See the url in my comment (search for the term rfdetr-2xlarge). 2XL does indeed go up to 800x800 and has PML1.0 license instead of apache 2.0. Rescaling is fine for some purposes but but not for all. For many domain-specific (often less com

“RF-DETR is both faster and more accurate and truly open source with an Apache 2.0 license” Misleading marketing statement. The catch is that for image resolutions >=700x700pixels (most production usecases), the roboflow license is actua

In the case of a universe of finite size, this analogy explains how there can be such a thing as a finite space without there being boundaries provided the space is (slightly) curved. So this has less to do with an infinitely sized universe

Solar PV takes up a lot of land. Rich, densely populated countries (like the Netherlands) find the areas outside of the cities to be more valuable as (recreational) nature, for upcoming housing projects, or for agricultural use. Another (sh

Arecibo and FAST are giant immovables dishes (essentially a parabolic valley covered by some electrically conducting material). The receivers suspended above these dishes are somewhat moveable, but that is about it. That means they can only

About the legal basis: "RDS’ [Royal Dutch Shell] reduction obligation ensues from the unwritten standard of care laid down in Book 6 Section 162 Dutch Civil Code, which means that acting in conflict with what is generally accepted acco

Incorrect. It comes from an IPCC report: "In model pathways with no or limited overshoot of 1.5°C, global net anthropogenic CO2 emissions decline by about 45% from 2010 levels by 2030 (40–60% interquartile range), reaching net zero aro
