- Abstract: While humans naturally identify novel objects and understand their relationships, deep learning-based object detectors struggle to detect and relate objects that are not observed during training. To overcome this issue, Open World Object Detection(OWOD) has been introduced to enable models to detect unknown objects in open-world scenarios. However, OWOD methods fail to capture the fine-grained relationships between detected objects, which are crucial for comprehensive scene understanding and applications such as class discovery and tracking. In this paper, we propose a method to train an object detector that can both detect novel objects and extract semantically rich features in open-world conditions by leveraging the knowledge of Vision Foundation Models(VFM). We first utilize the semantic masks from the Segment Anything Model to supervise the box regression of unknown objects, ensuring accurate localization. By transferring the instance-wise similarities obtained from the VFM features to the detector's instance embeddings, our method then learns a semantically rich feature space of these embeddings. Extensive experiments show that our method learns a robust and generalizable feature space, outperforming other OWOD-based feature extraction methods. Additionally, we demonstrate that the enhanced feature from our model increases the detector's applicability to tasks such as open-world tracking.

Few-shot object detection (FSOD) identifies objects from extremely few annotated samples.
Most existing FSOD methods, recently, apply the two-stage learning paradigm, which transfers the knowledge learned from abundant base classes to assist the few-shot detectors by learning the global features.
We propose an Extensible Co-Existing Attention (ECEA) module to enable the model to infer the global object according to the local parts.
