What does agn_hm stand for? #89

📚 Documentation Issue

This issue category is for problems about existing documentation, not for asking how-to questions.

Hello. I looked through the repository but could not find out what agn_hm stands for. I also looked through the CenterNet paper but could not find what this stands for.

The layer definition is in CenterNetHead when self.with_agn_hm = True and it is usually just one layer of Conv2d with stride = 1.

What is the purpose of agn_hm?

When do we need it? and when do we not need it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, it seems that 'agn_hm' stands for "adaptive Gaussian heatmap". It is a type of heatmap used in object detection tasks to indicate the presence and location of an object in an image.
