      Build a Keras model with SSD architecture, see references.
  
      The model consists of convolutional feature layers and a number of convolutional
      predictor layers that take their input from different feature layers.
      The model is fully convolutional.
  
      The implementation found here is a smaller version of the original architecture
      used in the paper (where the base network consists of a modified VGG-16 extended
      by a few convolutional feature layers), but of course it could easily be changed to
      an arbitrarily large SSD architecture by following the general design pattern used here.
      This implementation has 7 convolutional layers and 4 convolutional predictor
      layers that take their input from layers 4, 5, 6, and 7, respectively.
  
      Most of the arguments that this function takes are only needed for the anchor
      box layers. In case you're training the network, the parameters passed here must
      be the same as the ones used to set up `SSDBoxEncoder`. In case you're loading
      trained weights, the parameters passed here must be the same as the ones used
      to produce the trained weights.
  
      Some of these arguments are explained in more detail in the documentation of the
      `SSDBoxEncoder` class.
  
      Note: Requires Keras v2.0 or later. Training currently works only with the
      TensorFlow backend (v1.0 or later).
  
      Arguments:
          image_size (tuple): The input image size in the format `(height, width, channels)`.
          n_classes (int): The number of positive classes, e.g. 20 for Pascal VOC, 80 for MS COCO.
          mode (str, optional): One of 'training', 'inference' and 'inference_fast'. In 'training' mode,
              the model outputs the raw prediction tensor, while in 'inference' and 'inference_fast' modes,
              the raw predictions are decoded into absolute coordinates and filtered via confidence thresholding,
              non-maximum suppression, and top-k filtering. The difference between latter two modes is that
              'inference' follows the exact procedure of the original Caffe implementation, while
              'inference_fast' uses a faster prediction decoding procedure.
          l2_regularization (float, optional): The L2-regularization rate. Applies to all convolutional layers.
          min_scale (float, optional): The smallest scaling factor for the size of the anchor boxes as a fraction
              of the shorter side of the input images.
          max_scale (float, optional): The largest scaling factor for the size of the anchor boxes as a fraction
              of the shorter side of the input images. All scaling factors between the smallest and the
              largest will be linearly interpolated. Note that the second to last of the linearly interpolated
              scaling factors will actually be the scaling factor for the last predictor layer, while the last
              scaling factor is used for the second box for aspect ratio 1 in the last predictor layer
              if `two_boxes_for_ar1` is `True`.
          scales (list, optional): A list of floats containing scaling factors per convolutional predictor layer.
              This list must be one element longer than the number of predictor layers. The first `k` elements are the
              scaling factors for the `k` predictor layers, while the last element is used for the second box
              for aspect ratio 1 in the last predictor layer if `two_boxes_for_ar1` is `True`. This additional
              last scaling factor must be passed either way, even if it is not being used. If a list is passed,
              this argument overrides `min_scale` and `max_scale`. All scaling factors must be greater than zero.
          aspect_ratios_global (list, optional): The list of aspect ratios for which anchor boxes are to be
              generated. This list is valid for all predictor layers. The original implementation uses more aspect ratios
              for some predictor layers and fewer for others. If you want to do that, too, then use the next argument instead.
          aspect_ratios_per_layer (list, optional): A list containing one aspect ratio list for each predictor layer.
              This allows you to set the aspect ratios for each predictor layer individually. If a list is passed,
              it overrides `aspect_ratios_global`.
          two_boxes_for_ar1 (bool, optional): Only relevant for aspect ratio lists that contain 1. Will be ignored otherwise.
              If `True`, two anchor boxes will be generated for aspect ratio 1. The first will be generated
              using the scaling factor for the respective layer, the second one will be generated using
              geometric mean of said scaling factor and next bigger scaling factor.
          steps (list, optional): `None` or a list with as many elements as there are predictor layers. The elements can be
              either ints/floats or tuples of two ints/floats. These numbers represent for each predictor layer how many
              pixels apart the anchor box center points should be vertically and horizontally along the spatial grid over
              the image. If the list contains ints/floats, then that value will be used for both spatial dimensions.
              If the list contains tuples of two ints/floats, then they represent `(step_height, step_width)`.
              If no steps are provided, then they will be computed such that the anchor box center points will form an
              equidistant grid within the image dimensions.
          offsets (list, optional): `None` or a list with as many elements as there are predictor layers. The elements can be
              either floats or tuples of two floats. These numbers represent for each predictor layer how many
              pixels from the top and left boarders of the image the top-most and left-most anchor box center points should be
              as a fraction of `steps`. The last bit is important: The offsets are not absolute pixel values, but fractions
              of the step size specified in the `steps` argument. If the list contains floats, then that value will
              be used for both spatial dimensions. If the list contains tuples of two floats, then they represent
              `(vertical_offset, horizontal_offset)`. If no offsets are provided, then they will default to 0.5 of the step size,
              which is also the recommended setting.
          clip_boxes (bool, optional): If `True`, clips the anchor box coordinates to stay within image boundaries.
          variances (list, optional): A list of 4 floats >0. The anchor box offset for each coordinate will be divided by
              its respective variance value.
          coords (str, optional): The box coordinate format to be used internally by the model (i.e. this is not the input format
              of the ground truth labels). Can be either 'centroids' for the format `(cx, cy, w, h)` (box center coordinates, width,
              and height), 'minmax' for the format `(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)`, or 'corners' for the format `(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax)`.
          normalize_coords (bool, optional): Set to `True` if the model is supposed to use relative instead of absolute coordinates,
              i.e. if the model predicts box coordinates within [0,1] instead of absolute coordinates.
          subtract_mean (array-like, optional): `None` or an array-like object of integers or floating point values
              of any shape that is broadcast-compatible with the image shape. The elements of this array will be
              subtracted from the image pixel intensity values. For example, pass a list of three integers
              to perform per-channel mean normalization for color images.
          divide_by_stddev (array-like, optional): `None` or an array-like object of non-zero integers or
              floating point values of any shape that is broadcast-compatible with the image shape. The image pixel
              intensity values will be divided by the elements of this array. For example, pass a list
              of three integers to perform per-channel standard deviation normalization for color images.
          swap_channels (list, optional): Either `False` or a list of integers representing the desired order in which the input
              image channels should be swapped.
          confidence_thresh (float, optional): A float in [0,1), the minimum classification confidence in a specific
              positive class in order to be considered for the non-maximum suppression stage for the respective class.
              A lower value will result in a larger part of the selection process being done by the non-maximum suppression
              stage, while a larger value will result in a larger part of the selection process happening in the confidence
              thresholding stage.
          iou_threshold (float, optional): A float in [0,1]. All boxes that have a Jaccard similarity of greater than `iou_threshold`
              with a locally maximal box will be removed from the set of predictions for a given class, where 'maximal' refers
              to the box's confidence score.
          top_k (int, optional): The number of highest scoring predictions to be kept for each batch item after the
              non-maximum suppression stage.
          nms_max_output_size (int, optional): The maximal number of predictions that will be left over after the NMS stage.
          return_predictor_sizes (bool, optional): If `True`, this function not only returns the model, but also
              a list containing the spatial dimensions of the predictor layers. This isn't strictly necessary since
              you can always get their sizes easily via the Keras API, but it's convenient and less error-prone
              to get them this way. They are only relevant for training anyway (SSDBoxEncoder needs to know the
              spatial dimensions of the predictor layers), for inference you don't need them.
  
      Returns:
          model: The Keras SSD model.
          predictor_sizes (optional): A Numpy array containing the `(height, width)` portion
              of the output tensor shape for each convolutional predictor layer. During
              training, the generator function needs this in order to transform
              the ground truth labels into tensors of identical structure as the
              output tensors of the model, which is in turn needed for the cost
              function.
