Good idea. I haven’t looked too closely yet at the “hard” datasets. We originally considered “fixing” the labels on these datasets by hand, but ultimately decided that label error is one of the challenges “real world” datasets have that models should work to become more robust against. There is some selection bias in that we did make sure that the datasets we chose passed the eye test (in other words, it looked like the user spent a considerable amount of time annotating & a sample of the images looked like they labeled some object of interest). For aerial images in particular my guess would be that these models suffer from the “small object problem”[1] where the subjects are tiny compared to the size of the image. Trying a sliding window based approach like SAHI[2] on them would probably produce much better results (at the expense of much lower inference speed).
