Improving Detection of Person Class Using Dense Pooling

Nouman Ahmad·October 28, 2024

Summary

English Summary (100 words): Improving person detection using dense pooling in Faster R-CNN, converting images into 3D models for feature extraction, achieved significant results on the COCO dataset. Knowledge Distillation refined new models, outperforming Yolo-v7. Adaptively-sized pooling (SPP) and RPN in Faster R-CNN enhanced region-based semantic segmentation and object detection. DensePose method transformed 2D images into 3D for dense correspondence, improving detection accuracy. Faster RCNN with dense pooling showed improved precision on the COCO dataset, surpassing recent approaches in human class detection. Combining Faster RCNN and DensePose on the COCO dataset using Resnet50 backbone outperformed Faster RCNN alone. Various research papers and methods in computer vision, focusing on human dense pose estimation, object detection, and semantic segmentation, were discussed.
