BM-FSOD: Few-Shot Object Detection Method Based on Background Reconstruction and Multi-Channel Interactive Feature Fusion

Few-shot object detection suffers from limited annotations, redundant background interference, insufficient feature interaction, and severe sample imbalance. Existing meta-learning-based methods extract class prototypes from support images but often fail to effectively suppress background noise or align channel-wise features between support and query branches. To address these issues, we propose a few-shot object detection method based on background reconstruction and multi-channel interactive feature fusion. First, a background reconstruction module is designed to suppress redundant background interference by applying random region masking to support set images, thereby generating robust class prototype features that are resistant to background noise. Second, a multi-channel interactive feature fusion module is designed, which leverages depthwise separable convolution to enable effective channel-wise feature interaction and information alignment between support class prototypes and query features, thereby enhancing cross-branch feature interaction and fusion. Finally, to address the uneven sample distribution and the foreground–background imbalance in few-shot scenarios, we proposed a category-aware weighted loss. By appropriately weighting the contributions of different object categories and background samples, the proposed loss encourages balanced optimization, resulting in faster convergence and improved detection performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method improves detection accuracy and generalization performance under few-shot settings. On the Pascal VOC dataset (Split1), the proposed method achieves 45.1%, 62.9%, and 67.1% under 1-shot, 3-shot, and 10-shot settings, respectively, outperforming the baseline; consistent improvements are also observed on the MS COCO dataset and the DIOR dataset.

Abstract

Few-shot object detection suffers from limited annotations, redundant background interference, insufficient feature interaction, and severe sample imbalance. Existing meta-learning-based methods extract class prototypes from support images but often fail to effectively suppress background noise or align channel-wise features between support and query branches. To address these issues, we propose a few-shot object detection method based on background reconstruction and multi-channel interactive feature fusion. First, a background reconstruction module is designed to suppress redundant background interference by applying random region masking to support set images, thereby generating robust class prototype features that are resistant to background noise. Second, a multi-channel interactive feature fusion module is designed, which leverages depthwise separable convolution to enable effective channel-wise feature interaction and information alignment between support class prototypes and query features, thereby enhancing cross-branch feature interaction and fusion. Finally, to address the uneven sample distribution and the foreground–background imbalance in few-shot scenarios, we proposed a category-aware weighted loss. By appropriately weighting the contributions of different object categories and background samples, the proposed loss encourages balanced optimization, resulting in faster convergence and improved detection performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method improves detection accuracy and generalization performance under few-shot settings. On the Pascal VOC dataset (Split1), the proposed method achieves 45.1%, 62.9%, and 67.1% under 1-shot, 3-shot, and 10-shot settings, respectively, outperforming the baseline; consistent improvements are also observed on the MS COCO dataset and the DIOR dataset.
