New framework improves infrared small-target detection with physics-based labels

Researchers have developed a new framework called Diffuse to Detect to improve infrared small-target detection using point-based supervision. This method addresses challenges like unstable pseudo-labeling in complex imagery and imbalanced sample distributions. By using a physics-induced annotation strategy based on heat diffusion, the system generates more reliable pseudo-masks from single-point labels and employs a bi-level dual-update framework to optimize detector and sample weights.

    Diffuse to Detect: Bi-Level Sample Rebalancing with Pseudo-Label Diffusion for Point-Supervised Infrared Small-Target Detection

    Point supervision has become a scalable solution to address dense annotation for infrared small target detection, but its performance is limited by two coupled bottlenecks: unstable pseudo-label evolution in cluttered, low-contrast infrared imagery and severe sample-distribution …
