A novel thermal infrared salient human detection model combined with thermal features called TFSHD is proposed. The TFSHD model is still based on U-Net,but the decoder module structure and model lightweight have been redesigned. In order to improve the detection accuracy of the algorithm in complex scenes,a fusion module composed of thermal branch and saliency branch is added to the decoder of the TFSHD model. Furthermore,a predictive loss function that is more sensitive to high temperature regions of the image is designed. Additionally,for the sake of reducing the computing resource requirements of the algorithm,a model lightweight scheme that includes simplifying the encoder network structure and controlling the number of decoder channels is adopted. The experimental results on four data sets show that the proposed method can not only ensure high detection accuracy and robustness of the algorithm,but also meet the needs of real-time detection of patrol robots with detection speed above 40 f/s.展开更多

文摘Bird's-eye-view(BEV)perception is a core technology for autonomous driving systems.However,existing solutions face the dilemma of high costs associated with multimodal methods and limited performance of vision-only approaches.To address this issue,this paper proposes a framework named“a lightweight pure visual BEV perception method based on dual distillation of spatial-temporal knowledge”.This framework innovatively designs a lightweight vision-only student model based on Res Net,which leverages a dual distillation mechanism to learn from a powerful teacher model that integrates temporal information from both image and light detection and ranging(LiDAR)modalities.Specifically,we distill efficient multi-modal feature extraction and spatial fusion capabilities from the BEVFusion model,and distill advanced temporal information fusion and spatiotemporal attention mechanisms from the BEVFormer model.This dual distillation strategy enables the student model to achieve perception performance close to that of multi-modal models without relying on Li DAR.Experimental results on the nu Scenes dataset demonstrate that the proposed model significantly outperforms classical vision-only algorithms,achieves comparable performance to current state-of-the-art vision-only methods on the nu Scenes detection leaderboard in terms of both mean average precision(mAP)and the nu Scenes detection score(NDS)metrics,and exhibits notable advantages in inference computational efficiency.Although the proposed dual-teacher paradigm incurs higher offline training costs compared to single-model approaches,it yields a streamlined and highly efficient student model suitable for resource-constrained real-time deployment.This provides an effective pathway toward low-cost,high-performance autonomous driving perception systems.
文摘In this paper,a novel method of ultra-lightweight convolution neural network(CNN)design based on neural architecture search(NAS)and knowledge distillation(KD)is proposed.It can realize the automatic construction of the space target inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR)image recognition model with ultra-lightweight and high accuracy.This method introduces the NAS method into the radar image recognition for the first time,which solves the time-consuming and labor-consuming problems in the artificial design of the space target ISAR image automatic recognition model(STIIARM).On this basis,the NAS model’s knowledge is transferred to the student model with lower computational complexity by the flow of the solution procedure(FSP)distillation method.Thus,the decline of recognition accuracy caused by the direct compression of model structural parameters can be effectively avoided,and the ultralightweight STIIARM can be obtained.In the method,the Inverted Linear Bottleneck(ILB)and Inverted Residual Block(IRB)are firstly taken as each block’s basic structure in CNN.And the expansion ratio,output filter size,number of IRBs,and convolution kernel size are set as the search parameters to construct a hierarchical decomposition search space.Then,the recognition accuracy and computational complexity are taken as the objective function and constraint conditions,respectively,and the global optimization model of the CNN architecture search is established.Next,the simulated annealing(SA)algorithm is used as the search strategy to search out the lightweight and high accuracy STIIARM directly.After that,based on the three principles of similar block structure,the same corresponding channel number,and the minimum computational complexity,the more lightweight student model is designed,and the FSP matrix pairing between the NAS model and student model is completed.Finally,by minimizing the loss between the FSP matrix pairs of the NAS model and student model,the student model’s weight adjustment is completed.Thus the ultra-lightweight and high accuracy STIIARM is obtained.The proposed method’s effectiveness is verified by the simulation experiments on the ISAR image dataset of five types of space targets.

文摘There is no unified planning standard for unstructured roads,and the morphological structures of these roads are complex and varied.It is important to maintain a balance between accuracy and speed for unstructured road extraction models.Unstructured road extraction algorithms based on deep learning have problems such as high model complexity,high computational cost,and the inability to adapt to current edge computing devices.Therefore,it is best to use lightweight network models.Considering the need for lightweight models and the characteristics of unstructured roads with different pattern shapes,such as blocks and strips,a TMB(Triple Multi-Block)feature extraction module is proposed,and the overall structure of the TMBNet network is described.The TMB module was compared with SS-nbt,Non-bottleneck-1D,and other modules via experiments.The feasibility and effectiveness of the TMB module design were proven through experiments and visualizations.The comparison experiment,using multiple convolution kernel categories,proved that the TMB module can improve the segmentation accuracy of the network.The comparison with different semantic segmentation networks demonstrates that the TMBNet network has advantages in terms of unstructured road extraction.

文摘Target detection in low light background is one of the main tasks of night patrol robots for airport terminal.However,if some algorithms can run on a robot platform with limited computing resources,it is difficult for these algorithms to ensure the detection accuracy of human body in the airport terminal. A novel thermal infrared salient human detection model combined with thermal features called TFSHD is proposed. The TFSHD model is still based on U-Net,but the decoder module structure and model lightweight have been redesigned. In order to improve the detection accuracy of the algorithm in complex scenes,a fusion module composed of thermal branch and saliency branch is added to the decoder of the TFSHD model. Furthermore,a predictive loss function that is more sensitive to high temperature regions of the image is designed. Additionally,for the sake of reducing the computing resource requirements of the algorithm,a model lightweight scheme that includes simplifying the encoder network structure and controlling the number of decoder channels is adopted. The experimental results on four data sets show that the proposed method can not only ensure high detection accuracy and robustness of the algorithm,but also meet the needs of real-time detection of patrol robots with detection speed above 40 f/s.

文摘Significant advancements have been achieved in the field of Single Image Super-Resolution(SISR)through the utilization of Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)to attain state-of-the-art performance.Recent efforts have explored the incorporation of Transformers to augment network performance in SISR.However,the high computational cost of Transformers makes them less suitable for deployment on lightweight devices.Moreover,the majority of enhancements for CNNs rely predominantly on small spatial convolutions,thereby neglecting the potential advantages of large kernel convolution.In this paper,the authors propose a Multi-Perception Large Kernel convNet(MPLKN)which delves into the exploration of large kernel convolution.Specifically,the authors have architected a Multi-Perception Large Kernel(MPLK)module aimed at extracting multi-scale features and employ a stepwise feature fusion strategy to seamlessly integrate these features.In addition,to enhance the network's capacity for nonlinear spatial information processing,the authors have designed a Spatial-Channel Gated Feed-forward Network(SCGFN)that is capable of adapting to feature interactions across both spatial and channel dimensions.Experimental results demonstrate that MPLKN outperforms other lightweight image super-resolution models while maintaining a minimal number of parameters and FLOPs.

文摘There is a problem of real-time detection difficulty in road surface damage detection. This paper proposes an improved lightweight model based on you only look once version 5(YOLOv5). Firstly, this paper fully utilized the convolutional neural network(CNN) + ghosting bottleneck(G_bneck) architecture to reduce redundant feature maps. Afterwards, we upgraded the original upsampling algorithm to content-aware reassembly of features(CARAFE) and increased the receptive field. Finally, we replaced the spatial pyramid pooling fast(SPPF) module with the basic receptive field block(Basic RFB) pooling module and added dilated convolution. After comparative experiments, we can see that the number of parameters and model size of the improved algorithm in this paper have been reduced by nearly half compared to the YOLOv5s. The frame rate per second(FPS) has been increased by 3.25 times. The mean average precision(m AP@0.5: 0.95) has increased by 8%—17% compared to other lightweight algorithms.

文摘Vision-based relative pose estimation plays a pivotal role in various space missions.Deep learning enhances monocular spacecraft pose estimation,but high computational demands necessitate model simplification for onboard systems.In this paper,we aim to achieve an optimal balance between accuracy and computational efficiency.We present a Perspective-n-Point(PnP)based method for spacecraft pose estimation,leveraging lightweight neural networks to localize semantic keypoints and reduce computational load.Since the accuracy of keypoint localization is closely related to the heatmap resolution,we devise an efficient upsampling module to increase the resolution of heatmaps with minimal overhead.Furthermore,the heatmaps predicted by the lightweight models tend to show high-level noise.To tackle this issue,we propose a weighting strategy by analyzing the statistical characteristics of predicted semantic keypoints and substantially improve the pose estimation accuracy.The experiments carried out on the SPEED dataset underscore the prospect of our method in engineering applications.We dramatically reduce the model parameters to 0.7 M,merely 2.5%of that required by the top-performing method,and achieve lower pose estimation error and better real-time performance.
