伪装目标检测(COD)旨在识别与背景高度融合的目标。研究表明,极化线索的光学特性对提升检测效果至关重要。然而,现有极化方法多依赖复杂的视觉编码器和融合机制,导致模型复杂度高、计算开销大,且未能充分挖掘极化信息如何显式指导层级RGB表征学习。为此,本文提出CPGNet,一种非对称的RGB-极化框架,引入条件极化引导机制,显式调控RGB特征学习。具体而言,设计轻量级极化交互模块,联合建模互补线索并统一生成可靠极化引导。不同于传统特征融合,该条件引导机制利用极化先验动态调制RGB特征,使网络聚焦于伪装目标与背景间的细微差异。此外,提出极化边缘引导的频域精炼策略,在极化约束下增强高频成分,有效打破伪装模式。最后,设计迭代反馈解码器,实现从粗到细的特征校准,逐步优化伪装预测。在多个极化数据集上的多任务实验及非极化数据集评估表明,CPGNet持续优于当前最先进方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Camouflaged object detection (COD) aims to identify targets that are highly blended with their backgrounds. Recent works have shown that the optical characteristics of polarization cues play a significant role in improving camouflaged object detection. However, most existing polarization-based approaches depend on complex visual encoders and fusion mechanisms, leading to increased model complexity and computational overhead, while failing to fully explore how polarization can explicitly guide hierarchical RGB representation learning. To address these limitations, we propose CPGNet, an asymmetric RGB-polarization framework that introduces a conditional polarization guidance mechanism to explicitly regulate RGB feature learning for camouflaged object detection. Specifically, we design a lightweight polarization interaction module that jointly models these complementary cues and generates reliable polarization guidance in a unified manner. Unlike conventional feature fusion strategies, the proposed conditional guidance mechanism dynamically modulates RGB features using polarization priors, enabling the network to focus on subtle discrepancies between camouflaged objects and their backgrounds. Furthermore, we introduce a polarization edge-guided frequency refinement strategy that enhances high-frequency components under polarization constraints, effectively breaking camouflage patterns. Finally, we develop an iterative feedback decoder to perform coarse-to-fine feature calibration and progressively refine camouflage prediction. Extensive experiments on polarization datasets across multiple tasks, along with evaluations on non-polarization datasets, demonstrate that CPGNet consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
