Research on a CEF-YOLOv8n-Based Method for Small Object Detection in UAV Aerial Imagery
Highlights What are the main findings? A CEF-YOLOv8n model is proposed for small-object detection in UAV aerial images by introducing the CPF module into the YOLOv8n backbone to enhance feature extraction for low-resolution small objects. The FGFPN, FSFM, and LWSD modules are designed to improve multi-scale feature fus...
