In recent years, the accuracy of image classification is greatly improved with deep learning, thus the object detection methods based on deep learning have gradually become mainstream. The development and present situation of object detection methods are reviewed, and a prospect is made. Firstly, the development, improvement and deficiency of the traditional algorithms and depth learning-based algorithms are summarized, and then compared. Finally, the difficulties and challenges of the object detection method based on deep learning are discussed, and the possible development direction is prospected. %U http://cea.ceaj.org/EN/10.3778/j.issn.1002-8331.1804-0167
