Fig. 1:SSD Framework. (a) SSD only needs a input image and ground truth boxes to each object during training. In a convolutional fashion, we evaluate a small set (e.g. 4) of the default boxes of different aspect ratios at each location In several feature maps with different scales (e.g.8x8 and 4x4 in (b) and (c)). For each default box, we are predict both the shape offsets and the confidences for all object categories (C1; c2;; CP )). At training time, we have the default boxes to the ground truth boxes. For example, we have matched two default boxes with the cat and one with the dog, which are treated as positives and the R EST as negatives. The model loss is a weighted sum between localization loss (e.g. Smooth L1 [6]) and confidence loss (e.g. Softmax).Related background--crnnThe network structure of CRNNcomparison between textboxes and SSD network structureTEXTBOXES Network Structure SSD network structureoutput of Text-box layers (as with SSDs)

The rest of the aspect ratios are 2,3,7 and which are the placed. The Black (aspect ratio:5) and blue (ar:1) default boxes are centered in their. The green (Ar:5) and red (ar:1) boxes have the same aspect the ratios and a vertical offset (half of the height of the cell) to the grid center respectively convolution filter size loss function

Effect Show Summary and Harvest Point the original SSD is not directly used in the text, need to make a lot of changes to achieve better results, which the author in the experiment also proved that now more and more use faster R-cnn,ssd,yolo, Such generic target detection methods are modified to be used on specific target detection (e.g., text, pedestrian), these methods are not only fast, but also high robustness, very important point, more and more inclined to end-to-end training, this is because the single stage and the traditional step-wise method has many advantages , for example, the overall training is simple, no stage cohesion on the performance loss, there is no gradual accumulation of errors and so on;
