FA-YOLO: An Improved YOLO Model for Infrared Occlusion Object Detection under Confusing Background

Infrared target detection is a popular applied field in object detection as well as a challenge. This paper proposes the focus and attention mechanism-based YOLO (FA-YOLO), which is an improved method to detect the infrared occluded vehicles in the complex background of remote sensing images.
