description | Object detection in remote sensing images is a critical task within the field of remote sensing image interpretation and analysis, serving as a fundamental foundation for military surveillance and traffic guidance. Recently, although many object detection algorithms have been improved to adapt to the characteristics of remote sensing images and have achieved good performance, most of them still use horizontal bounding boxes, which struggle to accurately mark targets with multiple angles and dense arrangements in remote sensing images. We propose an oriented bounding box optical remote sensing image object detection method based on an enhanced feature pyramid, and add an attention module to suppress background noise. To begin with, we incorporate an angle prediction module that accurately locates the detection target. Subsequently, we design an enhanced feature pyramid network, utilizing deformable convolutions and feature fusion modules to enhance the feature information of rotating targets and improve the expressive capacity of features at all levels. The proposed algorithm in this paper performs well on the public DOTA dataset and HRSC2016 dataset, compared with other object detection methods, and the detection accuracy AP values of most object categories are improved by at least three percentage points. The results show that our method can accurately locate densely arranged and dynamically oriented targets, significantly reducing the risk of missing detections, and achieving higher levels of target detection accuracy. |
