Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Accurate segmentation of cockpit Regions of Interest (ROIs) is fundamental for pilot visual assistance systems, yet current methods struggle with environmental variability and the high complexity of cockpit information. To address these challenges, this study proposes YOLO-EES, an enhanced semantic segmentation network designed for robust perception in dynamic flight environments. Specifically, we introduce wConv and EMA into the backbone to mitigate feature degradation caused by visual noise. Furthermore, the C2f module is reconstructed using Multi-order Gated Aggregation (MOGA), and combined with CPCA in the neck architecture to optimize multi-scale feature fusion, thereby improving the detection of small or obscured instruments. To validate the method, a specialized dataset was constructed based on pilot eye-tracking data collected from simulated flight tasks under varying conditions (daytime, foggy, and nighttime). Experimental results demonstrate that YOLO-EES achieves significant performance gains—improving precision by 2.75% and mAP50-95 by 3.75%—while maintaining a manageable increase in model complexity. These findings confirm the efficacy of the proposed computational framework for reliable cockpit monitoring in adverse engineering scenarios.
