Tensorflow Object Detection API - show validation loss in tensorboard

Hi all. I’ve been trying to display validation loss in tensorboard while training objection detection models using TFOD 2. I’m using model_main_tf2.py to carry out the training job (following this article - Training Custom Object Detector — TensorFlow 2 Object Detection API tutorial documentation). currently, tensorboard only shows trainig losses. Can anybody help me out?

Hi @Kabyanil_Talukdar ,

I strongly suggest utilizing the TensorFlow Official Model Garden to circumvent issues related to outdated code commonly found in research codebases. Unlike the research repositories, the Official Model Garden is consistently updated and aligned with the latest changes in TensorFlow and other libraries.You can find the latest Object detection tutorial from Model Garden

I hope this will help you.

Thanks
