Detectron2 Model Zoo and Baselines

Introduction

This file documents a large collection of baselines trained with detectron2 in Sep-Oct, 2019. The corresponding configurations for all models can be found under the configs/ directory. Unless otherwise noted, the following settings are used for all runs:

Common Settings

• All models were trained on Big Basin servers with 8 NVIDIA V100 GPUs, with data-parallel sync SGD and a total minibatch size of 16 images.

• All models were trained with CUDA 9.2, cuDNN 7.4.2 or 7.6.3 (the difference in speed is found to be negligible).

• The default settings are not directly comparable with Detectron. For example, our default training data augmentation uses scale jittering in addition to horizontal flipping.

  For configs that are closer to Detectron's settings, see Detectron1-Comparisons for accuracy comparison, and benchmarks for speed comparison.

• Inference time is measured with batch size 1. It contains the time taken to postprocess results for evaluation, as well as some input latency. Therefore it does not accurately reflect time-to-results. We'll provide better metrics for inference speed in the future.

• All COCO models were trained on train2017 and evaluated on val2017.

• For Faster/Mask R-CNN, we provide baselines based on 3 different backbone combinations:

  • FPN: Use a ResNet+FPN backbone with standard conv and FC heads for mask and box prediction, respectively. It obtains the best speed/accuracy tradeoff, but the other two are still useful for research.
  • C4: Use a ResNet conv4 backbone with conv5 head. The original baseline in the Faster R-CNN paper.
  • DC5 (Dilated-C5): Use a ResNet conv5 backbone with dilations in conv5, and standard conv and FC heads for mask and box prediction, respectively. This is used by the Deformable ConvNet paper.

• Most models are trained with the 3x schedule (~37 COCO epochs). Although 1x models are heavily under-trained, we provide some ResNet-50 models with the 1x (~12 COCO epochs) training schedule for comparison when doing quick research iteration.

• The model id column is provided for ease of reference. To check downloaded file integrity: any model on this page contains its md5 prefix in its file name.

ImageNet Pretrained Models

We provide backbone models pretrained on ImageNet-1k dataset. These models are different from those provided in Detectron: we do not fuse BatchNorm into an affine layer.

• R-50.pkl: converted copy of MSRA's original ResNet-50 model
• R-101.pkl: converted copy of MSRA's original ResNet-101 model
• X-101-32x8d.pkl: ResNeXt-101-32x8d model trained with Caffe2 at FB

Pretrained models in Detectron's format can still be used. For example:

• X-152-32x8d-IN5k.pkl: ResNeXt-152-32x8d model trained on ImageNet-5k with Caffe2 at FB (see ResNeXt paper for details on ImageNet-5k).
• R-50-GN.pkl: ResNet-50 with Group Normalization.
• R-101-GN.pkl: ResNet-101 with Group Normalization.
