Table 8 Effectiveness analysis of the adaptive weighting mechanism in the EFEM.

From: Cross-modal edge-enhanced detector for UAV-based multispectral object detection

EFEM Configuration

mAP@50

Mechanism Description

Baseline (No EFEM)

82.6

Slow convergence, sub-optimal performance

EFEM (Fixed Avg. Fusion)

83.2

\(\lambda {}_{{_{{rgb}}}}\)= 0.5,\(\lambda {}_{{ir}}\)=0.5 (Fixed average)

EFEM (Adaptive Weighted)

84.4

\(\lambda {}_{{_{{rgb}}}}\) and \(\lambda {}_{{ir}}\) are learnable parameters.
