Fig. 8
The comparison of detection effects between 15 classic algorithms under the SIRST dataset and RT-DETR-CST. The large images on the left show 5 randomly selected images from the test dataset, while the middle section consists of 5 groups of images (2 rows x 8 columns x 5 groups) displaying the validation results of sequential algorithms tested on the 5 images from the dataset (the original images have no validation points: YOLOv5m, YOLOv6m, YOLOv7, YOLOv8m, YOLOv9m, YOLOv10m, YOLOv11m, YOLOv12m, EfficientDet, FCOS, FSAF, CenterNet, Faster-RCNN, RT-DETR-r18, RT-DETR-L). The 5 images on the right represent the algorithm validation results of RT-DETR-CST on the 5 images from the test dataset. Note: The red boxes indicate localized magnifications, the yellow circles denote missed labels, and the green circles indicate mislabels.
