Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Colonoscopy is a widely used technique for colon screening and polyp lesions diagnosis. Nevertheless, manual screening using colonoscopy suffers from a substantial miss rate of polyps and is an overwhelming burden for endoscopists. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) for polyp detection has the potential to reduce human error and human burden. However, current polyp detection methods based on object detection framework need many handcrafted pre-processing and post-processing operations or user guidance that require domain-specific knowledge. Methods: In this paper, we propose a convolution in transformer (COTR) network for end-to-end polyp detection. Motivated by the detection transformer (DETR), COTR is constituted by a CNN for feature extraction, transformer encoder layers interleaved with convolutional layers for feature encoding and recalibration, transformer decoder layers for object querying, and a feed-forward network for detection prediction. Considering the slow convergence of DETR, COTR embeds convolution layers into transformer encoder for feature reconstruction and convergence acceleration. Results: Experimental results on two public polyp datasets show that COTR achieved 91.49% precision, 82.69% sensitivity, and 86.87% F1-score on the ETIS-LARIB, and 91.67% precision, 93.54% sensitivity, and 92.60% F1-score on the CVC-ColonDB. Conclusion: This study proposed an end to end detection method based on detection transformer for colorectal polyp detection. Experimental results on ETIS-LARIB and CVC-ColonDB dataset demonstrated that the proposed model achieved comparable performance against state-of-the-art methods.

Temporal action detection (TAD) aims to determine the semantic label and the boundaries of every action instance in an untrimmed video. It is a fundamental and challenging task in video understanding and significant progress has been made. Previous methods involve multiple stages or networks and hand-designed rules or operations, which fall short in efficiency and flexibility. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end framework for TAD upon Transformer, termed textit{TadTR}, which maps a set of learnable embeddings to action instances in parallel. TadTR is able to adaptively extract temporal context information required for making action predictions, by selectively attending to a sparse set of snippets in a video. As a result, it simplifies the pipeline of TAD and requires lower computation cost than previous detectors, while preserving remarkable detection performance. TadTR achieves state-of-the-art performance on HACS Segments (+3.35% average mAP). As a single-network detector, TadTR runs 10$times$ faster than its comparable competitor. It outperforms existing single-network detectors by a large margin on THUMOS14 (+5.0% average mAP) and ActivityNet (+7.53% average mAP). When combined with other detectors, it reports 54.1% mAP at IoU=0.5 on THUMOS14, and 34.55% average mAP on ActivityNet-1.3. Our code will be released at url{https://github.com/xlliu7/TadTR}.
We propose 3DETR, an end-to-end Transformer based object detection model for 3D point clouds. Compared to existing detection methods that employ a number of 3D-specific inductive biases, 3DETR requires minimal modifications to the vanilla Transformer block. Specifically, we find that a standard Transformer with non-parametric queries and Fourier positional embeddings is competitive with specialized architectures that employ libraries of 3D-specific operators with hand-tuned hyperparameters. Nevertheless, 3DETR is conceptually simple and easy to implement, enabling further improvements by incorporating 3D domain knowledge. Through extensive experiments, we show 3DETR outperforms the well-established and highly optimized VoteNet baselines on the challenging ScanNetV2 dataset by 9.5%. Furthermore, we show 3DETR is applicable to 3D tasks beyond detection, and can serve as a building block for future research.
We propose HOI Transformer to tackle human object interaction (HOI) detection in an end-to-end manner. Current approaches either decouple HOI task into separated stages of object detection and interaction classification or introduce surrogate interaction problem. In contrast, our method, named HOI Transformer, streamlines the HOI pipeline by eliminating the need for many hand-designed components. HOI Transformer reasons about the relations of objects and humans from global image context and directly predicts HOI instances in parallel. A quintuple matching loss is introduced to force HOI predictions in a unified way. Our method is conceptually much simpler and demonstrates improved accuracy. Without bells and whistles, HOI Transformer achieves $26.61% $ $ AP $ on HICO-DET and $52.9%$ $AP_{role}$ on V-COCO, surpassing previous methods with the advantage of being much simpler. We hope our approach will serve as a simple and effective alternative for HOI tasks. Code is available at https://github.com/bbepoch/HoiTransformer .
Mainstream object detectors based on the fully convolutional network has achieved impressive performance. While most of them still need a hand-designed non-maximum suppression (NMS) post-processing, which impedes fully end-to-end training. In this paper, we give the analysis of discarding NMS, where the results reveal that a proper label assignment plays a crucial role. To this end, for fully convolutional detectors, we introduce a Prediction-aware One-To-One (POTO) label assignment for classification to enable end-to-end detection, which obtains comparable performance with NMS. Besides, a simple 3D Max Filtering (3DMF) is proposed to utilize the multi-scale features and improve the discriminability of convolutions in the local region. With these techniques, our end-to-end framework achieves competitive performance against many state-of-the-art detectors with NMS on COCO and CrowdHuman datasets. The code is available at https://github.com/Megvii-BaseDetection/DeFCN .
Panoptic segmentation, which needs to assign a category label to each pixel and segment each object instance simultaneously, is a challenging topic. Traditionally, the existing approaches utilize two independent models without sharing features, which makes the pipeline inefficient to implement. In addition, a heuristic method is usually employed to merge the results. However, the overlapping relationship between object instances is difficult to determine without sufficient context information during the merging process. To address the problems, we propose a novel end-to-end network for panoptic segmentation, which can efficiently and effectively predict both the instance and stuff segmentation in a single network. Moreover, we introduce a novel spatial ranking module to deal with the occlusion problem between the predicted instances. Extensive experiments have been done to validate the performance of our proposed method and promising results have been achieved on the COCO Panoptic benchmark.
