NMS算法的大致过程可以看原文这段话:
-
First, it sorts all detection boxes on the basis of their scores. The detection box M with the maximum score is selected and all other detection boxes with a significant overlap (using a pre-defined threshold) with M are suppressed. This process is recursively applied on the remaining boxes.
-
那么传统的NMS算法存在什么问题呢?可以看Figure1。在Fiugre1中,检测算法本来应该输出两个框,但是传统的NMS算法可能会把score较低的绿框过滤掉(如果绿框和红框的IOU大于设定的阈值就会被过滤掉),导致只检测出一个object(一个马),显然这样object的recall就比较低了。
-
可以看出NMS算法是略显粗暴(hard),因为NMS直接将和得分最大的box的IOU大于某个阈值的box的得分置零,那么有没有soft一点的方法呢?这就是本文提出Soft NMS。那么Soft-NMS算法到底是什么样呢?简单讲就是:An algorithm which decays the detection scores of all other objects as a continuous function of their overlap with M. 换句话说就是用稍低一点的分数来代替原有的分数,而不是直接置零。另外由于Soft NMS可以很方便地引入到object detection算法中,不需要重新训练原有的模型,因此这是该算法的一大优点。
-
Figure2是Soft NMS算法的伪代码。首先是关于三个输入B、S、Nt,在FIgure2中已经介绍很清楚了。D集合用来放最终的box,在boxes集合B非空的前提下,搜索score集合S中数值最大的数,假设其下标为m,那么bm(也是M)就是对应的box。然后将M和D集合合并,并从B集合中去除M。再循环集合B中的每个box,这个时候就有差别了,如果是传统的NMS操作,那么当B中的box bi和M的IOU值大于阈值Nt,那么就从B和S中去除该box;如果是Soft NMS,则对于B中的box bi也是先计算其和M的IOU,然后该IOU值作为函数f()的输入,最后和box bi的score si相乘作为最后该box bi的score。就是这么简单!
