A TensorFlow implementation of the Faster R-CNN object detection framework, supporting VGG16, ResNet, and MobileNet backbones trained and evaluated on PASCAL VOC and COCO datasets. The repository is officially deprecated in favor of more up-to-date multi-GPU implementations.

Use cases

• train a Faster R-CNN object detector on PASCAL VOC
• evaluate object detection models on COCO minival
• run object detection inference with pretrained VGG16 or ResNet101 models
• reproduce Faster R-CNN baseline results in TensorFlow
• fine-tune an object detection model with MobileNet backbone
• study region proposal network implementations for object detection

When to choose

• you need a reference TensorFlow implementation of Faster R-CNN for research or study
• you want to reproduce published VOC or COCO detection baselines
• you need pretrained Faster R-CNN models with VGG16, ResNet, or MobileNet backbones

When to avoid

• you need an actively maintained or multi-GPU production detector - the repo is deprecated
• you want modern architectures like FPN or Mask R-CNN training support
• you are starting a new project and should use up-to-date detection frameworks instead
