Check out more models and experimental results [here](https://github.com/tianzhi0549/FCOS#models). - **Faster training:** With the same hardwares, FCOS also requires less training hours (6.5h vs. 8.8h) than Faster R-CNN. - **State-of-the-art performance:** Our best model based on ResNeXt-64x4d-101 and deformable convolutions achieves **49.0%** in AP on COCO test-dev (with multi-scale testing). ## Updates -### 11 September 2019 - - New models with much improved performance are released.
