Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Aggregating temporal features from other frames is verified to be very effective for video object detection to overcome the challenges in still images, such as occlusion, motion blur, and rare pose. Currently, proposal-level feature aggregation dominates this direction. However, there are two main problems for the holistic proposal-level feature aggregation. First, the object proposals generated by the region proposal network ignore the useful context information around the object which is proved to be helpful for object classification. Second, the traditional proposal-level feature aggregation regards the proposal as a whole without considering the important object structure information, which makes the similarity comparison between two proposals less effective when occlusion or pose misalignment occurs on proposal objects. To deal with these problems, we propose the Context and Structure Mining Network to better aggregate features for video object detection. In our method, we first encode the spatial-temporal context information into object features in a global manner, which can benefit the object classification. In addition, the holistic proposal is divided into several patches to capture the structure information of the object, and cross patch matching is conducted to alleviate the pose misalignment between objects in target and support proposals. Moreover, an importance weight is learned for each target proposal patch to indicate how informative this patch is for the final feature aggregation, by which the occluded patches can be neglected. This enables the aggregation module to leverage the most important and informative patches to obtain the final feature aggregation. The proposed framework outperforms all the latest state-of-the-art methods on the ImageNet VID dataset with a large margin.
