Lightweight container number recognition based on deep learning
摘要
The efficient recognition of container number in a complex natural environment is of great significance in container transportation process. However, the number of parameters and calculation amount of the algorithms based on deep learning are huge, making it difficult to apply them to the low-cost equipment. In response to this challenge, we propose an improved lightweight algorithm ACCR-YOLOv7 based on YOLOv7-Tiny, which is suitable for container number recognition in various complex environments. First, we propose a lightweight extended efficient layer aggregation networks (ELAN), namely G-ELAN, to enhance the feature extraction capability. Secondly, an efficient Spatial Pyramid Pooling Module (ESPPM) is designed to increase the receptive field of the network for detecting targets. In addition, we redesign the original neck structure by reducing the output layer that is insensitive to large targets and replacing all
