We propose RingCo-DETR, a training-only, inference-neutral improvement to DETR-style oriented detection. It stabilizes matching by balancing heterogeneous costs and strengthening supervision, and improves rotation robustness via frequency regularization. On DOTA-v1.5 and HIT-UAV, it achieves 81.7/83.1 mAP@50 with higher recall and more stable training, benefiting airfield monitoring.
