ABSTRACT
Nowadays, the focus on few-shot object detection (FSOD) is fueled by limited remote sensing data availability. In view of various challenges posed by remote sensing images (RSIs) and FSOD, we propose a meta-learning-based Balanced Few-Shot Object Detector (B-FSDet), built upon YOLOv9 (GELAN-C version). Firstly, addressing the problem of incompletely annotated objects that potentially breaks the balance of the few-shot principle, we propose a straightforward yet efficient data clearing strategy, which ensures balanced input of each category. Additionally, considering the significant variance fluctuations in output feature vectors from the support set that lead to reduced effectiveness in accurately representing object information for each class, we propose a stationary feature extraction module and corresponding stationary and fast prediction method, forming a stationary meta-learning mode. In the end, in consideration of the issue of minimal inter-class differences in RSIs, we propose inter-class discrimination support loss based on the stationary meta-learning mode to ensure the information provided for each class from the support set is balanced and easier to distinguish. Our proposed detector's performance is evaluated on the DIOR and NWPU VHR-10.v2 datasets, and comparative analysis with state-of-the-art detectors reveals promising performance.
