• Abstract summary: In this work, we quantitatively analyze label problems that objects may explicitly or implicitly have multiple labels. We propose a soft-sampling methods with hybrid training scheduler to deal with the label imbalance. Our method yields a dramatic improvement of 3.34 points, leading to the best single model with 60.90 mAP on the public object detection test set of Open Images.

• Abstract: Training with more data has always been the most stable and effective way of improving performance in deep learning era. As the largest object detection dataset so far, Open Images brings great opportunities and challenges for object detection in general and sophisticated scenarios. However, owing to its semi-automatic collecting and labeling pipeline to deal with the huge data scale, Open Images dataset suffers from label-related problems that objects may explicitly or implicitly have multiple labels and the label distribution is extremely imbalanced. In this work, we quantitatively analyze these label problems and provide a simple but effective solution. We design a concurrent softmax to handle the multi-label problems in object detection and propose a soft-sampling methods with hybrid training scheduler to deal with the label imbalance. Overall, our method yields a dramatic improvement of 3.34 points, leading to the best single model with 60.90 mAP on the public object detection test set of Open Images. And our ensembling result achieves 67.17 mAP, which is 4.29 points higher than the best result of Open Images public test 2018.

  We experimentally find three gaps between general and oriented object detection in semi-supervised learning. We propose a Multi-clue Consistency Learning (MCL) framework to bridge these gaps. Our proposed MCL can achieve state-of-the-art performance in the semi-supervised oriented object detection task.

  Surgical tool detection is essential for analyzing and evaluating minimally invasive surgery videos. Large image datasets with instance-level labels are often limited because of the burden of annotation. In this work, we propose to strike a balance between the extremely costly annotation burden and detection performance.

  We introduce a novel learning scheme named weakly semi-supervised instance segmentation (WSSIS) with point labels. We propose a method for WSSIS that can effectively leverage the budget-friendly point labels as a powerful weak supervision source. We conduct extensive experiments on COCO and BDD100K datasets, and the proposed method achieves promising results comparable to those of the fully-supervised model.
