Information Density Imbalance in Visual Object Detection

The paper introduces the concept of information density to explain category bias in visual object detection. It finds a strong negative correlation between a category’s information density and its detection accuracy, showing that instance count alone does not account for bias. By incorporating information density into three advanced loss functions, the authors demonstrate significant bias reduction and overall performance gains on Pascal VOC, COCO‑LT, and LVIS datasets.
