A comprehensive swarming intelligent method for optimizing deep learning-based object detection by unmanned ground vehicles.

ABSTRACT: Unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) are an important research application of artificial intelligence. In particular, the deep learning-based object detection method is widely used in UGV-based environmental perception. Good experimental results are achieved by the deep learning-based object detection method Faster region-based convolutional neural network (Faster R-CNN). However, the exploration space of the region proposal network (RPN) is restricted by its expression. In our paper, a boosted RPN (BRPN) with three improvements is developed to solve this problem. First, a novel enhanced pooling network is designed in this paper. Therefore, the BRPN can adapt to objects with different shapes. Second, the expression of BRPN loss function is improved to learn the negative samples. Furthermore, th
