description | Infrared target detection has a wide range of application value, but due to the characteristics of infrared images, infrared targets are easily submerged in the complex background. Therefore, in complex scenes, it is difficult to effectively and accurately detect infrared dim small targets. For this reason, we design an infrared dim small target (IDST) detection algorithm containing Large-size Receptive Fields (LRFNet). It uses the Residual network with an Inverted Pyramid Structure (RIPS), which consists of convolutional layers that become progressively smaller, so it can have a larger effective receptive field and can improve the robustness of the model. In addition, through the Attention Mechanisms with Large Receptive Fields and Inverse Bottlenecks (LRIB), it can make the network better localize the region where the target is located and improve the detection effect of the model. The experimental results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms in all evaluation metrics. |
