Is Faster R-CNN Doing Well for Pedestrian Detection?

By Liliang Zhang, Liang Lin, Xiaodan Liang, Kaiming He

Introduction

This code is relative to an arXiv tech report, which is also accepted on ECCV 2016.

The RPN code in this repo is written based on the MATLAB re-implementation of Faster R-CNN. Details about Faster R-CNN are in: ShaoqingRen/faster_rcnn.

This BF code in this repo is written based on Piotr's Image & Video Matlab Toolbox. Details about Piotr's Toolbox are in: pdollar/toolbox.

This code has been tested on Ubuntu 14.04 with MATLAB 2014b.
