Hey everyone,
We know that computing resources may be really difficult to come by, especially for beginners, so we have written a new starter notebook that allows you to train a MaskRCNN model directly on Colab.
This, in addition to the existing Mask RCNN baseline repo should allow you to plug and play models for easy submission and experimentation.
As an alternative to Colab, Paperspace is an amazing option. Their gradient community notebooks let you use free cloud GPU’s and CPU’s and also provide internal storage that let you save models and resume training after the deployment time expires.
