Background:

Accurate detection of small-scale targets (people, bicycles, pedestrians) is crucial but challenging for drone-based systems, especially in high-density environments.
Existing real-time detection models often struggle with feature extraction and scale variation in complex scenes.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an improved detection model, DV-DETR, based on RT-DETR, specifically optimized for small target detection in high-density drone imagery.
To enhance feature extraction, multi-scale fusion, localization accuracy, and handling of scale-imbalanced data.

Main Methods:

Utilized ResNet18 as a backbone for efficient feature extraction and reduced model complexity.
Integrated recalibration attention and deformable attention mechanisms in the neck for improved feature fusion and localization.
Employed Focaler-IoU loss function to address scale imbalance and focus on difficult samples.

Main Results:

DV-DETR achieved a mean Average Precision (mAP@0.5) of 50.1% on the VisDrone2019 dataset, a 1.7% improvement over the baseline.
Detection speed increased from 75 FPS to 90 FPS, meeting real-time processing requirements.
Demonstrated enhanced accuracy and efficiency in detecting small targets within high-density scenes.

Conclusions:

DV-DETR offers significant improvements in accuracy and speed for drone-based small target detection.
The model's enhancements provide practical value for real-world applications like UAV surveillance and monitoring in complex urban environments.
