Description

Prerequisites

Please answer the following question for yourself before submitting an issue.

  • [ y] I checked to make sure that this issue has not been filed already.

1. The entire URL of the documentation with the issue

https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/tf2_detection_zoo.md

2. Describe the issue

I have retrained the model with:
https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/ssd_mobilenet_v2_fpnlite_320x320_coco17_tpu-8.config

However I can't reach more than a mAP of 19%, compared to the mAP of 22.2 % reported on the modelzoo.
I also trained on coco2017.
The config file from above features a initial learning rate of 0.08, could that be too low? Or are the number of steps too few?
Because in the config file the fine_tune_checkpoint attribute is still present.
