当通过相机或图片与对象交互时，用户通常具有特定的意图。例如，他们可能想执行视觉搜索。由于大多数对象检测模型依靠图像像素作为其唯一输入，因此不希望的结果并不少见。最常见的是：缺乏对感兴趣的对象的高信心检测，或使用错误的类标签检测。当操作容量受限的移动对象检测器上设置时，问题尤其严重。在本文中，我们调查了调节移动检测器的技术，以明确说明用户意图，以简单查询的嵌入表示。与标准探测器相比，查询调制的检测器在检测给定用户查询的对象时表现出卓越的性能。得益于从标准对象检测注释中合成的大规模训练数据，查询调制的检测器也表现出色的转介表达识别系统。还可以对查询调制的检测器进行培训，以同时解决本地化用户查询和标准检测的求解，即使在规范可可任务上甚至超过了标准移动检测器。

Open-vocabulary object detection, which is concerned with the problem of detecting novel objects guided by natural language, has gained increasing attention from the community. Ideally, we would like to extend an open-vocabulary detector such that it can produce bounding box predictions based on user inputs in form of either natural language or exemplar image. This offers great flexibility and user experience for human-computer interaction. To this end, we propose a novel open-vocabulary detector based on DETR -- hence the name OV-DETR -- which, once trained, can detect any object given its class name or an exemplar image. The biggest challenge of turning DETR into an open-vocabulary detector is that it is impossible to calculate the classification cost matrix of novel classes without access to their labeled images. To overcome this challenge, we formulate the learning objective as a binary matching one between input queries (class name or exemplar image) and the corresponding objects, which learns useful correspondence to generalize to unseen queries during testing. For training, we choose to condition the Transformer decoder on the input embeddings obtained from a pre-trained vision-language model like CLIP, in order to enable matching for both text and image queries. With extensive experiments on LVIS and COCO datasets, we demonstrate that our OV-DETR -- the first end-to-end Transformer-based open-vocabulary detector -- achieves non-trivial improvements over current state of the arts.

We propose a fully convolutional one-stage object detector (FCOS) to solve object detection in a per-pixel prediction fashion, analogue to semantic segmentation. Almost all state-of-the-art object detectors such as RetinaNet, SSD, YOLOv3, and Faster R-CNN rely on pre-defined anchor boxes. In contrast, our proposed detector FCOS is anchor box free, as well as proposal free. By eliminating the predefined set of anchor boxes, FCOS completely avoids the complicated computation related to anchor boxes such as calculating overlapping during training. More importantly, we also avoid all hyper-parameters related to anchor boxes, which are often very sensitive to the final detection performance. With the only post-processing non-maximum suppression (NMS), FCOS with ResNeXt-64x4d-101 achieves 44.7% in AP with single-model and single-scale testing, surpassing previous one-stage detectors with the advantage of being much simpler. For the first time, we demonstrate a much simpler and flexible detection framework achieving improved detection accuracy. We hope that the proposed FCOS framework can serve as a simple and strong alternative for many other instance-level tasks. Code is available at:tinyurl.com/FCOSv1

将简单的体系结构与大规模预训练相结合已导致图像分类的大量改进。对于对象检测，预训练和缩放方法的确定性不佳，尤其是在长尾和开放式摄影的环境中，训练数据相对较少。在本文中，我们提出了一个强大的配方，用于将图像文本模型转移到开放式对象检测中。我们使用具有最小修改，对比度文本预训练和端到端检测微调的标准视觉变压器体系结构。我们对该设置的缩放属性的分析表明，增加图像级预训练和模型大小在下游检测任务上产生一致的改进。我们提供适应性策略和正规化，以实现零击文本条件和单次图像条件对象检测的非常强劲的性能。代码和型号可在GitHub上找到。

最近的方法表明，直接在大规模图像文本对集合上训练深神网络可以在各种识别任务上进行零拍传输。一个中心问题是如何将其推广到对象检测，这涉及本地化的非语义任务以及分类的语义任务。为了解决这个问题，我们引入了一种视觉嵌入对准方法，该方法将审计模型（例如夹子）（例如夹子）的概括能力传输到像Yolov5这样的对象检测器。我们制定了一个损耗函数，使我们能够将图像和文本嵌入在预审计的模型夹中对齐与检测器的修改语义预测头。通过这种方法，我们能够训练一个对象检测器，该对象检测器可以在可可，ILSVRC和视觉基因组零摄像机检测基准上实现最先进的性能。在推断期间，我们的模型可以适应以检测任何数量的对象类，而无需其他培训。我们还发现，标准对象检测缩放可以很好地传输到我们的方法，并在Yolov5模型和Yolov3模型的各种尺度上找到一致的改进。最后，我们开发了一种自我标记的方法，该方法可提供显着的分数改进，而无需额外的图像或标签。

Conventional training of a deep CNN based object detector demands a large number of bounding box annotations, which may be unavailable for rare categories. In this work we develop a few-shot object detector that can learn to detect novel objects from only a few annotated examples. Our proposed model leverages fully labeled base classes and quickly adapts to novel classes, using a meta feature learner and a reweighting module within a one-stage detection architecture. The feature learner extracts meta features that are generalizable to detect novel object classes, using training data from base classes with sufficient samples. The reweighting module transforms a few support examples from the novel classes to a global vector that indicates the importance or relevance of meta features for detecting the corresponding objects. These two modules, together with a detection prediction module, are trained end-to-end based on an episodic few-shot learning scheme and a carefully designed loss function. Through extensive experiments we demonstrate that our model outperforms well-established baselines by a large margin for few-shot object detection, on multiple datasets and settings. We also present analysis on various aspects of our proposed model, aiming to provide some inspiration for future few-shot detection works.

我们提出了Findit，这是一个简单而多功能的框架，统一了各种视觉接地和本地化任务，包括引用表达理解，基于文本的本地化和对象检测。我们体系结构的关键是一个有效的多尺度融合模块，该模块统一了整个任务中不同的本地化要求。此外，我们发现标准对象检测器在统一这些任务的无需特定任务设计，损失或预计算检测方面非常有效。我们的端到端可训练框架灵活，准确地响应了零，一个或多个对象的广泛的参考表达，本地化或检测查询。在这些任务上进行了共同培训，发现在引用表达和基于文本的本地化方面，胜过最高的艺术状态，并在对象检测中表现出竞争性的性能。最后，与强大的单任务基准相比，Findit可以更好地推广到分布数据和新型类别。所有这些都是通过一个单一的，统一和有效的模型来完成的。代码将发布。

什么构成一个物体？这是计算机愿景中的长期问题。为了实现这一目标，已经开发了许多基于学习的基于学习的方法来得分对象。但是，它们通常不会划过新域和未经看不见的对象。在本文中，我们倡导现有方法缺乏由人类可理解的语义管理的自上而下的监督信号。为了弥合这一差距，我们探索了已经用对齐的图像文本对培训的多模态视觉变压器（MVIT）。我们对各个域和新型对象的广泛实验显示了MVITS的最先进的性能，以使图像中的通用对象本地化。基于这些发现，我们使用多尺度特征处理和可变形的自我关注来开发一种高效且灵活的MVIT架构，可以自适应地生成给定特定语言查询的提议。我们展示了MVIT提案在各种应用中的重要性，包括开放世界对象检测，突出和伪装对象检测，监督和自我监督的检测任务。此外，MVITS提供了具有可理解文本查询的增强的交互性。代码：https://git.io/j1hpy。

标记数据通常昂贵且耗时，特别是对于诸如对象检测和实例分割之类的任务，这需要对图像的密集标签进行密集的标签。虽然几张拍摄对象检测是关于培训小说中的模型（看不见的）对象类具有很少的数据，但它仍然需要在许多标记的基础（见）类的课程上进行训练。另一方面，自我监督的方法旨在从未标记数据学习的学习表示，该数据转移到诸如物体检测的下游任务。结合几次射击和自我监督的物体检测是一个有前途的研究方向。在本调查中，我们审查并表征了几次射击和自我监督对象检测的最新方法。然后，我们给我们的主要外卖，并讨论未来的研究方向。https://gabrielhuang.github.io/fsod-survey/的项目页面

我们介绍了一种名为RobustAbnet的新表检测和结构识别方法，以检测表的边界并从异质文档图像中重建每个表的细胞结构。为了进行表检测，我们建议将Cornernet用作新的区域建议网络来生成更高质量的表建议，以更快的R-CNN，这显着提高了更快的R-CNN的定位准确性以进行表检测。因此，我们的表检测方法仅使用轻巧的RESNET-18骨干网络，在三个公共表检测基准（即CTDAR TRACKA，PUBLAYNET和IIIT-AR-13K）上实现最新性能。此外，我们提出了一种新的基于分裂和合并的表结构识别方法，其中提出了一个新型的基于CNN的新空间CNN分离线预测模块将每个检测到的表分为单元格，并且基于网格CNN的CNN合并模块是应用用于恢复生成细胞。由于空间CNN模块可以有效地在整个表图像上传播上下文信息，因此我们的表结构识别器可以坚固地识别具有较大的空白空间和几何扭曲（甚至弯曲）表的表。得益于这两种技术，我们的表结构识别方法在包括SCITSR，PubTabnet和CTDAR TrackB2-Modern在内的三个公共基准上实现了最先进的性能。此外，我们进一步证明了我们方法在识别具有复杂结构，大空间以及几何扭曲甚至弯曲形状的表上的表格上的优势。

通用视觉（GPV）系统是旨在解决各种视觉任务的模型，而无需进行架构更改。如今，GPV主要从大型完全监督的数据集中学习技能和概念。通过获取数据以迅速学习每个技能的每个概念，将GPV扩展到数万个概念都变得令人望而却步。这项工作提出了一种有效且廉价的替代方法：从监督数据集中学习技能，从Web图像搜索中学习概念，并利用GPV的关键特征：跨技能传递视觉知识的能力。我们使用跨越10K+视觉概念的1M+图像的数据集来演示3个基准上的两个现有GPV（GPV-1和VL-T5）的Webly Supumented概念扩展：5个基于可可的数据集（80个主要概念），这是一个新的策划系列，这是一个新的策划系列。基于OpenImages和VisualGenome存储库（〜500个概念）以及Web衍生的数据集（10K+概念）的5个数据集。我们还提出了一种新的体系结构GPV-2，该架构支持各种任务 - 从分类和本地化等视觉任务到Qu Viewer+语言任务，例如QA和字幕，再到更多的利基市场，例如人类对象互动检测。 GPV-2从Web数据中受益匪浅，并且在这些基准测试中胜过GPV-1和VL-T5。我们的数据，代码和Web演示可在https://prior.allenai.org/projects/gpv2上获得。

Feature pyramids are a basic component in recognition systems for detecting objects at different scales. But recent deep learning object detectors have avoided pyramid representations, in part because they are compute and memory intensive. In this paper, we exploit the inherent multi-scale, pyramidal hierarchy of deep convolutional networks to construct feature pyramids with marginal extra cost. A topdown architecture with lateral connections is developed for building high-level semantic feature maps at all scales. This architecture, called a Feature Pyramid Network (FPN), shows significant improvement as a generic feature extractor in several applications. Using FPN in a basic Faster R-CNN system, our method achieves state-of-the-art singlemodel results on the COCO detection benchmark without bells and whistles, surpassing all existing single-model entries including those from the COCO 2016 challenge winners. In addition, our method can run at 6 FPS on a GPU and thus is a practical and accurate solution to multi-scale object detection. Code will be made publicly available.

由于检测数据集的规模小，当前对象探测器的词汇量受到限制。另一方面，图像分类器的原因是大约更大的词汇表，因为他们的数据集更大，更容易收集。我们提出守则，只需在图像分类数据上培训检测器的分类器，从而扩展了探测器的词汇量到数万个概念。与现有工作不同，拒绝不会根据模型预测将图像标签分配给框，使其更容易实现和兼容一系列检测架构和骨架。我们的结果表明，即使没有箱子注释，否则差异也能产生出色的探测器。它优于开放词汇和长尾检测基准的事先工作。拒绝为所有类和8.3地图提供了2.4地图的增益，用于开放词汇LVIS基准测试中的新型类。在标准的LVIS基准测试中，守护者达到41.7地图所有课程和41.7地图以获得罕见课程。我们首次培训一个探测器，其中包含所有二十一千类的ImageNet数据集，并显示它在没有微调的情况下推广到新数据集。代码可在https://github.com/facebookresearch/dorm提供。

大多数情况下的对象识别已被接近作为一种热门问题，这些问题对待课程是离散和无关的。必须将每个图像区域分配给一组对象的一个​​成员，包括背景类，忽略对象类型中的任何相似之处。在这项工作中，我们比较了从一种热处理中学到的类嵌入式的错误统计数据，其中来自自然语言处理或知识图中广泛应用于开放世界对象检测的语义结构嵌入。在多个知识嵌入和距离指标上的广泛实验结果表明基于知识的类表示，与挑战COCO和CITYCAPES对象检测基准相比，与一个热方法相比，与一个热方法相比，在表现上进行了更多的语义接地错误分类。通过提出基于Keypoint的基于和基于变换器的对象检测架构的知识嵌入式设计，我们将研究结果概括为多个物体检测架构。

The prevailing framework for matching multimodal inputs is based on a two-stage process: 1) detecting proposals with an object detector and 2) matching text queries with proposals. Existing two-stage solutions mostly focus on the matching step. In this paper, we argue that these methods overlook an obvious \emph{mismatch} between the roles of proposals in the two stages: they generate proposals solely based on the detection confidence (i.e., query-agnostic), hoping that the proposals contain all instances mentioned in the text query (i.e., query-aware). Due to this mismatch, chances are that proposals relevant to the text query are suppressed during the filtering process, which in turn bounds the matching performance. To this end, we propose VL-NMS, which is the first method to yield query-aware proposals at the first stage. VL-NMS regards all mentioned instances as critical objects, and introduces a lightweight module to predict a score for aligning each proposal with a critical object. These scores can guide the NMS operation to filter out proposals irrelevant to the text query, increasing the recall of critical objects, resulting in a significantly improved matching performance. Since VL-NMS is agnostic to the matching step, it can be easily integrated into any state-of-the-art two-stage matching methods. We validate the effectiveness of VL-NMS on two multimodal matching tasks, namely referring expression grounding and image-text matching. Extensive ablation studies on several baselines and benchmarks consistently demonstrate the superiority of VL-NMS.

Consider a scenario in one-shot query-guided object localization where neither an image of the object nor the object category name is available as a query. In such a scenario, a hand-drawn sketch of the object could be a choice for a query. However, hand-drawn crude sketches alone, when used as queries, might be ambiguous for object localization, e.g., a sketch of a laptop could be confused for a sofa. On the other hand, a linguistic definition of the category, e.g., a small portable computer small enough to use in your lap" along with the sketch query, gives better visual and semantic cues for object localization. In this work, we present a multimodal query-guided object localization approach under the challenging open-set setting. In particular, we use queries from two modalities, namely, hand-drawn sketch and description of the object (also known as gloss), to perform object localization. Multimodal query-guided object localization is a challenging task, especially when a large domain gap exists between the queries and the natural images, as well as due to the challenge of combining the complementary and minimal information present across the queries. For example, hand-drawn crude sketches contain abstract shape information of an object, while the text descriptions often capture partial semantic information about a given object category. To address the aforementioned challenges, we present a novel cross-modal attention scheme that guides the region proposal network to generate object proposals relevant to the input queries and a novel orthogonal projection-based proposal scoring technique that scores each proposal with respect to the queries, thereby yielding the final localization results. ...

许多开放世界应用程序需要检测新的对象，但最先进的对象检测和实例分段网络在此任务中不屈服。关键问题在于他们假设没有任何注释的地区应被抑制为否定，这教导了将未经讨犯的对象视为背景的模型。为了解决这个问题，我们提出了一个简单但令人惊讶的强大的数据增强和培训方案，我们呼唤学习来检测每件事（LDET）。为避免抑制隐藏的对象，背景对象可见但未标记，我们粘贴在从原始图像的小区域采样的背景图像上粘贴带有的注释对象。由于仅对这种综合增强的图像培训遭受域名，我们将培训与培训分为两部分：1）培训区域分类和回归头在增强图像上，2）在原始图像上训练掩模头。通过这种方式，模型不学习将隐藏对象作为背景分类，同时概括到真实图像。 LDET导致开放式世界实例分割任务中的许多数据集的重大改进，表现出CoCo上的交叉类别概括的基线，以及对UVO和城市的交叉数据集评估。

现有语言接地模型通常使用对象提案瓶颈：预先训练的探测器提出了场景中的对象，模型学会从这些框提案中选择答案，而不会参加原始图像或3D点云。对象探测器通常在固定词汇上培训，其对象和属性通常过于限制开放域语言接地，其中话语可以指在各种抽象层面的视觉实体，例如椅子，椅子的椅子，或椅子前腿的尖端。我们为3D场景提出了一个用于接地语言的模型，绕过具有三个主要创新的盒子提案瓶颈：i）横跨语言流的迭代注意，点云特征流和3D框提案。 ii）具有非参数实体查询的变压器解码器，用于对对象和部分参考进行解码3D框。 iii）通过将物体检测视为由候选类别标签列表的参考词汇的接地为基础，从3D对象注释和语言接地注释的联合监督。这些创新在流行的3D语言接地基准上之前的方法上产生了显着的定量收益（对SR3D基准测试的绝对改善）。我们消除了我们的每一个创新，向模型表现出贡献。当在具有次要变化的2D图像上应用于语言接地时，它会与最先进的，同时收敛于GPU时间的一半。代码和检查点将在https://github.com/nickgkan/beaut_detr中提供

尽管对象检测方面取得了很大进展，但由于实例级边界盒注释所需的巨大人性化，大多数现有方法都仅限于一小一少量的对象类别。为了减轻问题，最近的开放词汇和零射击检测方法试图检测培训期间未见的对象类别。但是，这些方法仍然依赖于一组基类上手动提供的边界盒注释。我们提出了一个开放的词汇检测框架，可以在没有手动提供边界盒注释的情况下培训。我们的方法通过利用预先训练的视觉语言模型的本地化能力来实现这一目标，并产生可直接用于训练对象探测器的伪边界盒标签。 Coco，Pascal VOC，Objects365和LVIS的实验结果证明了我们方法的有效性。具体而言，我们的方法优于使用人类注释的边界箱训练的最先进（SOTA），即使我们的培训源未配备手动边界盒标签，也可以在COCO新型类别上用3％AP培训。在利用手动边界箱标签作为基线时，我们的方法主要超过8％的AP。

The goal of this paper is to serve as a guide for selecting a detection architecture that achieves the right speed/memory/accuracy balance for a given application and platform. To this end, we investigate various ways to trade accuracy for speed and memory usage in modern convolutional object detection systems. A number of successful systems have been proposed in recent years, but apples-toapples comparisons are difficult due to different base feature extractors (e.g., VGG, Residual Networks), different default image resolutions, as well as different hardware and software platforms. We present a unified implementation of the Faster R-CNN [31], R-FCN [6] and SSD [26] systems, which we view as "meta-architectures" and trace out the speed/accuracy trade-off curve created by using alternative feature extractors and varying other critical parameters such as image size within each of these meta-architectures. On one extreme end of this spectrum where speed and memory are critical, we present a detector that achieves real time speeds and can be deployed on a mobile device. On the opposite end in which accuracy is critical, we present a detector that achieves state-of-the-art performance measured on the COCO detection task.
