## What it is
FsDet is the official implementation of the ICML 2020 paper 'Frustratingly Simple Few-Shot Object Detection' (TFA), built on detectron2. It provides few-shot object detection benchmarks on PASCAL VOC, COCO, and LVIS with pre-trained models and a modular framework for future research.

## Use cases
- run few-shot object detection benchmarks on VOC, COCO, and LVIS
- reproduce TFA results from the ICML 2020 paper
- fine-tune an object detector on a few novel-class examples
- download pre-trained few-shot detection models
- build and evaluate new few-shot detection methods on a modular framework

## When to choose
- you need standardized few-shot object detection benchmarks and splits
- you want to reproduce or compare against the TFA approach
- you are doing research on few-shot learning for detection and want a detectron2-based base

## When to avoid
- you need general-purpose object detection rather than few-shot settings
- you need a production-ready detection system rather than research code
- you require frequent updates or support for the latest detectron2 versions

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: machine-learning, computer-vision, benchmarking
- domain: machine-learning, computer-vision, artificial-intelligence
- platform: python
- tags: few-shot-learning, object-detection, detectron2, research-code, tfa, gpu, linux
