# MobileNet-SSD
## SSD Object Detection
This model built with paddle fluid is still under active development and is not
the final version. We welcome feedbacks.
### Introduction
[Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02325) framework for object detection is based on a feed-forward convolutional network. The early network is a standard convolutional architecture for image classification, such as VGG, ResNet, or MobileNet, which is als called base network. In this tutorial we used [MobileNet](https://arxiv.org/abs/1704.04861).
### Data Preparation
You can use [PASCAL VOC dataset](http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/) or [MS-COCO dataset](http://cocodataset.org/#download).
#### PASCAL VOC Dataset
Download the PASCAL VOC dataset, skip this step if you already have one.
