ShuffleNet: An Extremely Efficient Convolutional Neural Network for Mobile Devices
We introduce an extremely computation-efficient CNN architecture named
ShuffleNet, which is designed specially for mobile devices with very limited
computing power (e.g., 10-150 MFLOPs). The new architecture utilizes two new
operations, pointwise group convolution and channel shuffle, to greatly reduce
computation cost while maintaining accuracy. Experiments on ImageNet
classification and MS COCO object detection demonstrate the superior
performance of ShuffleNet over other structures, e.g. lower top-1 error
(absolute 7.8%) than recent MobileNet on ImageNet classification task, under
the computation budget of 40 MFLOPs. On an ARM-based mobile device, ShuffleNet
achieves ~13x actual speedup over AlexNet while maintaining comparable
accuracy
Towards lightweight convolutional neural networks for object detection
We propose model with larger spatial size of feature maps and evaluate it on
object detection task. With the goal to choose the best feature extraction
network for our model we compare several popular lightweight networks. After
that we conduct a set of experiments with channels reduction algorithms in
order to accelerate execution. Our vehicle detection models are accurate, fast
and therefore suit for embedded visual applications. With only 1.5 GFLOPs our
best model gives 93.39 AP on validation subset of challenging DETRAC dataset.
The smallest of our models is the first to achieve real-time inference speed on
CPU with reasonable accuracy drop to 91.43 AP.Comment: Submitted to the International Workshop on Traffic and Street

Object Detection in 20 Years: A Survey
Object detection, as of one the most fundamental and challenging problems in
computer vision, has received great attention in recent years. Its development
in the past two decades can be regarded as an epitome of computer vision
history. If we think of today's object detection as a technical aesthetics
under the power of deep learning, then turning back the clock 20 years we would
witness the wisdom of cold weapon era. This paper extensively reviews 400+
papers of object detection in the light of its technical evolution, spanning
over a quarter-century's time (from the 1990s to 2019). A number of topics have
been covered in this paper, including the milestone detectors in history,
detection datasets, metrics, fundamental building blocks of the detection
system, speed up techniques, and the recent state of the art detection methods.
This paper also reviews some important detection applications, such as
pedestrian detection, face detection, text detection, etc, and makes an in-deep
analysis of their challenges as well as technical improvements in recent years.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE TPAMI for possible
