Receptive Field Block Net for Accurate and Fast Object Detection

简介

本文在SSD基础上提出了RFB Module,利用神经科学的先验知识来解释这种效果提升。本质上是设计一种新的结构来提升感受野,并表明了人类视网膜的感受野有一个特点,离视线中心越远,其感受野是越大的,越靠近视线中间,感受野越小。基于此,本文提出的RFB Module就是来模拟人类这种视觉特点的。

RFB Module

结构如下图所示。

为什么要用空洞卷积呢?

首先要提高感受野,直观的想法就是要么加深层数,要么使用更大的卷积核,要么就是卷积之前使用pooling。加深层数网络参数就会变多,没法完成轻量级的任务;更大的卷积核一样参数也会变多;pooling虽然不会增加参数,但是会使信息损失,不利于后面层的信息传递。所以作者这里很自然的想到用空洞卷积,既不增加参数量,又能够提高感受野。

为什么要用这种多分支结构呢?

这是为了捕捉不同感受野的信息,如前面提到的,人类视野的特点就是距视野中心距离不同感受野不同,所以使用多分支结构,每个分支捕捉一种感受野,最后通过concat来融合感受野信息,就能达到模拟人类视觉的效果了。作者这里也给了一张图来说明。

为什么要提出两种版本的RFB呢?

左边的结构是原始的RFB,右边的结构相比RFB把3×3的conv变成了两个1×3和3×1的分支,一是减少了参数量,二是增加了更小的感受野,这样也是在模拟人类视觉系统,捕捉更小的感受野。

网络结构

整体网络结构如下所示,很好理解。

前面就是vgg19,然后从中间的层分出6个预测分支,比较好理解没啥记的。
