Abstract
Object detection is essential in Computer Vision and is widely applied in all areas. This paper proposes a method called BAFPN. BAFPN is a new bidirectional Feature Pyramid Network that constructs accurate object detection networks based on YOLOv4 by implementing Adaptively Spatial Feature Fusion. Besides, Exponential Moving Average is used to improve the network performance. The developed network not only maintains high computing speed but also enhances the mAP by 4.3% when testing with the MS COCO dataset and when comparing it to the original YOLOv4. To further improve the performance, the trained model was pruned using the Batch Normalization layer's scaling factor, achieving an 18% reduction in size and improving object detection speed.

Spatial Pyramid Pooling in Deep Convolutional Networks for Visual Recognition

TL;DR: This work equips the networks with another pooling strategy, "spatial pyramid pooling", to eliminate the above requirement, and develops a new network structure, called SPP-net, which can generate a fixed-length representation regardless of image size/scale.
