contents In high-energy physics, estimating anti-neutron parameters (position and momentum) using the electromagnetic calorimeter (EMC) is crucial but challenging. To conquer this challenge, we propose Vision Calorimeter (ViC), a framework that migrates visual object detectors to analyze particle images. The motivation lies in introducing a physics-inspired heat-conduction operator (HCO) into the detector's backbone and head to handle the discrete and sparse patterns of these images. Implemented via the Discrete Cosine Transform, HCO extracts frequency-domain features, bridging the distribution gap between natural and particle images. Experiments demonstrate that ViC significantly outperforms conventional methods, reducing the incident position prediction error by 46.16% (from 17.31° to 9.32°) and providing the first baseline result with an incident momentum regression error of 21.48%. This study underscores ViC's great potential as a reliable particle detector for high-energy physics. Code is available at https://github.com/yuhongtian17/ViC.
