1.RT-DETR介绍
论文： https://arxiv.org/pdf/2304.08069.pdf
摘要： RT-DETR是第一个实时端到端目标检测器。具体而言，我们设计了一个高效的混合编码器，通过解耦尺度内交互和跨尺度融合来高效处理多尺度特征，并提出了IoU感知的查询选择机制，以优化解码器查询的初始化。此外，RT-DETR支持通过使用不同的解码器层来灵活调整推理速度，而不需要重新训练，这有助于实时目标检测器的实际应用。RT-DETR-L在COCO val2017上实现了53.0%的AP，在T4 GPU上实现了114FPS，RT-DETR-X实现了54.8%的AP和74FPS，在速度和精度方面都优于相同规模的所有YOLO检测器。RT-DETR-R50实现了53.1%的AP和108FPS，RT-DETR-R101实现了54.3%的AP和74FPS，在精度上超过了全部使用相同骨干网络的DETR检测器。
YOLO的问题点是什么？
YOLO 检测器有个较大的待改进点是需要 NMS 后处理，其通常难以优化且不够鲁棒，因此检测器的速度存在延迟。为避免该问题，我们将目光移向了不需要 NMS 后处理的 DETR，一种基于 Transformer 的端到端目标检测器。然而，相比于 YOLO 系列检测器，DETR 系列检测器的速度要慢的多，这使得"无需 NMS "并未在速度上体现出优势。上述问题促使我们针对实时的端到端检测器进行探索，旨在基于 DETR 的优秀架构设计一个全新的实时检测器，从根源上解决 NMS 对实时检测器带来的速度延迟问题。
NMS 是目标检测领域常用的后处理技术，用于去除检测器产生的重叠较多的检测框，其包含两个超参数：置信度阈值和 IoU 阈值。具体来说，低于置信度阈值的框被直接过滤，并且如果两个检测框的交并比大于 IoU 阈值，那么其中置信度低的框会被滤除。该过程迭代执行，直到所有类别都被处理完毕。因此，NMS 算法的执行时间取决于预测框数量和上述两个阈值。为了更好地说明这一点，我们使用 YOLOv5 (anchor-based) 和 YOLOv8 (anchor-free) 进行了统计和实测，测量指标包括不同置信度阈值下剩余的检测框的数量，以及在不同的超参数组合下检测器在 COCO 验证集上的精度和 NMS 的执行时间。实验结果表明，NMS 不仅会延迟推理速度，并且不够鲁棒，需要挑选合适的超参数才能达到最优精度。这一实验结果有力证明设计一种实时的端到端检测器是具有重要意义的。
RT-DETR模型结构
(1)Backbone： 采用了经典的ResNet和百度自研的HGNet-v2两种，backbone是可以Scaled，HGNetv2的L和X两个版本，分别对标经典的ResNet50和ResNet101，不同于DINO等DETR类检测器使用最后4个stage输出，RT-DETR为了提速只需要最后3个，这样也符合YOLO的风格；
(2) Neck： 起名为HybridEncoder，其实是相当于DETR中的Encoder，其也类似于经典检测模型模型常用的FPN，论文里分析了Encoder计算量是比较冗余的，作者解耦了基于Transformer的这种全局特征编码，设计了AIFI (尺度内特征交互）和 CCFM(跨尺度特征融合）结合的新的高效混合编码器也就是 Efficient Hybrid Encoder ，此外把encoder_layer层数由6减小到1层，并且由几个通道维度区分L和X两个版本，配合CCFM中RepBlock数量一起调节宽度深度实现Scaled RT-DETR；
颈部
RT-DETR采用了一层Transformer的Encoder，只处理主干网络输出的 S5 特征，即AIFI（Attention-based Intra-scale Feature Interaction）模块。
实验结果
RT-DETR-R50 在 COCO val2017 上的精度为 53.1% AP，在 T4 GPU 上的 FPS 为 108，RT-DETR-R101 的精度为 54.3% AP，FPS 为 74。总结来说，RT-DETR 比具有相同 backbone 的 DETR 系列检测器有比较显著的精度提升和速度提升。
