Abstract
This paper proposes statistics adaptive linear regression-based object size prediction method for object detection. YOLOv2 and YOLOv3, which are typical deep learning-based object detection algorithms, designed the last layer of a network using statistics adaptive exponential regression model to predict the size of objects. However, an exponential regression model can propagate a high derivative of a loss function into all parameters in a network because of the property of an exponential function. We propose statistics adaptive linear regression layer to ease the gradient exploding problem of the exponential regression model. The proposed statistics adaptive linear regression model is used in the last layer of the network to predict the size of objects with statistics estimated from training dataset. We newly designed the network based on the YOLOv3tiny and it shows the higher performance compared to YOLOv3 tiny on the UFPR-ALPR dataset.
