This paper investigates the robustness of one-stage object detectors in handling out-of-distribution (OoD) data. The authors propose a novel detection algorithm that leverages features extracted by the model to identify unknown objects without requiring retraining. Unlike previous approaches, this method exploits supervised dimensionality reduction and high-resolution feature maps for unsupervised unknown object detection. The authors analyze the Pareto trade-off between known and unknown object detection performance under different configurations and inference confidence thresholds. They also compare their proposed algorithm with logits-based post-hoc OoD methods and possible fusion strategies, demonstrating improved performance when combined with state-of-the-art OoD approaches on the Unknown Object Detection benchmark.

This research paper looks at how well object detection models work when they’re shown new or unusual data. The authors created a new way to detect unknown objects in images using features from the model itself, without needing to retrain it. This method uses techniques like dimensionality reduction and high-resolution maps to find unknown objects. They tested different settings and compared their approach with others, showing that combining their method with state-of-the-art approaches improves performance.
