Survey of Object Detection Methods in Camouflaged Image
Camouflage is an attempt to conceal the signature of a target object into the background image. Camouflage detection
methods or Decamouflaging method is basically used to detect foreground object hidden in the background image. In this
research paper authors presented survey of camouflage detection methods for different applications and areas
Pseudo Mask Augmented Object Detection
In this work, we present a novel and effective framework to facilitate object
detection with the instance-level segmentation information that is only
supervised by bounding box annotation. Starting from the joint object detection
and instance segmentation network, we propose to recursively estimate the
pseudo ground-truth object masks from the instance-level object segmentation
network training, and then enhance the detection network with top-down
segmentation feedbacks. The pseudo ground truth mask and network parameters are
optimized alternatively to mutually benefit each other. To obtain the promising
pseudo masks in each iteration, we embed a graphical inference that
incorporates the low-level image appearance consistency and the bounding box
annotations to refine the segmentation masks predicted by the segmentation
network. Our approach progressively improves the object detection performance
by incorporating the detailed pixel-wise information learned from the
weakly-supervised segmentation network. Extensive evaluation on the detection
task in PASCAL VOC 2007 and 2012 [12] verifies that the proposed approach is
effective
A Fusion Framework for Camouflaged Moving Foreground Detection in the Wavelet Domain
Detecting camouflaged moving foreground objects has been known to be
difficult due to the similarity between the foreground objects and the
background. Conventional methods cannot distinguish the foreground from
background due to the small differences between them and thus suffer from
under-detection of the camouflaged foreground objects. In this paper, we
present a fusion framework to address this problem in the wavelet domain. We
first show that the small differences in the image domain can be highlighted in
certain wavelet bands. Then the likelihood of each wavelet coefficient being
foreground is estimated by formulating foreground and background models for
each wavelet band. The proposed framework effectively aggregates the
likelihoods from different wavelet bands based on the characteristics of the
wavelet transform. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method
significantly outperformed existing methods in detecting camouflaged foreground
objects. Specifically, the average F-measure for the proposed algorithm was
0.87, compared to 0.71 to 0.8 for the other state-of-the-art methods.Comment: 13 pages, accepted by IEEE TI
