BATF-Net: Bidirectional Feature Alignment and Transfer-Gated Fusion for RGB–Infrared UAV Detection
Reliable UAV detection from ground-based cameras remains difficult under changing illumination, complex backgrounds, and residual displacement between visible and infrared sensors. This paper proposes the Bidirectional Feature Alignment and Transfer-Gated Fusion Network (BATF-Net), a dual-stream detector that preserves...
