摘要

摘要: 随着多光谱感知与智能视觉技术的发展, 如何在复杂环境中实现稳定而精确的目标检测已成为自动化视觉检测领域的重要研究方向. 针对传统单模态可见光目标检测在夜间、大雾及低照度等复杂环境中性能下降的问题, 提出一种基于频域特征细化导向的多光谱稀疏融合目标检测方法. 该方法利用共享权重的双分支编码器分别提取可见光与红外光特征, 并通过组稀疏自注意力模块实现跨模态长距离特征筛选, 以抑制冗余信息、增强显著特征表达. 同时, 设计频域自适应加权模块, 在频域空间中进行多光谱特征解耦与自适应融合, 实现不同光谱模态间的高效语义交互与动态权重分配. 该方法可在端到端框架下实现跨模态特征的高精度对齐与融合, 有效提升模型的检测精度与鲁棒性. 在M³FD、KAIST和FLIR三个公开数据集上分别取得83.5%, 76.2%和81.6%的mAP₅₀结果, 显著优于现有多光谱目标检测算法, 验证了所提方法在复杂场景下的优越性能和泛化能力.

Abstract: With the development of multispectral perception and intelligent vision technologies, achieving reliable and accurate object detection in complex environments has become a critical research focus in automatic vision detection. To address the performance degradation problem of traditional unimodal visible-light object detection in complex environments such as darkness, heavy fog, and low illumination, this paper proposes a multispectral sparse fusion object detection method guided by frequency-domain feature refinement. The proposed method employs a dual-branch encoder with shared weights to extract features from visible and infrared modalities. A group sparse self-attention module is designed to perform cross-modal long-range feature selection, suppress redundant information, and enhance salient feature representation. Furthermore, a frequency-domain adaptive weighting module is developed to decouple and adaptively fuse multispectral features in the frequency domain, achieving efficient semantic interaction and dynamic weighting allocation across different spectral modalities. Under an end-to-end architecture, this method realizes high-precision cross-modal feature alignment and fusion, significantly improving detection accuracy and robustness. The proposed method achieved mAP₅₀ results of 83.5%, 76.2%, and 81.6% on the M³FD, KAIST and FLIR public datasets, respectively. These results significantly outperform those of existing multispectral object detection algorithms, and demonstrate the superior performance and generalization capability of the proposed method in complex scenes.
