about regression targets about cascade-rcnn

You can have a look at the deploy.prototxt. All (dx, dy, dw, dh) have been decoded as (x1, y1, x2, y2) as final output.

Got it, thank you very much.

Hi, is me again. In your decode_bbox_layer.cpp, you screen out rois with high iou(>0.95), then you add gt_bboxes as rois in proposal_target_layer, what is this for? Can you explain this for me?

[zhaoweicai]

It is just to remove redundant gt boxes, since gt boxes will be added in proposal_target_layer each time.

[wenhe-jia]

OK, thanks a lot.

In addition, the channel of bbox_pred in rcnn is 8, I think is fg/bg delta for each roi, but not num_classes*4. Why did you do like this, does this bring benefits for bbox regression in your experiments?

[zhaoweicai]

It is class-agnostic bbox regression. In my experiments, I don't find it has difference with class-specific bbox regression.
