basically the error is somewhere in
# convert image to Tensor
    image_tensor = img_transforms(img).float()
    image_tensor = image_tensor.unsqueeze_(0)
    input_img = Variable(image_tensor.type(Tensor))
    # run inference on the model and get detections
    with torch.no_grad():
        detections = model(input_img)
        detections = utils.non_max_suppression(detections, 80, conf_thres, nms_thres)
    return detections[0]
