@huihui308
I've been constantly modifying RTCDet's design. The original RTCDet included objectness prediction, but the objectness predicter of the latest RTCDet has been removed, leaving only classification and regression.

Thanks for replying.
Could you give me some information why you remove objectness branch?What benefit from it?

@huihui308
In my ablation study on the objectness, I found that removing it didn't impair the performance, therefore, I removed it to make the model more concise.
