Both MobileNet SSD v2 and Faster R-CNN are commonly used in computer vision projects. Below, we compare and contrast MobileNet SSD v2 and Faster R-CNN.
Models
MobileNet SSD v2
This architecture provides good realtime results on limited compute. It's designed to run in realtime (30 frames per second) even on mobile devices.
One of the most accurate object detection algorithms but requires a lot of power at inference time. A good choice if you can do processing asynchronously on a server.
