• Authors: Yuheng Shi, Naiyan Wang, Xiaojie Guo
• Abstract summary: Video object detection (VID) is challenging because of the high variation of object appearance and the diverse deterioration in some frames. This work proposes a simple yet effective strategy to address the concerns, which spends marginal overheads with significant gains in accuracy. Our YOLOX-based model can achieve promising performance (e.g., 87.5% AP50 at over 30 FPS on the ImageNet VID dataset on a single 2080Ti GPU)

• Abstract: Video object detection (VID) is challenging because of the high variation of object appearance as well as the diverse deterioration in some frames. On the positive side, the detection in a certain frame of a video, compared with in a still image, can draw support from other frames. Hence, how to aggregate features across different frames is pivotal to the VID problem. Most of existing aggregation algorithms are customized for two-stage detectors. But, the detectors in this category are usually computationally expensive due to the two-stage nature. This work proposes a simple yet effective strategy to address the above concerns, which spends marginal overheads with significant gains in accuracy. Concretely, different from the traditional two-stage pipeline, we advocate putting the region-level selection after the one-stage detection to avoid processing massive low-quality candidates. Besides, a novel module is constructed to evaluate the relationship between a target frame and its reference ones, and guide the aggregation. Extensive experiments and ablation studies are conducted to verify the efficacy of our design, and reveal its superiority over other state-of-the-art VID approaches in both effectiveness and efficiency. Our YOLOX-based model can achieve promising performance (e.g., 87.5\% AP50 at over 30 FPS on the ImageNet VID dataset on a single 2080Ti GPU), making it attractive for large-scale or real-time applications. The implementation is simple, the demo code and models have been made available at https://github.com/YuHengsss/YOLOV .

  Video object detection (VOD) needs to concern the high across-frame variation in object appearance, and the diverse deterioration in some frames. Most of contemporary aggregation methods are tailored for two-stage detectors, suffering from high computational costs. This study invents a very simple yet potent strategy of feature selection and aggregation, gaining significant accuracy at marginal computational expense.
