Yes, the SSD (Single Shot Multibox Detector) model is used in your object detection

project. The specific model you employed is based on MobileNetV3 architecture and
is pre-trained on the COCO (Common Objects in Context) dataset. The SSD model is
known for its efficiency and accuracy in object detection tasks. It works by
predicting bounding boxes and class scores directly from feature maps in a single
pass, making it suitable for real-time applications.

In your code:

pythonCopy code
configPath = 'ssd_mobilenet_v3_large_coco_2020_01_14.pbtxt'
weightsPath = 'frozen_inference_graph.pb'

net = cv2.dnn_DetectionModel(weightsPath, configPath)

Here, ssd_mobilenet_v3_large_coco_2020_01_14.pbtxt is the configuration file, and

frozen_inference_graph.pb contains the pre-trained weights for the SSD MobileNetV3
model. These files are essential components of the SSD model used for object
detection in the project.
