SOD-YOLO: A lightweight small object detection framework. [PDF]
Currently, lightweight small object detection algorithms for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) often employ group convolutions, resulting in high Memory Access Cost (MAC) and rendering them unsuitable for edge devices that rely on parallel computing. To address this issue, we propose the SOD-YOLO model based on YOLOv7, which incorporates a DSDM-LFIM ...

Efficient Small Object Detection You Only Look Once: A Small Object Detection Algorithm for Aerial Images. [PDF]
Aerial images have distinct characteristics, such as varying target scales, complex backgrounds, severe occlusion, small targets, and dense distribution. As a result, object detection in aerial images faces challenges like difficulty in extracting small target information and poor integration of spatial and semantic data.

Augmentation for small object detection [PDF]
In recent years, object detection has experienced impressive progress. Despite these improvements, there is still a significant gap in the performance between the detection of small and large objects. We analyze the current state-of-the-art model, Mask-RCNN, on a challenging dataset, MS COCO.
