The research of infrared image small-target detection is of great significance to security monitoring, satellite remote sensing, infrared early warning, and precision guidance systems. However, small infrared targets occupy few pixels and lack color and texture features, which make the detection of small infrared targets extremely challenging. This paper proposes an effective single-stage infrared small-target detection method based on improved FCOS (Fully Convolutional One-Stage Object Detection) and spatio-temporal features. In view of the simple features of infrared small targets and the requirement of real-time detection, based on the standard FCOS network, we propose a lightweight network model combined with traditional filtering methods, whose response for small infrared targets is enhanced, and the background response is suppressed. At the same time, in order to eliminate the influence of static noise points in the infrared image on the detection of small infrared targets, time domain features are added to the improved FCOS network in the form of image sequences, so that the network can learn the spatio-temporal correlation features in the image sequence. Finally, compared with current typical infrared small-target detection methods, the comparative experiments show that the improved FCOS method proposed in this paper had better detection accuracy and real-time performance for infrared small targets. |
