A bio-inspired network, HVPNet, for general salient and camouflaged object detection introduces a lightweight architecture drawing from human retinal integration and cortical decoding. This model achieves competitive or leading detection performance across seven tasks and 22 datasets while reducing model parameters and computational costs by approximately 90% compared to many existing heavyweight methods.
Key insights
- Effective salient and camouflaged object detection can be achieved with significantly simpler and more efficient architectures by drawing inspiration from the human visual system, challenging the prevalent 'heavy' paradigm.
- Level-specific feature integration, conceptualized by the retina's multi-layered processing, allows for efficient and precise coordination of multi-modal information, preventing redundancy and improving feature utility.
- A hierarchical decoding strategy, mimicking cortical visual processing, effectively unifies global semantic cues with fine-grained local details to produce accurate detection maps with clear boundaries.
