• Abstract summary: We introduce the polar coordinate system to the deep learning detector for the first time, and propose an anchor free Polar Remote Sensing Object Detector (P-RSDet) In P-RSDet method, arbitrary-oriented object detection can be achieved by predicting the center point and regressing one polar radius and two polar angles. Experiments on DOTA, UCAS-AOD and NWPU VHR-10 datasets show that our P-RSDet achieves state-of-the-art performances with simpler model and less regression parameters.

• Abstract: Arbitrary-oriented object detection is an important task in the field of remote sensing object detection. Existing studies have shown that the polar coordinate system has obvious advantages in dealing with the problem of rotating object modeling, that is, using fewer parameters to achieve more accurate rotating object detection. However, present state-of-the-art detectors based on deep learning are all modeled in Cartesian coordinates. In this article, we introduce the polar coordinate system to the deep learning detector for the first time, and propose an anchor free Polar Remote Sensing Object Detector (P-RSDet), which can achieve competitive detection accuracy via uses simpler object representation model and less regression parameters. In P-RSDet method, arbitrary-oriented object detection can be achieved by predicting the center point and regressing one polar radius and two polar angles. Besides, in order to express the geometric constraint relationship between the polar radius and the polar angle, a Polar Ring Area Loss function is proposed to improve the prediction accuracy of the corner position. Experiments on DOTA, UCAS-AOD and NWPU VHR-10 datasets show that our P-RSDet achieves state-of-the-art performances with simpler model and less regression parameters.

• Detecting Rotated Objects as Gaussian Distributions and Its 3-D Generalization [81.29406957201458]
  Existing detection methods commonly use a parameterized bounding box (BBox) to model and detect (horizontal) objects. We argue that such a mechanism has fundamental limitations in building an effective regression loss for rotation detection. We propose to model the rotated objects as Gaussian distributions. We extend our approach from 2-D to 3-D with a tailored algorithm design to handle the heading estimation.

  3D object detection in autonomous driving aims to reason "what" and "where" the objects of interest present in a 3D world. Existing methods often adopt the canonical Cartesian coordinate system with perpendicular axis. We propose a new Polar Transformer (PolarFormer) for more accurate 3D object detection in the bird's-eye-view (BEV) taking as input only multi-camera 2D images.

  We first show that the boundary problem suffered in existing dominant regression-based rotation detectors, is caused by angular periodicity or corner ordering. We transform the angular prediction task from a regression problem to a classification one. For the resulting circularly distributed angle classification problem, we first devise a Circular Smooth Label technique to handle the periodicity of angle and increase the error tolerance to adjacent angles.
