• Abstract: Ensembling is a method that aims to maximize the detection performance by fusing individual detectors. While rarely mentioned in deep-learning articles applied to remote sensing, ensembling methods have been widely used to achieve high scores in recent data science com-petitions, such as Kaggle. The few remote sensing articles mentioning ensembling mainly focus on mid resolution images and earth observation applications such as land use classification, but never on Very High Resolution (VHR) images for defense-related applications or object detection.This study aims at reviewing the most relevant ensembling techniques to be used for object detection on very high resolution imagery and shows an example of the value of such techniques on a relevant operational use-case (vehicle detection in desert areas).

Our findings indicate that deep learning approaches perform better than traditional image processing-based approaches.

We find that enhanced model architectures, larger networks, well-crafted modules, and judicious data augmentation strategies collectively enhance the robustness of aerial object detection models.

  We propose an efficient Cascaded Zoom-in (CZ) detector that re-purposes the detector itself for density-guided training and inference. During training, density crops are located, labeled as a new class, and employed to augment the training dataset. This approach is easily integrated into any detector, and creates no significant change in the standard detection process.
