• Abstract: Query-based methods have garnered significant attention in object detection since the advent of DETR, the pioneering query-based detector. However, these methods face challenges like slow convergence and suboptimal performance. Notably, self-attention in object detection often hampers convergence due to its global focus. To address these issues, we propose FoLR, a transformer-like architecture with only decoders. We improve the self-attention by isolating connections between irrelevant objects that makes it focus on local regions but not global regions. We also design the adaptive sampling method to extract effective features based on queries' local regions from feature maps. Additionally, we employ a look-back strategy for decoders to retain previous information, followed by the Feature Mixer module to fuse features and queries. Experimental results demonstrate FoLR's state-of-the-art performance in query-based detectors, excelling in convergence speed and computational efficiency.

  A convolutional neural network (CNN) for camouflaged object detection tends to activate local discriminative regions while ignoring complete object extent. In this paper, we argue that partial activation is caused by the intrinsic characteristics of CNN. In order to obtain feature maps that could activate full object extent, a novel framework termed Cross-Model Detail Querying network (DQnet) is proposed.
