摘要

The cross-modal crowd counting methods introduce additional modal features to more effectively address the challenges of counting tasks in complex lighting scenes. To fully encode the contextual semantic information from different modalities, we propose a Cross-attention Multi-scale Fusion Network (CMFNet) by combining attention mechanism. Specifically, Cross-modal feature Extraction-Aggregation Module (CEAM) has been developed with the purpose of fusing complementary features during the process of cross-modal information interaction. The module employs cross-attention in order to achieve feature alignment in an adaptive manner. Furthermore, the Multi-scale Context Aggregation Module (MCAM) has been proposed to perform multi-level feature extraction on the fusion features obtained from CEAM, thereby facilitating the efficient mining of disparate levels of information from the cross-modal fusion features. The high-quality crowd density map is calculated through a regression head based on the feature map aggregated from MCAM. Experimental results on three popular datasets demonstrate that our approach not only shows competitive performance, but also indicates the good generalizability for RGB-T and RGB-D cross-modal crowd counting tasks.
