• Abstract summary: PrObeD consists of an encoder-decoder architecture, where the encoder network generates an image-dependent signal templates to encrypt the input images. We propose a wrapper based on proactive schemes, PrObeD, which enhances the performance of these object detectors by learning a signal. Our experiments on MS-COCO, CAMO, COD$10$K, and NC$4$K datasets show improvement over different detectors after applying PrObeD.

• Abstract: Previous research in $2D$ object detection focuses on various tasks, including detecting objects in generic and camouflaged images. These works are regarded as passive works for object detection as they take the input image as is. However, convergence to global minima is not guaranteed to be optimal in neural networks; therefore, we argue that the trained weights in the object detector are not optimal. To rectify this problem, we propose a wrapper based on proactive schemes, PrObeD, which enhances the performance of these object detectors by learning a signal. PrObeD consists of an encoder-decoder architecture, where the encoder network generates an image-dependent signal termed templates to encrypt the input images, and the decoder recovers this template from the encrypted images. We propose that learning the optimum template results in an object detector with an improved detection performance. The template acts as a mask to the input images to highlight semantics useful for the object detector. Finetuning the object detector with these encrypted images enhances the detection performance for both generic and camouflaged. Our experiments on MS-COCO, CAMO, COD$10$K, and NC$4$K datasets show improvement over different detectors after applying PrObeD.

  We propose a novel learned keypoint detection method to increase the number of correct matches for the task of non-rigid image correspondence. We train an end-to-end convolutional neural network (CNN) to find keypoint locations that are more appropriate to the considered descriptor. Experiments demonstrate that our method enhances the Mean Matching Accuracy of numerous descriptors when used in conjunction with our detection method. We also apply our method on the complex real-world task object retrieval where our detector performs on par with the finest keypoint detectors currently available for this task.

  Pointly Supervised Object Detection (PSOD) has attracted considerable interests due to its lower labeling cost as compared to box-level supervised object detection. We make the first attempt to achieve RS object detection with single point supervision, and propose a PSOD method tailored for RS images. Our method can achieve significantly better performance as compared to state-of-the-art image-level and point-level supervised detection methods, and reduce the performance gap between PSOD and box-level supervised object detection.

In an experimental comparison study of D-Unet and state-of-the-art methods, D-Unet outperformed the other methods in image-level and pixel-level detection.
