摘要(Abstract):
针对无人机视角下道路缺陷检测中小尺度裂缝识别能力不足、下采样易丢失细节以及轻量化模型感受野有限、上下文建模能力弱等问题,提出一种改进的轻量化检测算法EWS-YOLOv8,以YOLOv8n为基础,在骨干和颈部网络中引入空间深度卷积,以增强低分辨率条件下对小目标的特征提取能力;设计C2f_WTConv模块,通过小波变换扩展感受野并降低参数量与计算量;在骨干网络中嵌入高效多尺度注意力机制,利用跨空间学习捕捉多尺度信息以优化性能实验表明,相较于原始YOLOv8n模型,EWS-YOLOv8算法在检测精度与平均精度均值方面分别提升11%与3.4%,模型参数量降低24.3%,浮点运算数减少21%。研究旨在通过协同优化,在显著降低模型复杂度的同时,大幅提升道路微小缺陷的检测精度,满足边缘设备实时部署需求,适用于道路巡检系统中高精度与高效率并重的自动化检测任务。
