Hi Gil,
I understand from your query that you want to understand the reasons for drop in accuracy in “yolov2” and want to check new analysis tools for deep learning networks in MATLAB.
The drop in detection scores when adding ellipses to the background of the image could be due to a variety of factors. Here are some potential reasons:
- Overfitting: Your network may have overfitted to the training data. Since the training images consist of black rectangles without any ellipses in the background, the network might not generalize well to new patterns or objects in the background.
- Feature Confusion: The addition of ellipses could introduce new features that the network confuses with features of the black rectangles. This can lead to a reduced confidence in the detection of the rectangles.
- Background Context: YOLO networks consider the context of the surrounding environment. If the ellipses significantly alter the background context, the network might not recognize the scene as containing the object it was trained to detect.
To analyse and diagnose the issues with your network in MATLAB, you can use the “Deep Network Designer”. This app allows for an interactive exploration of the layers and structure of the network. You can also edit the network and analyse activations. You may refer the following documentation to learn more about Deep Network Designer: https://www.mathworks.com/help/deeplearning/gs/get-started-with-deep-network-designer.html
To improve your model's performance, consider adding more variability to your training data, including images with ellipses and other background noise. This will help the network learn to generalize better to new situations. Regularization techniques, such as dropout or data augmentation, can also help reduce overfitting.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Prasanna
