Residual Features and Unified Prediction Network for Single Stage Detection

Recently, a lot of single stage detectors using multi-scale features have been actively proposed. They are much faster than two stage detectors that use region proposal networks (RPN) without much degradation in the detection performances. However, the feature maps in the lower layers close to the input which are responsible for detecting small objects in a single stage detector have a problem of insufficient representation power because they are too shallow. There is also a structural contradiction that the feature maps have to deliver low-level information to next layers as well as contain high-level abstraction for prediction. In this paper, we propose a method to enrich the representation power of feature maps using Resblock and deconvolution layers. In addition, a unified prediction module is applied to generalize output results and boost earlier layers' representation power for prediction. The proposed method enables more precise prediction, which achieved higher score than SSD on PASCAL VOC and MS COCO. In addition, it maintains the advantage of fast computation of a single stage detector, which requires much less computation than other detectors with similar performance.

Superpixel-based Semantic Segmentation Trained by Statistical Process Control

Semantic segmentation, like other fields of computer vision, has seen a remarkable performance advance by the use of deep convolution neural networks. However, considering that neighboring pixels are heavily dependent on each other, both learning and testing of these methods have a lot of redundant operations. To resolve this problem, the proposed network is trained and tested with only 0.37% of total pixels by superpixel-based sampling and largely reduced the complexity of upsampling calculation. The hypercolumn feature maps are constructed by pyramid module in combination with the convolution layers of the base network. Since the proposed method uses a very small number of sampled pixels, the end-to-end learning of the entire network is difficult with a common learning rate for all the layers. In order to resolve this problem, the learning rate after sampling is controlled by statistical process control (SPC) of gradients in each layer. The proposed method performs better than or equal to the conventional methods that use much more samples on Pascal Context, SUN-RGBD dataset.

Enhancement of SSD by concatenating feature maps for object detection

We propose an object detection method that improves the accuracy of the conventional SSD (Single Shot Multibox Detector), which is one of the top object detection algorithms in both aspects of accuracy and speed. The performance of a deep network is known to be improved as the number of feature maps increases. However, it is difficult to improve the performance by simply raising the number of feature maps. In this paper, we propose and analyze how to use feature maps effectively to improve the performance of the conventional SSD. The enhanced performance was obtained by changing the structure close to the classifier network, rather than growing layers close to the input data, e.g., by replacing VGGNet with ResNet. The proposed network is suitable for sharing the weights in the classifier networks, by which property, the training can be faster with better generalization power. For the Pascal VOC 2007 test set trained with VOC 2007 and VOC 2012 training sets, the proposed network with the input size of 300 x 300 achieved 78.5% mAP (mean average precision) at the speed of 35.0 FPS (frame per second), while the network with a 512 x 512 sized input achieved 80.8% mAP at 16.6 FPS using Nvidia Titan X GPU. The proposed network shows state-of-the-art mAP, which is better than those of the conventional SSD, YOLO, Faster-RCNN and RFCN. Also, it is faster than Faster-RCNN and RFCN.
