Deploy with Roboflow

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.

Overview

What is Faster R-CNN?

Faster R-CNN is a state-of-the-art object detection framework. It has been around for a while and has a lot of nice integrations. Despite its name, Faster R-CNN is known as being a slower model than some other choices (like YOLOv3 or MobileNet) for inference but in return is more accurate. It is one of the many model architectures that the TensorFlow Object Detection API provides by default, including with pre-trained weights, and the implementation in this notebook links in with Tensorboard.

Faster R-CNN Architecture

The Faster R-CNN utilizes is a two-stage deep learning object detector: first, it identifies regions of interest and then passes these regions to a convolutional neural network. The outputted feature maps are passed to a support vector machine (SVM) for classification. Regression between predicted bounding boxes and ground truth bounding boxes is computed. Below is the general architecture for the Faster R-CNN:

Performance

Deploy a Faster R-CNN API

You can use Roboflow Inference to deploy a

Faster R-CNN

API on your hardware. You can deploy the model on CPU (i.e. Raspberry Pi, AI PCs) and GPU devices (i.e. NVIDIA Jetson, NVIDIA T4).

Below are instructions on how to deploy your own model API.

Label Data Automatically with Faster R-CNN

You can automatically label a dataset using Faster R-CNN with help from Autodistill, an open source package for training computer vision models. You can label a folder of images automatically with only a few lines of code. Below, see our tutorials that demonstrate how to use Faster R-CNN to train a computer vision model.
