通过评估图像对整体检测精度的边际贡献,动态筛选高质量训练数据。

Online Data Curation for Object Detection via Marginal Contributions to Dataset-level Average Precision

  • 基于预测质量估计每张图对平均精度的边际影响,实现动态选样。
  • 在COCO数据集上,多个检测器均获得一致精度提升,最高增益达+1.8% AP。
  • 适用于多种架构,对低质量数据鲁棒,可与知识蒸馏协同使用。

高质量数据已成为规模定律下进步的主要驱动力,经过筛选的数据集常以更低成本超越更大但未经过滤的数据集。在线数据筛选通过根据模型状态动态选择训练样本扩展这一思想。尽管在分类和多模态学习中表现良好,现有在线采样策略因结构复杂性和领域差异较少应用于目标检测。本文提出针对目标检测的在线数据筛选方法DetGain,基于预测质量估计每张图像对数据集级平均精度(AP)的边际扰动。通过建模全局得分分布,DetGain高效估算全局AP变化,并计算教师-学生贡献差距,以在每次迭代中选择信息量丰富的样本。该方法架构无关且侵入性极低,可无缝集成至多种目标检测框架。在多个代表性检测器上的COCO实验表明,精度持续提升,最高达+1.8% AP。DetGain在低质量数据下也表现出强鲁棒性,且能有效结合知识蒸馏进一步提升性能,展现出作为通用、互补的数据高效检测策略的巨大潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

High-quality data has become a primary driver of progress under scale laws, with curated datasets often outperforming much larger unfiltered ones at lower cost. Online data curation extends this idea by dynamically selecting training samples based on the model's evolving state. While effective in classification and multimodal learning, existing online sampling strategies rarely extend to object detection because of its structural complexity and domain gaps. We introduce DetGain, an online data curation method specifically for object detection that estimates the marginal perturbation of each image to dataset-level Average Precision (AP) based on its prediction quality. By modeling global score distributions, DetGain efficiently estimates the global AP change and computes teacher-student contribution gaps to select informative samples at each iteration. The method is architecture-agnostic and minimally intrusive, enabling straightforward integration into diverse object detection architectures. Experiments on the COCO dataset with multiple representative detectors show consistent improvements in accuracy. DetGain also demonstrates strong robustness under low-quality data and can be effectively combined with knowledge distillation techniques to further enhance performance, highlighting its potential as a general and complementary strategy for data-efficient object detection.
