Recently, the research on drone-view object detection (DOD) has predominantly centered on efficiently identifying objects through cropping high-resolution images. However, it has overlooked the distinctive challenges posed by scale imbalance and a higher prevalence of small objects in drone images. In this paper, to address the challenges associated with the detection of drones (DODs), we introduce a specialized detector called DroneNet. Firstly, we propose a feature information enhancement module (FIEM) that effectively preserves object information and can be seamlessly integrated as a plug-and-play module into the backbone network. Then, we propose a split-concat feature pyramid network (SCFPN) that not only fuses feature information from different scales but also enables more comprehensive exploration of feature layers with many small objects. Finally, we develop a coarse to refine label assign (CRLA) strategy for small objects, which assigns labels from coarse- to fine-grained levels and ensures adequate training of small objects during the training process. In addition, to further promote the development of DOD, we introduce a new dataset named OUC-UAV-DET. Extensive experiments on VisDrone2021, UAVDT, and OUC-UAV-DET demonstrate that our proposed detector, DroneNet, exhibits significant improvements in handling challenging targets, outperforming state-of-the-art detectors.
