Abstract
En 中文
To solve the problems that the conventional object detector is hard to extract features and miss detec-tion of small objects when detecting underwater objects due to the noise of underwater environment and the scale change of objects, this paper designs a novel feature enhancement & progressive dynamic aggregation strategy, and proposes a new underwater object detector based on YOLOv5s. Firstly, a fea-ture enhancement gating module is designed to selectively suppress or enhance multi-level features and reduce the interference of underwater complex environment noise on feature fusion. Then, the adjacent feature fusion mechanism and dynamic fusion module are designed to dynamically learn fusion weights and perform multi-level feature fusion progressively, so as to suppress the conflict information in multi -scale feature fusion and prevent small objects from being submerged by the conflict information. At last, a spatial pyramid pool structure (FMSPP) based on the same size quickly mixed pool layer is proposed, which can make the network obtain stronger description ability of texture and contour features, reduce the parameters, and further improve the generalization ability and classification accuracy. The ablation experiments and multi-method comparison experiments on URPC and DUT-USEG data sets prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Compared with the current mainstream detectors, our detector achieves obvious advantages in detection performance and efficiency.(c) 2023 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
