Deformable DETR: reference-guided sparse multi-scale attention

Contribution grade

Transformer object detection · Human-designed research method or resource

Reference score145,000Provisional editorial estimate of this exact contribution; its grade is assessed separately.

What changed

Predicted a small set of sampling offsets and attention weights around reference points, using interpolated multi-scale image features to reduce dense-attention cost and improve detector training.

Scientific scope

Predicted a small set of sampling offsets and attention weights around reference points, using interpolated multi-scale image features to reduce dense-attention cost and improve detector training. Inherits deformable convolution and DETR set prediction. Query-predicted sparse sampling is not exact dense-attention equivalence or a theorem of preserved accuracy. Complexity savings assume a bounded sampling count; training comparisons are benchmark-specific.
