目标检测算法改进系列之嵌入Deformable ConvNets v2 (DCNv2)

Deformable ConvNets v2

简介：由于构造卷积神经网络所用的模块中几何结构是固定的，其几何变换建模的能力本质上是有限的。在DCN v1中引入了两种新的模块来提高卷积神经网络对变换的建模能力，即可变形卷积 (deformable convolution) 和可变形兴趣区域池化 (deformable ROI pooling)。它们都是基于在模块中对空间采样的位置信息作进一步位移调整的想法，该位移可在目标任务中学习得到，并不需要额外的监督信号。新的模块可以很方便在现有的卷积神经网络中取代它们的一般版本，并能很容易进行标准反向传播端到端的训练，从而得到可变形卷积网络 (deformable convolutional network)。但是增加偏移之后可能会将无关的信息考虑进去，影响最终的结果。所以在DCN v2中作者对DCN v1进行了提升，减小无关信息的干扰。
