Abstract

Object detection in images is an important task in image processing and computer vision. Many approaches are available for object detection. For example, there are numerous algorithms for object positioning and classification in images. However, the current methods perform poorly and lack experimental verification. Thus, it is a fascinating and challenging issue to position and classify image objects. Drawing on the recent advances in image object detection, this paper develops a region-baed efficient network for accurate object detection in images. To improve the overall detection performance, image object detection was treated as a twofold problem, involving object proposal generation and object classification. First, a framework was designed to generate high-quality, class-independent, accurate proposals. Then, these proposals, together with their input images, were imported to our network to learn convolutional features. To boost detection efficiency, the number of proposals was reduced by a network refinement module, leaving only a few eligible candidate proposals. After that, the refined candidate proposals were loaded into the detection module to classify the objects. The proposed model was tested on the test set of the famous PASCAL Visual Object Classes Challenge 2007 (VOC2007). The results clearly demonstrate that our model achieved robust overall detection efficiency over existing approaches using fewer or more proposals, in terms of recall, mean average best overlap (MABO), and mean average precision (mAP).
