# FCOS for Object Detection

## Introduction

FCOS (Fully Convolutional One-Stage Object Detection) is a fast anchor-free object detection framework with strong performance. We reproduced the model of the paper, and improved and optimized the accuracy of the FCOS.

**Highlights:**

- Training Time: The training time of the model of `fcos_r50_fpn_1x` on Tesla v100 with 8 GPU is only 8.5 hours.

**Notes:**

- FCOS is trained on COCO train2017 dataset and evaluated on val2017 results of `mAP(IoU=0.5:0.95)`.
