摘要

Quality assurance in industrial manufacturing relies heavily on PCB defect detection, yet it faces challenges such as complex backgrounds, minute target sizes, and significant scale variations. To address these challenges, we propose an enhanced adaptive multi-scale object detection model built upon RT-DETR, termed EAM-DETR. Firstly, an improved Faster-ELA Block is introduced, which reduces the model’s computational overhead while simultaneously enhancing detection efficiency. Secondly, we introduce the AIFI-ASSA module, which integrates adaptive sparse self-attention (ASSA) to prioritize salient features within clutter-filled backgrounds. Finally, we develop a multi-scale collaborative feature pyramid (MCFP) that preserves fine-grained features and substantially improves detection of small targets across various scales. On the PKU-Market-PCB dataset, EAM-DETR reaches 97.1% mAP50 with a throughput of 74.9 FPS, exceeding the RT-DETR baseline by 3.0% in accuracy and 16.5% in inference speed. These results demonstrate that EAM-DETR significantly accelerates inference while maintaining high accuracy, confirming its practical value and robustness for industrial PCB defect inspection.
