Question 1: Short answer
mediumAI-checkedObject DetectionTwo people stand close together. A detector gives one box per person, with scores 0.95 and 0.80, and the boxes have an IoU of 0.6. Plain non-maximum suppression with threshold 0.5 would delete the 0.80 box. Linear Soft-NMS keeps it and instead multiplies its score by whenever its IoU with the selected box is at least the threshold. What is its new score?
