热红外(TIR)技术通过传感器探测物体发射的红外辐射,在多个领域广泛应用。尽管基于TIR图像的目标检测方法取得进展,但多数传统方法难以有效提取和融合局部-全局信息,影响对TIR特征的关注度。本文提出一种新型高效热红外目标检测框架CRT-YOLO,基于集中式特征调节机制,实现对TIR信息的全局范围交互。模型集成高效的多尺度注意力(EMA)模块,可精准捕捉长程依赖关系,同时计算开销极低;并引入集中式特征金字塔(CFP)网络,实现对TIR特征的全局调控。在两个基准数据集上的大量实验表明,CRT-YOLO显著优于现有方法。消融实验进一步验证了所提模块的有效性,证明该方法对推动热红外目标检测领域发展的潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Thermal Infrared (TIR) technology involves the use of sensors to detect and measure infrared radiation emitted by objects, and it is widely utilized across a broad spectrum of applications. The advancements in object detection methods utilizing TIR images have sparked significant research interest. However, most traditional methods lack the capability to effectively extract and fuse local-global information, which is crucial for TIR-domain feature attention. In this study, we present a novel and efficient thermal infrared object detection framework, known as CRT-YOLO, that is based on centralized feature regulation, enabling the establishment of global-range interaction on TIR information. Our proposed model integrates efficient multi-scale attention (EMA) modules, which adeptly capture long-range dependencies while incurring minimal computational overhead. Additionally, it leverages the Centralized Feature Pyramid (CFP) network, which offers global regulation of TIR features. Extensive experiments conducted on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that our CRT-YOLO model significantly outperforms conventional methods for TIR image object detection. Furthermore, the ablation study provides compelling evidence of the effectiveness of our proposed modules, reinforcing the potential impact of our approach on advancing the field of thermal infrared object detection.
