I don't think pjreddie invented SSD, at least he's not on the author list. https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02325 https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02325 Yolo is great tho

I don't think pjreddie invented SSD, at least he's not on the author list. https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02325 https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02325 Yolo is great though and a fork is very actively maintained on GitHub at alexeyAB/darknet. Darknet itself is a nice library that doesn't need any dependencies aside from CUDA. It's all C (albeit uncommented) and quite easy to walk through if you want to see at a low level how deep learning frameworks work.
