Hi, while reading yours code, I don't understand the mean of "num_priors". Can you tell me the answer? Thank you

M2Det is based on SSD: Single Shot Multibox Detector. Concept of prior is from SSD. You should read SSD first to understand what is priors. There are no details about what prior is in M2Det paper.
