A cycle-split heuristic, derived from DCRP’s connection to the traveling salesman problem, is introduced and combined with a series of destroy operators to construct the VDLNS algorithm.

An active learning strategy is introduced, leveraging partial annotations informed by predictions and uncertainties from previously trained models. Unlike other active learning frameworks, this approach not only facilitates the annotation of highly uncertain image regions but also targets those with low uncertainty, which often lead to false positives and negatives. The results demonstrate that using partial annotations within an active learning framework significantly reduces manual annotation efforts and training time without compromising model performance.
