A Novel Tensor Decomposition-Based Efficient Detector for Low-Altitude Aerial Objects With Knowledge Distillation Scheme

Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)have gained sig-nificant attention in practical applications,especially the low-alti-tude aerial(LAA)object detection imposes stringent require-ments on recognition accuracy and computational resources.In this paper,the LAA images-oriented tensor decomposition and knowledge distillation-based network(TDKD-Net)is proposed,where the TT-format TD(tensor decomposition)and equal-weighted response-based KD(knowledge distillation)methods are designed to minimize redundant parameters while ensuring com-parable performance.Moreover,some robust network structures are developed,including the small object detection head and the dual-domain attention mechanism,which enable the model to leverage the learned knowledge from small-scale targets and selectively focus on salient features.Considering the imbalance of bounding box regression samples and the inaccuracy of regres-sion geometric factors,the focal and efficient IoU(intersection of union)loss with optimal transport assignment(F-EIoU-OTA)mechanism is proposed to improve the detection accuracy.The proposed TDKD-Net is comprehensively evaluated through extensive experiments,and the results have demonstrated the effectiveness and superiority of the developed methods in com-parison to other advanced detection algorithms,which also present high generalization and strong robustness.As a resource-efficient precise network,the complex detection of small and occluded LAA objects is also well addressed by TDKD-Net,which provides useful insights on handling imbalanced issues and real-izing domain adaptation.
