Abstract
En 中文
One of the most active areas in computer vision is object detection, which has made significant improvement in recent years. Current state-of-the-art object detection methods mostly adhere to the framework of the regions with convolutional neural network (R-CNN). However, they only take advantage of the local appearance features inside object bounding boxes. Since these approaches ignore the contextual information around the object proposals, the outcome of these detectors may generate a semantically incoherent interpretation of the input image. In this paper, we propose a novel object detection system which incorporates the local appearance and the contextual information. Specifically, the contextual information comprises the relationships among objects and the global scene based contextual feature generated by a convolutional neural network. The whole system is formulated as a fully connected conditional random field (CRF) defined on object proposals. Then the contextual constraints among object proposals are modeled as edges naturally. Furthermore, a fast mean field approximation method is utilized to infer in this CRF model efficiently. The experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm achieves a higher mean average precision (mAP) on PASCAL VOC 2007 datasets compared with the baseline algorithm Faster R-CNN.
