Then, we present the error bar plots with mean D-ECE and std deviation (Sec. The error in particular detection is computed as it satisfies the false positive criteria. We report D-ECE on these challenging out-domain scenarios. (Figure 1). We show the bar plots depicting mean D-ECE with respective standard deviations.

Albeit revealing impressive predictive performance for several computer vision tasks, deep neural networks (DNNs) are prone to making overconfident predictions. This limits the adoption and wider utilization of DNNs in many safety-critical applications. There have been recent efforts toward calibrating DNNs, however, almost all of them focus on the classification task. Surprisingly, very little attention has been devoted to calibrating modern DNN-based object detectors, especially detection transformers, which have recently demonstrated promising detection performance and are influential in many decision-making systems. In this work, we address the problem by proposing a mechanism for calibrated detection transformers (Cal-DETR), particularly for Deformable-DETR, UP-DETR, and DINO.
