One more question, i trained a Deformable ConvNets for Classification task and have gained accurancy. Then i extract the value of feature map used for predicting the offset, the value range from -99 to 99 approximately. This result also bothered me, whether the value should be squeezed to a reasonable range, such as [-5, 5]

num_deformable_groups * 2 * kH * kW is for normal Deformable Conv.
num_deformable_groups * 3 * kH * kW is for modulated Deformable Conv.

@xvjiarui Thanks for your reply! The second question about the offset value range, any help?
