tiny-yolo not giving results after fine tuning

[sharoseali]

@AlexeyAB writing stopbackward=1 in cfg file and then fine tuning isn't giving results as yolov2 23 layer architecture. mAP is 0.0% before and after fine tuning yolov2-tiny-voc.cfg and corresponding weights this result in a pic is after first 100 iterations......... After 2400 iteration the avg loss donot decrease below 0.2 and mAP is 0.00% ..................extremely un-understandable Alexey. after run this command darknet partial cfg/yolov2-tiny-voc.cfg yolov2-tiny-voc.weights yolov2-tiny.conv.13 13 the weights are saved as yolov2-tiny.conv.13 and when i tested this weight file for detection it gives me this result if this command only save the weight file than why results are so bad??

after run this command darknet partial cfg/yolov2-tiny-voc.cfg yolov2-tiny-voc.weights yolov2-tiny.conv.13 13 the weights are saved as yolov2-tiny.conv.13 and when i tested this weight file for detection it gives me this result

This command creates weights file yolov2-tiny.conv.13 that is suitable only for Training, not for Detection: darknet partial cfg/yolov2-tiny-voc.cfg yolov2-tiny-voc.weights yolov2-tiny.conv.13 13

You must follow exactly this sequence:

1. Set stopbackward=1
2. do darknet partial to get yolov2-tiny.conv.13 file
3. Train your model yolo-obj.weights
4. use yolo-obj.weights for Detection

@AlexeyAB Thanks for replying... i set stopbackward=1 in my new cfg file to train with 4 classes. Now i will try again by setting stopbackward=1 in tiny-yolo-voc.cfg before partial command. Let see what happens??

@Alexey not getting the results even then...... i don't understand what's wrong with tiny- yolo-voc.cfg.. Avg loss decreases in several minutes and struck around 2.0.... mAP is 0.0%...
