A refined small-target model based on YOLOv5s for accurate insulator defect detection in complex environments
Insulators are critical components that directly determine the secure operation of power systems. Prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor environments renders them susceptible to typical defects, including breakage and missing components. Insulator inspection images captured in field scenarios are commonly characterized by...
