Suspect choice for the paper to only include a single DETR from 2022 in the headline pareto chart and claim to have "the strongest AP–latency trade-off"... Clearly the authors were aware of models that exceed theirs given they even mentioned some of them in the introduction.

> In parallel, DETR [5] cast detection as end-to-end set prediction, and its real-time descendants (RT-DETR [98], D-FINE [55], DEIM [21], RF-DETR [62]) have narrowed the accuracy gap with CNN based detectors on standard benchmarks.

Lots of attention regarding YOLO today, not sure why. RF-DETR is still SOTA.

When did YOLO versions jump from 13 to 26? What's next, YOLO XP?

it's fast for the classes
