Researchers have developed a new method to improve few-shot object detection by addressing the imbalance of region proposals between novel and base classes. The approach uses a refinement loss during base training to boost sensitivity to new classes and introduces an auxiliary branch in Region Proposal Networks (RPNs) during fine-tuning to generate more relevant proposals. This technique achieves state-of-the-art results, outperforming existing methods by 1-6% without impacting inference speed. AI
