YOLOS vs. Faster R-CNN

Both YOLOS and Faster R-CNN are commonly used in computer vision projects. Below, we compare and contrast YOLOS and Faster R-CNN.

YOLOS

YOLOS looks at patches of an image to to form "patch tokens", which are used in place of the traditional wordpiece tokens in NLP.
icon-model

Faster R-CNN

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.
