Abstract:
Neural networks designed for real-time object detection
have recently improved significantly, but in practice, look-
ing at only a single RGB image at the time may not be ideal.
For example, when detecting objects in videos, a foreground
detection algorithm can be used to obtain compact temporal
data, which can be fed into a neural network alongside RGB
images. We propose an approach for doing this, based on
an existing object detector, that re-uses pretrained weights
for the processing of RGB images. The neural network was
tested on the VIRAT dataset with annotations for object de-
tection, a problem this approach is well suited for. The ac-
curacy was found to improve significantly (up to 66%), with
a roughly 40% increase in computational time.
