开放集目标检测(OSOD)对自动驾驶至关重要,要求感知系统能识别并定位已知及未见过的物体。现有方法通常需大量重训练以学习物体性(objectness),即边界框包含有效物体的概率。本文提出NAN-SPOT框架,假设现成检测器已隐含物体性线索,通过引入负样本感知范数(Negative-Aware Norm, NAN)估算物体性,仅需在数百张图像上训练几分钟。为全面评估,构建了扩展版COCO-Mixed数据集——COCO-Open,将未知物体标注从433增加至1853个,是目前最详尽的OSOD数据集。实验表明,NAN-SPOT在未知物体检测上表现优于需大量训练的方法,且不影响已知物体性能。该框架高效稳健,推动自动驾驶中开放世界感知发展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Open-Set Object Detection (OSOD) is crucial for autonomous driving, where perception systems must recognize and localize both known and previously unseen objects in complex, dynamic environments. While recent approaches deliver promising results, they often require retraining the detector extensively to learn objectness, which describes the likelihood that a bounding box tightly encloses a valid object, regardless of whether its category was learned during training. Deviating from existing work, we hypothesize that standard off-the-shelf detectors may already contain helpful cues for objectness, owing to their training on numerous and diverse known categories. Building on this idea, we propose NAN-SPOT, a training-light framework that does not require to retrain the base object detector and estimates objectness by leveraging a hidden layer metric called Negative-Aware Norm (NAN), requiring only minutes of training on just hundreds of images. To support comprehensive evaluation, we introduce COCO-Open, an expanded version of the existing COCO-Mixed dataset, increasing unknown object annotations from 433 to 1853, making it the most exhaustively labeled dataset for OSOD to the best of our knowledge. Experimental results demonstrate that NAN-SPOT achieves even better performance on unknown object detection than methods requiring heavy training, without compromising performance on known objects. This efficiency and robustness make NAN-SPOT a promising step towards open-world perception in autonomous driving.
