  • Pedestrian detection benefits from deep learning technology and gains rapid development in recent years. Most of detectors follow general object detection frame, i.e. default boxes and two-stage process. Recently, anchor-free and one-stage detectors have been introduced into this area. However, their accuracies are unsatisfactory. Therefore, in order to enjoy the simplicity of anchor-free detectors and the accuracy of two-stage ones simultaneously, we propose some adaptations based on a detector, Center and Scale Prediction(CSP). The main contributions of our paper are: (1) We improve the robustness of CSP and make it easier to train. (2) We propose a novel method to predict width, namely compressing width. (3) We achieve the second best performance on CityPersons benchmark, i.e. 9.3% log-average miss rate(MR) on reasonable set, 8.7% MR on partial set and 5.6% MR on bare set, which shows an anchor-free and one-stage detector can still have high accuracy. (4) We explore some capabilities of Switchable Normalization which are not mentioned in its original paper.
