论文介绍

背景简介

这是发在2019ICCV上的一篇一阶段场景文本检测论文。主要是PSENet的升级版。PSENet虽然处理速度很快,准确度很高,但后处理过程繁琐,而且没办法和网络模型融合在一起,实现训练。PANet很好的解决了这一问题,把后处理过程也放入网络中,预测出三个loss,最后进行融合。

网络结构

上图为PAN的整个网络结构,网络主要由Backbone + Segmentation Head(FPEM + FFM) + Output(Text Region、Kernel、Similarity Vector)组成。

本文使用ResNet-18作为PAN的默认Backbone,并提出了低计算量的Segmentation Head(FPFE + FFM)以解决因为使用ResNet-18而导致的特征提取能力较弱,特征感受野较小且表征能力不足的缺点。

此外,为了精准地重建完整的文字实例(text instance),提出了一个可学习的后处理方法——像素聚合法(PA),它能够通过预测出的相似向量来引导文字像素聚合到正确的kernel上去。

下面将详细介绍一下上面的各个部分。

Backbone

Backbone选择的是resnet18, 提取stride为4,8,16,32的conv2,conv3,conv4,conv5的输出作为高低层特征。每层的特征图的通道数都使用1*1卷积降维至128得到轻量级的特征图Fr。

Segmentation Head

PAN使用resNet-18作为网络的默认backbone,虽减少了计算量,但是backbone层数的减少势必会带来模型学习能力的下降。为了提高效率,作者在 resNet-18基础上提出了一个低计算量但可高效增强特征的分割头Segmentation Head。它由两个关键模块组成:特征金字塔增强模块(Feature Pyramid Enhancement Module,FPEM)、特征融合模块(Feature Fusion Module,FFM)。

FPEM

Feature Pyramid Enhancement Module(FPEM),即特征金字塔增强模块。FPEM呈级联结构且计算量小,可以连接在backbone后面让不同尺寸的特征更深、更具表征能力,结构如下:

FPEM是一个U形模组,由两个阶段组成,up-scale增强、down-scale增强。up-scale增强作用于输入的特征金字塔,它以步长32,16,8,4像素在特征图上迭代增强。在down-scale阶段,输入的是由up-scale增强生成的特征金字塔,增强的步长从4到32,同时,down-scale增强输出的的特征金字塔就是最终FPEM的输出。 FPEM模块可以看成是一个轻量级的FPN,只不过这个FPEM计算量不大,可以不停级联以达到不停增强特征的作用。

FFM

Feature Fusion Module(FFM)模块用于融合不同尺度的特征,其结构如下:

最后通过上采样将它们Concatenate到一起。

模型最后预测三种信息: 1、文字区域 2、文字kernel 3、文字kernel的相似向量

Loss

其中文字区域和kernel预测loss为:
