In this paper, we analyze and discuss ShadowFormer in preparation for the NTIRE2023 Shadow Removal Challenge [1], implementing five key improvements: image alignment, the introduction of a perceptual quality loss function, the semi-automatic annotation for shadow detection, joint learning of shadow detection and removal, and the introduction of new data augmentation technique "CutShadow" for shadow removal.

Small Object Detection (SOD) is an important machine vision topic because (i) a variety of real-world applications require object detection for distant objects and (ii) SOD is a challenging task due to the noisy, blurred, and less-informative image appearances of small objects.
Ranked #2 on Small Object Detection on SOD4SB Public Test (using extra training data)
