rpn_head

Bases: Module, function

The RPN head class for implementing the multi-channel module.

It will be used to compose the RPN layer module for building deep RPN models.

...

Notes

Similar to convolutional neural networks (CNNs) employing multiple filters, RPN allows each head to have multiple channels of parameters applied to the same data expansion. RPN defines its multi-channel parameters as \(\mathbf{w}^{0}, \mathbf{w}^{1}, \cdots, \mathbf{w}^{C-1}\), where \(C\) denotes the number of channels. Based on the data expansion, parameter reconciliation and remainder functions, the RPN head will calculate its output with such multi-channel parameters as follows: $$ \begin{equation} g(\mathbf{x} | \mathbf{w}, C) = \sum_{c=0}^{C-1} \left\langle \kappa(\mathbf{x}), \psi(\mathbf{w}^{c}) \right\rangle + \pi(\mathbf{x}), \end{equation} $$ where these multi-channel parameters are fabricated from length \(l\) to shape \((n, D)\) using the identical parameter reconciliation function.

    The RPN head class for implementing the multi-channel module.

    Notes
    ----------
    Similar to convolutional neural networks (CNNs) employing multiple filters, RPN allows each head to have multiple

    RPN defines its multi-channel parameters as $\mathbf{w}^{0}, \mathbf{w}^{1}, \cdots, \mathbf{w}^{C-1}$,

    output with such multi-channel parameters as follows:
    $$
        \begin{equation}
            g(\mathbf{x} | \mathbf{w}, C) = \sum_{c=0}^{C-1} \left\langle \kappa(\mathbf{x}), \psi(\mathbf{w}^{c}) \right\rangle + \pi(\mathbf{x}),
