A Small Target Pedestrian Detection Model Based on Autonomous Driving
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Since small-target pedestrians account for a small proportion of pixels in images and lack texture features, the feature information of small-target pedestrians is often ignored in the feature extraction process, leading to reduced accuracy and poor robustness. To improve the accuracy of small-target pedestrian detection and the anti-interference ability of the model, a small-target pedestrian detection model that fuses residual networks and feature pyramids is proposed. First, a residual block with a discard layer is constructed to replace the standard residual block in the residual network structure to reduce the complexity of the model computation process and solve the problems of gradient disappearance and explosion in the deep network. Then, feature selection and feature alignment modules are added to the lateral connection part of the feature pyramid to enhance important pedestrian features in the input image, and the multiscale feature fusion capability of the model is enhanced for small-target pedestrians, thereby improving the detection accuracy of small-target pedestrians and solving the problems of feature misalignment and ignored multiscale features in the feature pyramid network. Finally, a cascaded autofocus query module is proposed to increase the inference speed of the feature pyramid network through focusing and querying, thus improving the performance and efficiency of small-target pedestrian detection. The experimental results show that the proposed model achieves better detection results than previous models.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
