## Introduction
## 简介
We developed a series of lightweight models, named `PP-PicoDet`. Because of the excellent performance, our models are very suitable for deployment on mobile or CPU. For more details, please refer to our [report on arXiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.00902).
-<aname="latency">Latency:</a> All our models test on `Intel-Xeon-Gold-6148` CPU with MKLDNN by 10 threads and `Qualcomm Snapdragon 865(4xA77+4xA55)` with 4 threads by arm8 and with FP16. In the above table, test CPU latency on Paddle-Inference and testing Mobile latency with `Lite`->[Paddle-Lite](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle-Lite).
- PicoDet is trained on COCO train2017 dataset and evaluated on COCO val2017. And PicoDet used 4 GPUs for training and all checkpoints are trained with default settings and hyperparameters.
- Benchmark test: When testing the speed benchmark, the post-processing is not included in the exported model, you need to set `-o export.benchmark=True` or manually modify [runtime.yml](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleDetection/blob/develop/configs/runtime.yml#L12).

-Install [Paddle2ONNX](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle2ONNX) >= 0.7 and ONNX > 1.10.1, for details, please refer to [Tutorials of Export ONNX Model](../../deploy/EXPORT_ONNX_MODEL.md)
-Notes: Now the accuracy of post quant is abnormal and this problem is being solved.
-注意: 离线量化模型精度问题正在解决中.

We developed a series of lightweight models, named `PP-PicoDet`. Because of the excellent performance, our models are very suitable for deployment on mobile or CPU. For more details, please refer to our [report on arXiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.00902).
PP-PicoDet模型有如下特点：
- 🌟 Higher mAP: the **first** object detectors that surpass mAP(0.5:0.95) **30+** within 1M parameters when the input size is 416.
-<aname="latency">Latency:</a> All our models test on `Intel-Xeon-Gold-6148` CPU with MKLDNN by 10 threads and `Qualcomm Snapdragon 865(4xA77+4xA55)` with 4 threads by arm8 and with FP16. In the above table, test CPU latency on Paddle-Inference and testing Mobile latency with `Lite`->[Paddle-Lite](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle-Lite).
- PicoDet is trained on COCO train2017 dataset and evaluated on COCO val2017. And PicoDet used 4 GPUs for training and all checkpoints are trained with default settings and hyperparameters.
- Benchmark test: When testing the speed benchmark, the post-processing is not included in the exported model, you need to set `-o export.benchmark=True` or manually modify [runtime.yml](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleDetection/blob/develop/configs/runtime.yml#L12).
If the GPU is out of memory during training, reduce the batch_size in TrainReader, and reduce the base_lr in LearningRate proportionally. At the same time, the configs we published are all trained with 4 GPUs. If the number of GPUs is changed to 1, the base_lr needs to be reduced by a factor of 4.
- If no post processing is required, please specify: `-o export.benchmark=True` (if -o has already appeared, delete -o here) or manually modify corresponding fields in [runtime.yml](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleDetection/blob/develop/configs/runtime.yml).
- If no NMS is required, please specify: `-o export.nms=True` or manually modify corresponding fields in [runtime.yml](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleDetection/blob/develop/configs/runtime.yml).
