1. 什么是非极大值抑制

非极大值抑制，简称为NMS算法，英文为Non-Maximum Suppression。其思想是搜素局部极大值，抑制非极大值元素。NMS算法在不同应用中的具体实现不太一样，但思想是一样的。非极大值抑制，在计算机视觉任务中得到了广泛的应用，例如边缘检测、人脸检测、目标检测（DPM，YOLO，SSD，Faster R-CNN）等。

2. 为什么要用非极大值抑制

以目标检测为例：目标检测的过程中在同一目标的位置上会产生大量的候选框，这些候选框相互之间可能会有重叠，此时我们需要利用非极大值抑制找到最佳的目标边界框，消除冗余的边界框。Demo如下图：

左图是人脸检测的候选框结果，每个边界框有一个置信度得分(confidence score)，如果不使用非极大值抑制，就会有多个候选框出现。右图是使用非极大值抑制之后的结果，符合我们人脸检测的预期结果。

3. 如何使用非极大值抑制

前提：目标边界框列表及其对应的置信度得分列表，设定阈值，阈值用来删除重叠较大的边界框。
IoU：intersection-over-union，即两个边界框的交集部分除以它们的并集。

非极大值抑制的流程如下：

根据置信度得分进行排序
选择置信度最高的比边界框添加到最终输出列表中，将其从边界框列表中删除
计算所有边界框的面积
计算置信度最高的边界框与其它候选框的IoU。
删除IoU大于阈值的边界框
重复上述过程，直至边界框列表为空。

4. 算法原理

3邻域情况下NMS的实现

3邻域情况下的NMS即判断一维数组I[W]的元素I[i](2<=i<=W-1)是否大于其左邻元素I[i-1]和右邻元素I[i+1]，算法流程如下图所示：

a. 算法流程3-5行判断当前元素是否大于其左邻与右邻元素，如符合条件，该元素即为极大值点。对于极大值点I[i]，已知I[i]>I[i+1]，故无需对i+1位置元素做进一步处理，直接跳至i+2位置，对应算法流程第12行。

b. 若元素I[i]不满足算法流程第3行判断条件，将其右邻I[i+1]作为极大值候选，对应算法流程第7行。采用单调递增的方式向右查找，直至找到满足I[i]>I[i+1]的元素，若i<=W-1，该点即为极大值点，对应算法流程第10-11行。
