Roadmap

High-level plan for Oriented-Det after v0.1 (geometry, IoU/NMS, DOTA, three ResNet-FPN detectors, config training, Hub weights).

Maintainers: a longer planning doc lives at docs/roadmap-detailed.md (gitignored, local only).

Releases

Version Focus
v0.1 Shipped — Oriented R-CNN, Rotated Faster R-CNN, Rotated RetinaNet; DOTA; odet train; Hub
v0.1.1 Shipped — ProbIoU Faster R-CNN 1×/3× on Hub (77.57% / 83.42% eval-val mAP50)
v0.2 Rotated FCOS — anchor-free single-stage; DOTA le90 1×/3× configs
v0.3 HRSC2016 and FAIR1M dataset loaders; cross-dataset benchmarks
v0.4 Production speed tier: RTMDet-R, then native YOLO-OBB
v0.5–v0.8 Swin-FPN backbone; Oriented R-CNN + Swin-T on Hub; extend to FCOS / speed models
v1.0 Stable API, hosted docs, complete model zoo (accuracy / balanced / speed tiers)

Model tiers (target v1.0)

Tier Models
Accuracy Oriented R-CNN, Rotated Faster R-CNN (probiou) — ResNet50 and Swin-T
Balanced Rotated FCOS
Speed RTMDet-R, native Rotated YOLO-OBB
Datasets DOTA, HRSC2016, FAIR1M

Ongoing

  • Hosted MkDocs site and dataset tutorials
  • Optional fused CUDA rotated IoU/NMS kernels (after single-stage models land)
  • Export parity for new detectors (ONNX head wrappers + postprocess)

Out of scope (for now)

  • Ultralytics wrapper or AGPL dependencies
  • End-to-end DETR-style detectors in core odet train
  • MMCV / MMDet as runtime dependencies
