Abstract

En 中文

Arbitrary-oriented object detection remains a pivotal research focus due to its practical significance and inherent challenges. Existing methods often extend frameworks and sampling strategies designed for horizontal object detectors, which struggle to handle the arbitrary orientations, high aspect ratios, and diverse scales of oriented objects. To overcome these limitations, we propose a novel and efficient method for arbitrary-oriented object detection. This approach dynamically assigns prediction layers by object pixel area, then leverages wavelet transform-based energy weighting for bottom-up sample reassignment, optimizing feature representation for oriented targets. In addition, a robust framework integrates heatmap keypoint prediction on feature maps of a quarter-sized image, along with sparse predictions on other scales. By querying small-object regions within deep feature maps, a progressive top-down feature fusion strategy further enhances the perception of fine-grained details. Extensive evaluations on four benchmark datasets demonstrate the method’s substantial improvements in detection performance, establishing its potential for broader applications in oriented object detection.
