Confusion about detection leaderboard #29

Closed shine-lcy closed 4 years ago

shine-lcy commented 4 years ago

Algorithms in detection leaderboard include both detection-only and E2E methods. Under the same detection framework, E2E training will bring improved detection performance. I think it's somewhat unfair to algorithms that only target detection task. It is difficult for researchers who only focus on detection task to efficiently obtain information from the table to compare their own algorithms. Maybe my opinion is shallow. Hope to get your reply.

Hi @shine-lcy thank you for your valuable comments. As an improvement to the detection leaderboard, we have highlighted those E2E-based methods in italic font and a hash in front of the method.
