As you talked about in the Yolov4 paper anchor-free methods seem a good technic. Why did you keep the anchors in yolov4? Could elaborate a little bit on this configuration.

Because it achieves higher accuracy and FPS. We did not conduct a full-scale comparison of all possible anchor-free and anchor-based solutions.

Why do you think this is a good technic?
