针对海洋物种检测的弱标注难题,提出分步重排序与分数融合方案,提升小样本下的检测精度。
Decoupled Pipeline with Proposal Reranking and Score Fusion for Positive-Unlabeled Marine Species Detection

- 用冻结的YOLOv8x生成候选框,结合全局与局部推理及边缘过滤
- 通过LoRA微调DINOv3分类器并加权融合检测与分类置信度进行重排序
- 强调使用代理数据验证模型,避免依赖训练集指标,适合小样本弱监督场景
FathomNetCLEF 2026竞赛在正例-未标记(positive-unlabeled)设置下,结合水下目标检测与细粒度海洋物种分类任务。训练标签稀疏,测试集分布与训练图像存在显著偏移,带来标注不全与源域偏移双重挑战。我们提出DS@GT ARC的多阶段系统,在仅使用竞赛提供数据的前提下完成建模。最终私榜模型采用冻结的Megalodon YOLOv8x作为无类别提案生成器,融合全局与切片推理并应用切片边缘过滤;使用LoRA微调的DINOv3 ViT-H对扩展候选区域进行分类,并通过检测器与分类器置信度的加权几何融合进行预测重排序。该系统在102支队伍中位列第12。一个相关变体引入受TTN启发的轻量级有效性头作为局部重排序信号,提升了公榜与代理评估表现,但略微降低私榜成绩。实验表明,基于训练集的验证和仅检测器指标不足以指导模型选择,必须依赖代理数据验证、结合排行榜反馈与针对性消融实验。关键结论是:保留提案召回率、避免过度过滤、优化下游排序比微调检测器或直接训练于噪声伪标签更有效。代码开源:https://github.com/dsgt-arc/fathomnetclef-2026。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The FathomNetCLEF 2026 competition combines underwater object detection and fine-grained marine species classification under a positive-unlabeled evaluation setting. The provided training labels are sparse, while the hidden test set is out-of-distribution relative to the training imagery, creating both annotation incompleteness and source-shift challenges. We describe DS@GT ARC's multi-stage system developed for this setting while keeping model training restricted to the data provided by the competition. The final private-leaderboard model uses a frozen Megalodon YOLOv8x detector as a class-agnostic proposal generator, combines global and tiled inference with tile-edge filtering, classifies expanded proposal crops with a LoRA-finetuned DINOv3 ViT-H classifier, and ranks predictions using weighted geometric fusion of detector and classifier confidence. This system placed 12th out of 102 teams. A closely related variant added a locally trained TTN-inspired validity head as a light reranking signal, improving public-leaderboard and proxy-evaluation performance but slightly reducing private-leaderboard performance. Across experiments, the strongest lesson was that train-derived validation and detector-only metrics were not reliable enough for model selection. Instead, we used proxy datasets only for validation and comparison, and combined those signals with leaderboard feedback and targeted ablations. These experiments showed that reserving proposal recall, avoiding over-aggressive filtering, and improving downstream ranking were more effective than fine-tuning the detector or directly training on noisy pseudo-labels.
