METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING AN OBJECT IN AN IMAGE

A method for detecting an object in an image includes: obtaining an image to be detected; generating a plurality of feature maps based on the image to be detected by a plurality of feature extracting networks in a neural network model trained for object detection, in which the plurality of feature extracting networks are connected sequentially, and input data of a latter feature extracting network in the plurality of feature extracting networks is based on output data and input data of a previous feature extracting network; and generating an object detection result based on the plurality of feature maps by an object detecting network in the neural network model.
