Modern CNN-based object detectors rely on bounding box regression and non-maximum suppression to localize objects. While the probabilities for class labels naturally reflect classification confidence, localization confidence is absent. This makes properly localized bounding boxes degenerate during iterative regression or even suppressed during NMS. In the paper we propose IoU-Net learning to predict the IoU between each detected bounding box and the matched ground-truth. The network acquires this confidence of localization, which improves the NMS procedure by preserving accurately localized bounding boxes. Furthermore, an optimization-based bounding box refinement method is proposed, where the predicted IoU is formulated as the objective. Extensive experiments on the MS-COCO dataset show the effectiveness of IoU-Net, as well as its compatibility with and adaptivity to several state-of-the-art object detectors.

Confidence-aware learning is proven as an effective solution to prevent networks becoming overconfident. We present a confidence-aware camouflaged object detection framework using dynamic supervision to produce both accurate camouflage map and meanin
gful confidence representing model awareness about the current prediction. A camouflaged object detection network is designed to produce our camouflage prediction. Then, we concatenate it with the input image and feed it to the confidence estimation network to produce an one channel confidence map.We generate dynamic supervision for the confidence estimation network, representing the agreement of camouflage prediction with the ground truth camouflage map. With the produced confidence map, we introduce confidence-aware learning with the confidence map as guidance to pay more attention to the hard/low-confidence pixels in the loss function. We claim that, once trained, our confidence estimation network can evaluate pixel-wise accuracy of the prediction without relying on the ground truth camouflage map. Extensive results on four camouflaged object detection testing datasets illustrate the superior performance of the proposed model in explaining the camouflage prediction.
Knowledge distillation (KD) has witnessed its powerful ability in learning compact models in deep learning field, but it is still limited in distilling localization information for object detection. Existing KD methods for object detection mainly foc
us on mimicking deep features between teacher model and student model, which not only is restricted by specific model architectures, but also cannot distill localization ambiguity. In this paper, we first propose localization distillation (LD) for object detection. In particular, our LD can be formulated as standard KD by adopting the general localization representation of bounding box. Our LD is very flexible, and is applicable to distill localization ambiguity for arbitrary architecture of teacher model and student model. Moreover, it is interesting to find that Self-LD, i.e., distilling teacher model itself, can further boost state-of-the-art performance. Second, we suggest a teacher assistant (TA) strategy to fill the possible gap between teacher model and student model, by which the distillation effectiveness can be guaranteed even the selected teacher model is not optimal. On benchmark datasets PASCAL VOC and MS COCO, our LD can consistently improve the performance for student detectors, and also boosts state-of-the-art detectors notably.

Large-scale object detection datasets (e.g., MS-COCO) try to define the ground truth bounding boxes as clear as possible. However, we observe that ambiguities are still introduced when labeling the bounding boxes. In this paper, we propose a novel bo
unding box regression loss for learning bounding box transformation and localization variance together. Our loss greatly improves the localization accuracies of various architectures with nearly no additional computation. The learned localization variance allows us to merge neighboring bounding boxes during non-maximum suppression (NMS), which further improves the localization performance. On MS-COCO, we boost the Average Precision (AP) of VGG-16 Faster R-CNN from 23.6% to 29.1%. More importantly, for ResNet-50-FPN Mask R-CNN, our method improves the AP and AP90 by 1.8% and 6.2% respectively, which significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art bounding box refinement methods.

Weakly-Supervised Object Detection (WSOD) and Localization (WSOL), i.e., detecting multiple and single instances with bounding boxes in an image using image-level labels, are long-standing and challenging tasks in the CV community. With the success o
f deep neural networks in object detection, both WSOD and WSOL have received unprecedented attention. Hundreds of WSOD and WSOL methods and numerous techniques have been proposed in the deep learning era. To this end, in this paper, we consider WSOL is a sub-task of WSOD and provide a comprehensive survey of the recent achievements of WSOD. Specifically, we firstly describe the formulation and setting of the WSOD, including the background, challenges, basic framework. Meanwhile, we summarize and analyze all advanced techniques and training tricks for improving detection performance. Then, we introduce the widely-used datasets and evaluation metrics of WSOD. Lastly, we discuss the future directions of WSOD. We believe that these summaries can help pave a way for future research on WSOD and WSOL.
Current object detection frameworks mainly rely on bounding box regression to localize objects. Despite the remarkable progress in recent years, the precision of bounding box regression remains unsatisfactory, hence limiting performance in object det
ection. We observe that precise localization requires careful placement of each side of the bounding box. However, the mainstream approach, which focuses on predicting centers and sizes, is not the most effective way to accomplish this task, especially when there exists displacements with large variance between the anchors and the targets. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach, named as Side-Aware Boundary Localization (SABL), where each side of the bounding box is respectively localized with a dedicated network branch. To tackle the difficulty of precise localization in the presence of displacements with large variance, we further propose a two-step localization scheme, which first predicts a range of movement through bucket prediction and then pinpoints the precise position within the predicted bucket. We test the proposed method on both two-stage and single-stage detection frameworks. Replacing the standard bounding box regression branch with the proposed design leads to significant improvements on Faster R-CNN, RetinaNet, and Cascade R-CNN, by 3.0%, 1.7%, and 0.9%, respectively.
