MRD: A Linear-Complexity Encoder for Real-Time Vehicle Detection by Kaijie Li, Xiaoci Huang

“…To address these limitations, this study introduces Mamba RT-DETR (MRD), an optimized architecture featuring three principal innovations: (1) We devise an efficient vehicle detection Mamba (EVDMamba) network that strategically integrates a linear-complexity state space model (SSM) to substantially mitigate computational overhead while preserving feature extraction efficacy. (2) To counteract the constrained receptive fields and suboptimal spatial localization associated with conventional SSM sequence modeling, we implement a multi-branch collaborative learning framework that synergistically optimizes channel dimension processing, thereby augmenting the model’s capacity to capture critical spatial dependencies. (3) Comprehensive evaluations on the BDD100K benchmark demonstrate that MRD architecture achieves a 3.1% enhancement in mean average precision (mAP) relative to state-of-the-art RT-DETR variants, while concurrently reducing parameter count by 55.7%—a dual optimization of accuracy and efficiency.…”
