FoveaBox is an accurate, flexible and completely anchor-free object detection system for object detection framework, as presented in our paper [https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.03797](https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.03797):
Different from previous anchor-based methods, FoveaBox directly learns the object existing possibility and the bounding box coordinates without anchor reference. This is achieved by: (a) predicting category-sensitive semantic maps for the object existing possibility, and (b) producing category-agnostic bounding box for each position that potentially contains an object.
