提出轻量级网络LCRNet,动态捕捉红外小目标上下文信息。
Learning Dynamic Local Context Representations for Infrared Small Target Detection
- 设计C2FBlock与DLC-Attention,自适应聚焦小目标特征
- 仅165万参数,在多个数据集上超越33种先进方法
- 适合低资源场景的红外小目标检测任务
红外小目标检测因复杂背景、低信杂比及目标尺寸形状多变而困难。现有方法中,小核卷积网络感受野有限易误报,变换器全局建模常将小目标误判为噪声导致漏检,混合模型又存在语义鸿沟与高复杂度问题。为此,本文提出LCRNet,通过三个组件实现动态局部上下文建模:(1) 受偏微分方程求解器启发的C2FBlock,高效捕获小目标信息;(2) 大核注意力DLC-Attention,动态构建上下文并减少冗余;(3) 基于大核分解的分层卷积算子HLKConv,保持稀疏性并缓解空洞卷积缺陷。模型仅含165万参数,却在多个数据集上对比33种先进方法,达到最新性能水平。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Infrared small target detection (ISTD) is challenging due to complex backgrounds, low signal-to-clutter ratios, and varying target sizes and shapes. Effective detection relies on capturing local contextual information at the appropriate scale. However, small-kernel CNNs have limited receptive fields, leading to false alarms, while transformer models, with global receptive fields, often treat small targets as noise, resulting in miss-detections. Hybrid models struggle to bridge the semantic gap between CNNs and transformers, causing high complexity.To address these challenges, we propose LCRNet, a novel method that learns dynamic local context representations for ISTD. The model consists of three components: (1) C2FBlock, inspired by PDE solvers, for efficient small target information capture; (2) DLC-Attention, a large-kernel attention mechanism that dynamically builds context and reduces feature redundancy; and (3) HLKConv, a hierarchical convolution operator based on large-kernel decomposition that preserves sparsity and mitigates the drawbacks of dilated convolutions. Despite its simplicity, with only 1.65M parameters, LCRNet achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance.Experiments on multiple datasets, comparing LCRNet with 33 SOTA methods, demonstrate its superior performance and efficiency.
