAP of 45.9% on COCO and 72.9FPS on Tesla V100. Both precision and speed surpass YOLOv4

• PP-YOLO v2 is optimized version of PP-YOLO which has mAP of 49.5% and 68.9FPS on Tesla V100

• All these models can be get in Model Zoo
