Abstract

In recent years, the performance of object detection algorithm has been improved continuously, and it has become an important direction in the field of computer vision. All the work in this paper will be based on a two-stage object detection algorithm. First, the dilated convolution network is added to the backbone network to form the Deep_Dilated Convolution Network (D_dNet), which improves the resolution of the feature map and the size of the receptive field. In addition, in order to obtain higher accuracy, the feature map of pretraining is compressed and a light-weight network is established. Finally, to further optimize the proposed two network models, this paper introduces the transfer learning into the pretraining. The whole experiment is evaluated based on MSCOCO dataset. Experiments show that the accuracy of the proposed model is improved by 1.3 to 2.2% points.
