Optimization of YOLOv7 Based on PConv, SE Attention and Wise-IoU

With the rapid development of deep learning technology, object detection algorithms have made significant breakthroughs in the field of computer vision. However, due to the complexity and computational requirements of deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), these models face many challenges in practical applications, especially on resource-constrained edge devices. To address this problem, researchers have proposed many lightweight methods that aim to reduce the model size and computational complexity while maintaining high performance. The popularity of mobile devices and embedded systems has led to an increasing demand for lightweight models. However, existing lightweight methods often lead to accuracy loss, limiting their feasibility in practical applications. Therefore, how to realize the light weight of the model while maintaining high accuracy has become an urgent problem to be solved. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a lightweight YOLOv7 method based on PConv, Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) attention mechanism and Wise-IoU (WIoU), which we refer to as YOLOv7-PSW. PConv can effectively reduce the number of parameters and computational complexity. The SE can help the model focus on important feature information, thereby improving performance. WIoU is introduced to measure the similarity between the detection box and the Ground Truth, so that the model can effectively reduce the False Positive rate. By applying these advanced techniques to the YOLOv7, we achieve a lightweight model while maintaining a high detection accuracy. Experimental results on PASCAL VOC dataset show that YOLOv7-PSW performs better than the original YOLOv7 on object detection tasks. The number of parameters is reduced by 12.3%, FLOPs is reduced by 18.86%, and the accuracy is improved by about 0.5%. While the detection accuracy is not decreased or even slightly improved, the number of FLOPs and parameters is greatly reduced, which realizes lightweight to a certain extent. The proposed method can provide new ideas and directions for the subsequent research on lightweight object detection, and is expected to promote its application on edge devices. Meanwhile, YOLOv7-PSW can also be applied to other computer vision tasks to improve its performance and efficiency. In summary, the proposed YOLOv7-PSW lightweight method realizes the light weight of the model while maintaining high accuracy. This is of great significance for promoting the application of object detection algorithms on edge devices.

Fault Diagnosis for Wind Turbine Flange Bolts Based on One-Dimensional Depthwise Separable Convolutions

In this paper, a new bolt fault diagnosis method is developed to solve the fault diagnosis problem of wind turbine flange bolts using one-dimensional depthwise separable convolutions. The main idea is to use a one-dimensional convolutional neural network model to classify and identify the acoustic vibration signals of bolts, which represent different bolt damage states. Through the method of knock test and modal simulation, it is concluded that the damage state of wind turbine flange bolt is related to the natural frequency distribution of acoustic vibration signal. It is found that the bolt damage state affects the modal shape of the structure, and then affects the natural frequency distribution of the bolt vibration signal. Therefore, the damage state can be identified by identifying the natural frequency distribution of the bolt acoustic vibration signal. In the present one-dimensional depth-detachable convolutional neural network model, the one-dimensional vector is first convolved into multiple channels, and then each channel is separately learned by depth-detachable convolution, which can effectively improve the feature quality and the effect of data classification. From the perspective of the realization mechanism of convolution operation, the depthwise separable convolution operation has fewer parameters and faster computing speed, making it easier to build lightweight models and deploy them to mobile devices.

SSCRB: Predicting circRNA-RBP Interaction Sites Using a Sequence and Structural Feature-Based Attention Model.

The prediction of interaction sites between circular RNA (circRNA) and RNA binding proteins (RBPs) is crucial for regulating diseases and discovering new treatment approaches. Computational models have been widely used to predict circRNA-RBP interaction sites due to the availability of genome-wide circRNA binding event data. However, efficiently obtaining multi-scale circRNA features to improve prediction accuracy remains a challenging problem. In this study, we propose SSCRB, a lightweight model for predicting circRNA-RBP interaction sites. Our model extracts both sequence and structural features of circRNA and incorporates multi-scale features through the attention mechanism. Furthermore, we develop an ensemble model by combining multiple submodels to enhance predictive performance and generalizability. We evaluate SSCRB on 37 circRNA datasets and compare it with other state-of-the-art methods. The average AUC of SSCRB is 97.66%, demonstrating its efficiency and robustness. SSCRB outperforms other methods in terms of prediction accuracy while requiring significantly fewer computational resources.

A Two-Stage Approach to the Study of Potato Disease Severity Classification

Early blight and late blight are two of the most prevalent and severe diseases affecting potato crops. Efficient and accurate grading of their severity is crucial for effective disease management. However, existing grading methods are limited to assessing the severity of each disease independently, often resulting in low recognition accuracy and slow grading processes. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel two-stage approach for the rapid severity grading of both early blight and late blight in potato plants. In this research, two lightweight models were developed: Coformer and SegCoformer. In the initial stage, Coformer efficiently categorizes potato leaves into three classes: those afflicted by early blight, those afflicted by late blight, and healthy leaves. In the subsequent stage, SegCoformer accurately segments leaves, lesions, and backgrounds within the images obtained from the first stage. Furthermore, it assigns severity labels to the identified leaf lesions. To validate the accuracy and processing speed of the proposed methods, we conduct experimental comparisons. The experimental results indicate that Coformer achieves a classification accuracy as high as 97.86%, while SegCoformer achieves an mIoU of 88.50% for semantic segmentation. The combined accuracy of this method reaches 84%, outperforming the Sit + Unet_V accuracy by 1%. Notably, this approach achieves heightened accuracy while maintaining a faster processing speed, completing image processing in just 258.26 ms. This research methodology effectively enhances agricultural production efficiency.

The model boasts an average detection time of 0.0172 s per image, with a compressed size of 10 MB. Comparative experiments demonstrate the superior performance of our refined model over DenseNet121, ResNet50_vd, Xception65, and EfficientNetB1. This refined model not only introduces an approach to Chinese herbal medicine image recognition but also provides a practical solution for lightweight models in mobile applications.

Research is conducted on a lightweight model for apple defect recognition, and an improved VEW-YOLOv8n method is proposed. The backbone network incorporates a lightweight, re-parameterization VanillaC2f module, reducing both complexity and the number of parameters, and it employs an extended activation function to enhance the model’s nonlinear expression capability. In the neck network, an Efficient-Neck lightweight structure, developed using the lightweight modules and augmented with a channel shuffling strategy, decreases the computational load while ensuring comprehensive feature information fusion. The model’s robustness and generalization ability are further enhanced by employing the WIoU bounding box loss function, evaluating the quality of anchor frames using outlier metrics, and incorporating a dynamically updated gradient gain assignment strategy.

Real-time and lightweight detection of grape diseases based on Fusion Transformer YOLO.

Grapes are prone to various diseases throughout their growth cycle, and the failure to promptly control these diseases can result in reduced production and even complete crop failure. Therefore, effective disease control is essential for maximizing grape yield. Accurate disease identification plays a crucial role in this process. In this paper, we proposed a real-time and lightweight detection model called Fusion Transformer YOLO for 4 grape diseases detection. The primary source of the dataset comprises RGB images acquired from plantations situated in North China. Firstly, we introduce a lightweight high-performance VoVNet, which utilizes ghost convolutions and learnable downsampling layer. This backbone is further improved by integrating effective squeeze and excitation blocks and residual connections to the OSA module. These enhancements contribute to improved detection accuracy while maintaining a lightweight network. Secondly, an improved dual-flow PAN+FPN structure with Real-time Transformer is adopted in the neck component, by incorporating 2D position embedding and a single-scale Transformer Encoder into the last feature map. This modification enables real-time performance and improved accuracy in detecting small targets. Finally, we adopt the Decoupled Head based on the improved Task Aligned Predictor in the head component, which balances accuracy and speed. Experimental results demonstrate that FTR-YOLO achieves the high performance across various evaluation metrics, with a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 90.67%, a Frames Per Second (FPS) of 44, and a parameter size of 24.5M. The FTR-YOLO presented in this paper provides a real-time and lightweight solution for the detection of grape diseases. This model effectively assists farmers in detecting grape diseases.

WildARe-YOLO: A lightweight and efficient wild animal recognition model

For the protection of endangered species and successful wildlife population monitoring, wild animal recognition is essential. While deep learning models like YOLOv5 have shown promise in real-time object recognition, their practical applicability may be constrained by their high processing requirements. In this paper, we suggest a faster and lighter version of YOLOv5s for wild animal recognition. To lower computational costs for model parameters and floating-point operations (FLOPs) for the backbone, our suggested model includes Mobile Bottleneck Block modules and an improved StemBlock. We also use Focal-EIoU as a loss function to gauge the accuracy of the predicted bounding boxes during inference and employ a BiFPN-based neck. We tested our technique on three datasets, including Wild Animal Facing Extinction, Fishmarket, and MS COCO 2017. Additionally, our technique is compared with state-of-the-art deep learning models, and from the baseline model we recorded a 17.65% increase in FPS, 28.55% model parameters reduction, and 50.92% in FLOPs reduction. Furthermore, our model has a faster model loading time, which is critical for deployment in remote areas. This enables real-time species recognition on basic hardware, aiding conservation efforts through rapid analysis. The model advances deep learning in ecology by balancing efficiency with performance.

Feasibility of video-based real-time nystagmus tracking: a lightweight deep learning model approach using ocular object segmentation.

Eye movement tests remain significantly underutilized in emergency departments and primary healthcare units, despite their superior diagnostic sensitivity compared to neuroimaging modalities for the differential diagnosis of acute vertigo. This underutilization may be attributed to a potential lack of awareness regarding these tests and the absence of appropriate tools for detecting nystagmus. This study aimed to develop a nystagmus measurement algorithm using a lightweight deep-learning model that recognizes the ocular regions. The deep learning model was used to segment the eye regions, detect blinking, and determine the pupil center. The model was trained using images extracted from video clips of a clinical battery of eye movement tests and synthesized images reproducing real eye movement scenarios using virtual reality. Each eye image was annotated with segmentation masks of the sclera, iris, and pupil, with gaze vectors of the pupil center for eye tracking. We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of model performance and its execution speeds in comparison to various alternative models using metrics that are suitable for the tasks. The mean Intersection over Union values of the segmentation model ranged from 0.90 to 0.97 for different classes (sclera, iris, and pupil) across types of images (synthetic vs. real-world images). Additionally, the mean absolute error for eye tracking was 0.595 for real-world data and the F1 score for blink detection was ≥ 0.95, which indicates our model is performing at a very high level of accuracy. Execution speed was also the most rapid for ocular object segmentation under the same hardware condition as compared to alternative models. The prediction for horizontal and vertical nystagmus in real eye movement video revealed high accuracy with a strong correlation between the observed and predicted values (r = 0.9949 for horizontal and r = 0.9950 for vertical; both p < 0.05). The potential of our model, which can automatically segment ocular regions and track nystagmus in real time from eye movement videos, holds significant promise for emergency settings or remote intervention within the field of neurotology.

Using an improved lightweight YOLOv8 model for real-time detection of multi-stage apple fruit in complex orchard environments

For the purpose of monitoring apple fruits effectively throughout the entire growth period in smart orchards. A lightweight model named YOLOv8n-ShuffleNetv2-Ghost-SE was proposed. The ShuffleNetv2 basic modules and down-sampling modules were alternately connected, replacing the Backbone of YOLOv8n model. The Ghost modules replaced the Conv modules and the C2fGhost modules replaced the C2f modules in the Neck part of the YOLOv8n. ShuffleNetv2 reduced the memory access cost through channel splitting operations. The Ghost module combined linear and non-linear convolutions to reduce the network computation cost. The Wise-IoU (WIoU) replaced the CIoU for calculating the bounding box regression loss, which dynamically adjusted the anchor box quality threshold and gradient gain allocation strategy, optimizing the size and position of predicted bounding boxes. The Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) was embedded in the Backbone and Neck part of YOLOv8n to enhance the representation ability of feature maps. The algorithm ensured high precision while having small model size and fast detection speed, which facilitated model migration and deployment. Using 9652 images validated the effectiveness of the model. The YOLOv8n-ShuffleNetv2-Ghost-SE model achieved Precision of 94.1%, Recall of 82.6%, mean Average Precision of 91.4%, model size of 2.6 MB, parameters of 1.18 M, FLOPs of 3.9 G, and detection speed of 39.37 fps. The detection speeds on the Jetson Xavier NX development board were 3.17 fps. Comparisons with advanced models including Faster R-CNN, SSD, YOLOv5s, YOLOv7‑tiny, YOLOv8s, YOLOv8n, MobileNetv3_small-Faster, MobileNetv3_small-Ghost, ShuflleNetv2-Faster, ShuflleNetv2-Ghost, ShuflleNetv2-Ghost-CBAM, ShuflleNetv2-Ghost-ECA, and ShuflleNetv2-Ghost-CA demonstrated that the method achieved smaller model and faster detection speed. The research can provide reference for the development of smart devices in apple orchards.

Identification of Olives Using In-Field Hyperspectral Imaging with Lightweight Models.

During the growing season, olives progress through nine different phenological stages, starting with bud development and ending with senescence. During their lifespan, olives undergo changes in their external color and chemical properties. To tackle these properties, we used hyperspectral imaging during the growing season of the olives. The objective of this study was to develop a lightweight model capable of identifying olives in the hyperspectral images using their spectral information. To achieve this goal, we utilized the hyperspectral imaging of olives while they were still on the tree and conducted this process throughout the entire growing season directly in the field without artificial light sources. The images were taken on-site every week from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. UTC to avoid light saturation and glitters. The data were analyzed using training and testing classifiers, including Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Support Vector Machine on labeled datasets. The Logistic Regression model showed the best balance between classification success rate, size, and inference time, achieving a 98% F1-score with less than 1 KB in parameters. A reduction in size was achieved by analyzing the wavelengths that were critical in the decision making, reducing the dimensionality of the hypercube. So, with this novel model, olives in a hyperspectral image can be identified during the season, providing data to enhance a farmer's decision-making process through further automatic applications.

Intelligently Quantifying the Entire Irregular Dental Structure

Quantitative analysis of irregular anatomical structures is crucial in oral medicine, but clinicians often typically measure only several representative indicators within the structure as references. Deep learning semantic segmentation offers the potential for entire quantitative analysis. However, challenges persist, including segmentation difficulties due to unclear boundaries and acquiring measurement landmarks for clinical needs in entire quantitative analysis. Taking the palatal alveolar bone as an example, we proposed an artificial intelligence measurement tool for the entire quantitative analysis of irregular dental structures. To expand the applicability, we have included lightweight networks with fewer parameters and lower computational demands. Our approach finally used the lightweight model LU-Net, addressing segmentation challenges caused by unclear boundaries through a compensation module. Additional enamel segmentation was conducted to establish a measurement coordinate system. Ultimately, we presented the entire quantitative information within the structure in a manner that meets clinical needs. The tool achieved excellent segmentation results, manifested by high Dice coefficients (0.934 and 0.949), intersection over union (0.888 and 0.907), and area under the curve (0.943 and 0.949) for palatal alveolar bone and enamel in the test set. In subsequent measurements, the tool visualizes the quantitative information within the target structure by scatter plots. When comparing the measurements against representative indicators, the tool’s measurement results show no statistically significant difference from the ground truth, with small mean absolute error, root mean squared error, and errors interval. Bland-Altman plots and intraclass correlation coefficients indicate the satisfactory agreement compared with manual measurements. We proposed a novel intelligent approach to address the entire quantitative analysis of irregular image structures in the clinical setting. This contributes to enabling clinicians to swiftly and comprehensively grasp structural features, facilitating the design of more personalized treatment plans for different patients, enhancing clinical efficiency and treatment success rates in turn.

Exploiting domain knowledge to reduce data requirements for battery health monitoring

Rechargeable batteries are becoming increasingly significant in decarbonising the world. For their widespread usage, to monitor and predict the battery health status has been essential. Although machine learning has the potential to tackle this issue, considerable degradation tests are required for model training, leading to prohibitive costs and labour. Here, we introduce a novel approach to constructing health monitoring models by fusing battery degradation knowledge with deep learning, using a substantially reduced amount of degradation data. We employ a lightweight and interpretable model to produce synthetic charging curves from highly limited realistic data. Subsequently, a transfer learning technique is implemented to train a convolutional neural network using both types of data and alleviate their gap. By employing only 8 realistic charging curves to develop the model, the method can precisely estimate the maximum and remaining capacities from 300 mV charging segments. The root mean square errors for these estimations are below 12.42 mAh. Additional 50 validation cases confirm that the proposed method can not only reduce the required degradation data but also shorten the input window length. Furthermore, it can be generalised and applied to different battery types under different operating conditions. This work highlights the promise of employing domain expertise to significantly decrease the amount of battery testing required for monitoring battery health.

Unsupervised deep learning framework for temperature-compensated damage assessment using ultrasonic guided waves on edge device

Fueled by the rapid development of machine learning (ML) and greater access to cloud computing and graphics processing units, various deep learning based models have been proposed for improving performance of ultrasonic guided wave structural health monitoring (GW-SHM) systems, especially to counter complexity and heterogeneity in data due to varying environmental factors (e.g., temperature) and types of damages. Such models typically comprise of millions of trainable parameters, and therefore add to cost of deployment due to requirements of cloud connectivity and processing, thus limiting the scale of deployment of GW-SHM. In this work, we propose an alternative solution that leverages TinyML framework for development of light-weight ML models that could be directly deployed on embedded edge devices. The utility of our solution is illustrated by presenting an unsupervised learning framework for damage detection in honeycomb composite sandwich structure with disbond and delamination type of damages, validated using data generated by finite element simulations and experiments performed at various temperatures in the range 0–90 °C. We demonstrate a fully-integrated solution using a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA for data acquisition and control, and edge-inference of damage. Despite the limited number of features, the lightweight model shows reasonably high accuracy, thereby enabling detection of small size defects with improved sensitivity on an edge device for online GW-SHM.

A Lightweight Model for Malicious Code Classification Based on Structural Reparameterisation and Large Convolutional Kernels

With the advancement of adversarial techniques for malicious code, malevolent attackers have propagated numerous malicious code variants through shell coding and code obfuscation. Addressing the current issues of insufficient accuracy and efficiency in malicious code classification methods based on deep learning, this paper introduces a detection strategy for malicious code, uniting Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Transformers. This approach utilizes deep neural architecture, incorporating a novel fusion module to reparametrize the structure, which mitigates memory access costs by eliminating residual connections within the network.

Empirical evidence substantiates this method has improved accuracy and the most recent malicious code detection technologies.

A Lightweight, Effective, and Efficient Model for Label Aggregation in Crowdsourcing

Due to the presence of noise in crowdsourced labels, label aggregation (LA) has become a standard procedure for post-processing these labels. LA methods estimate true labels from crowdsourced labels by modeling worker quality. However, most existing LA methods are iterative in nature. They require multiple passes through all crowdsourced labels, jointly and iteratively updating true labels and worker qualities until a termination condition is met. As a result, these methods are burdened with high space and time complexities, which restrict their applicability in scenarios where scalability and online aggregation are essential. Furthermore, defining a suitable termination condition for iterative algorithms can be challenging. In this article, we view LA as a dynamic system and represent it as a Dynamic Bayesian Network. From this dynamic model, we derive two lightweight and scalable algorithms: LAonepassand LAtwopass. These algorithms can efficiently and effectively estimate worker qualities and true labels by traversing all labels at most twice, thereby eliminating the need for explicit termination conditions and multiple traversals over the crowdsourced labels. Due to their dynamic nature, the proposed algorithms are also capable of performing label aggregation online. We provide theoretical proof of the convergence property of the proposed algorithms and bound the error of the estimated worker qualities. Furthermore, we analyze the space and time complexities of our proposed algorithms, demonstrating their equivalence to those of majority voting. Through experiments conducted on 20 real-world datasets, we demonstrate that our proposed algorithms can effectively and efficiently aggregate labels in both offline and online settings, even though they traverse all labels at most twice.
