Small object detection has long been a difficult and hot topic in computer vision. In order to promote the development of this field, I establish this repository to organize the papers related to small object detection. Any latest papers related to small object detection will be updated in this repository.
Chinese version: https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/426047353
- 2021/12/24 add one Multi-scale feature learning paper: QueryDet: Cascaded Sparse Query for Accelerating High-Resolution Small Object Detection, arxiv 2021. Good paper, key contribution is the fast detection speed.
- 2021/12/12 paper: Addressing Scale Imbalance for Small Object Detection with Dense Detector, Neurocomputing 2021. Bad paper, so I decide not to add it to this repo.
- 2021/11/14
- add one Context-based paper: Realize your surroundings: Exploiting context information for small object detection. Good paper, recommend to read.
- add one Context-based paper: Intrinsic Relationship Reasoning for Small Object Detection.
- 2021/11/4
- add one Context-based paper: Structure Inference Net.
- add one Special design in detection pipeline paper: Dot Distance.
- 2021/11/2
- create the repository.
