Efficient RGB-T Object Detection via Sparse Cross-Modality Fusion
Chao Tian, Zikun Zhou, Chao Yang, Guoqing Zhu, Zhenyu He
RGB-T detectors leverage the complementary strengths of visible and thermal infrared modalities, achieving robust performance under challenging conditions. Many of them resort to heavy dual backbones and exhaustive cross-modality fusion across the entire image, leading to impract…
