提出X光安检背景混叠增强法,提升违禁品检测性能。

BGM: Background Mixup for X-ray Prohibited Items Detection

  • 基于X光成像物理特性,混合背景纹理与材质差异
  • 在多个数据集上超越强基线,无需额外标注
  • 轻量级插件式设计,适合各类检测模型

当前基于数据的X光违禁品检测方法仍缺乏有效数据增强策略。现有自然图像增强忽略X光图像特性,而以往X光增强多聚焦前景违禁品,忽视具有信息量的背景线索。本文提出背景混叠(BGM),一种面向X光安检成像域的背景增强技术。BGM基于两大物理特性:1)X光透射成像中像素反映沿成像路径多材料复合信息;2)伪彩色与材料属性直接相关,有助于材料区分。在此基础上,BGM在纹理结构和材料变化两个维度混合背景区域,使模型更好捕捉复杂背景线索,提升对遮挡导致判别不平衡等域内挑战的应对能力。BGM与现有前景增强方法正交且完全兼容,可联合使用进一步提升性能。在多个X光安检基准测试中,BGM持续优于强基线,无需额外标注或显著训练开销。本工作首次探索了X光违禁品检测中的背景感知增强,提供了一种轻量、通用的即插即用解决方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Current data-driven approaches for X-ray prohibited items detection remain under-explored, particularly in the design of effective data augmentations. Existing natural image augmentations for reflected light imaging neglect the data characteristics of X-ray security images. Moreover, prior X-ray augmentation methods have predominantly focused on foreground prohibited items, overlooking informative background cues. In this paper, we propose Background Mixup (BGM), a background-based augmentation technique tailored for X-ray security imaging domain. Unlike conventional methods, BGM is founded on an in-depth analysis of physical properties including: 1) X-ray Transmission Imagery: Transmitted X-ray pixels represent composite information from multiple materials along the imaging path. 2) Material-based Pseudo-coloring: Pseudo-coloring in X-ray images correlates directly with material properties, aiding in material distinction. Building upon the above insights, BGM mixes background patches across regions on both 1) texture structure and 2) material variation, to benefit models from complicated background cues. This enhances the model's capability to handle domain-specific challenges such as occlusion-induced discriminative imbalance. Importantly, BGM is orthogonal and fully compatible with existing foreground-focused augmentation techniques, enabling joint use to further enhance detection performance. Extensive experiments on multiple X-ray security benchmarks show that BGM consistently surpasses strong baselines, without additional annotations or significant training overhead. This work pioneers the exploration of background-aware augmentation in X-ray prohibited items detection and provides a lightweight, plug-and-play solution with broad applicability.
