The DFD-YOLO Algorithm for Detecting Small-Scale Surface Damage on Mining Steel Ropes
To address the limitations of existing visual detection algorithms for mining wire ropes (MWR), including low detection accuracy, limited capability to recognize tiny defects, and high computational cost, we first employ NAFNet to mitigate motion blur in the input images. We then propose DFD-YOLO, an improved YOLOv11-b...
