📝 Abstract
Open-world object detection (OWOD) extends closed-set detection by requiring models to identify unknown objects and incrementally learn them once annotations become available. In remote sensing imagery, object categories often exhibit latent hierarchical relationships that may be inadequately represented in the Euclidean spaces commonly adopted by existing methods, limiting unknown-object recall and incremental-learning performance. To address this issue, we investigate hyperbolic geometry for OWOD in remote sensing imagery and propose HyRS-OWOD. To improve unknown object recall, we design a two-step unknown-object discovery mechanism: a Decoupled Objectness Learning (DOL) module that disentangles foreground perception from semantic information to separate foreground proposals from background regions, followed by a Hyperbolic Uncertainty Learning (HUL) component that leverages the radius of hyperbolic embeddings as an uncertainty-aware cue for known-unknown discrimination. For incremental learning, we develop a Hyperbolic Metric Learning (HML) strategy that enhances inter-class separability, facilitating the incorporation of novel categories while mitigating catastrophic forgetting. Experiments on three remote sensing benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements in unknown recall and incremental learning over state-of-the-art OWOD methods.
