Few-Example Object Detection with Model Communication，Xuanyi Dong, Liang Zheng, Fan Ma, Yi Yang, Deyu Meng
亮点
- 本文仅仅通过每个类别3-4个bounding box标注即可实现物体检测，并与其它使用大量training examples的方法性能可比
- 主要方法是：multi-modal learning (多模型同时训练) ＋ self-paced learning (curriculum learning)
相关工作
这里介绍几个比较容易混淆的概念，以及与他们相关的方法
- 弱监督物体检测：数据集的标签是不可靠的，如（x，y），y对于x的标记是不可靠的。这里的不可靠可以是标记不正确，多种标记，标记不充分，局部标记等。
- 标签是图像级别的类别标签[7][8][9][10][11][18][30][31][32][33][34]
- 半监督物体检测：半监督学习使用大量的未标记数据，以及同时使用标记数据，来进行模式识别工作。
- 一些训练样本只有类别标签，另外一些样本有详细的物体框和类别标注[4][5][6]
- 需要大量标注 (e.g., 50% of the full annotations)
- 每个类别只有几个物体框标注（Few-Example Object Detection with Model Communication)[12][35]
- 和few-shot learning 的区别：是否使用未标注数据学习
- 通过视频挖掘位置标注，此类方法主要针对会移动的物体[2][3][29][1]

方法
Basic detector: Faster RCNN & RFCN
Object proposal method: selective search & edge boxes
Annotations: when we randomly annotate approximately four images for each class, an image may contain several objects, and we annotate all the object bounding boxes.
参数更新：
更新vj：对上述损失函数进行求导，可以得到vj的解
对同一张图像i同一个模型j，如果有多个样本使得vj＝1，则只选择使Lc最小的那个样本置为1，其他置为0。gamma促使模型之间共享信息，因为vj为1时，阈值变大，图像更容易被选择到。
更新wj：与其它文章方法相同
更新yuj：为更新yuj我们需要从一组bounding box找到满足以下条件的解，
很难直接找到最优化的解。文中采用的方案是：将所有模型预测出的结果输入nms，并通过阈值只保留分数高的结果，余下的组成yuj。
去除难例：we employ a modified NMS (intersection/max(area1,area2)) to filter out the nested boxes, which usually occurs when there are multiple overlapping objects. If there are too many boxes (≥ 4) for one specific class or too many classes (≥ 4) in the image, this image will be removed. Images in which no reliable pseudo objects are found are filtered out.
实验
Compared with the-state-of-the-art (4.2 images per class is annotated)
- VOC 2007: -1.1mAP, correct localization +0.9% compared with [21]
- VOC 2012: -2.5mAP compared with [21], correct localization +9.8%
- ILSVRC 2013: -2.4mAP compared with [21]
- COCO 2014: +1.3 mAP compared with [22]

Ablation study
- VOC 2007: +4.1 mAP compared with model ensemble
- k number of labeled images per class; w/ image labels: image-level supervision incorporated
不足
虽然localization有一定准确率，但是难例图片漏检比较多（也就是说few example classification效果不好）。
