ResNet34-SSD: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices
ResNet34-SSD is a single-stage object detection model that integrates the ResNet34 backbone with the SSD (Single Shot MultiBox Detector) framework. It is optimized for real-time detection tasks and supports multiple deployment backends including PyTorch, TensorFlow, and ONNX.
This is based on the implementation of ResNet34-SSD found here. This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.
Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.
