Towards Generalized Few-Shot Open-Set Object Detection

Open-set object detection (OSOD) aims to detect the known categories and reject unknown objects in a dynamic world, which has achieved significant attention. However, previous approaches only consider this problem in data-abundant conditions, while neglecting the few-shot scenes. In this paper, we seek a solution for the generalized few-shot open-set object detection (G-FOOD), which aims to avoid detecting unknown classes as known classes with a high confidence score while maintaining the performance of few-shot detection. The main challenge for this task is that few training samples induce the model to overfit on the known classes, resulting in a poor open-set performance. We propose a new G-FOOD algorithm to tackle this issue, named \underline{F}ew-sh\underline{O}t \underline{O}pen-set \underline{D}etector (FOOD), which contains a novel class weight sparsification classifier (CWSC) and a novel unknown decoupling learner (UDL). To prevent over-fitting, CWSC randomly sparses parts of the normalized weights for the logit prediction of all classes, and then decreases the co-adaptability between the class and its neighbors. Alongside, UDL decouples training the unknown class and enables the model to form a compact unknown decision boundary. Thus, the unknown objects can be identified with a confidence probability without any threshold, prototype, or generation. We compare our method with several state-of-the-art OSOD methods in few-shot scenes and observe that our method improves the F-score of unknown classes by 4.80\%-9.08\% across all shots in VOC-COCO dataset settings \footnote[1]{The source code is available at \url{https://github.com/binyisu/food}}.
