The IT-YOLO UAV infrared target detection network adopts the basic structure of Tiny-YOLOV3. According to the characteristics of infrared images, it extracts shallow convolutional layer features to improve the detection ability of small infrared targets. It uses a single-channel convolution kernel to reduce the amount of calculation and detect Part of the detection method based on the CenterNet structure is used to reduce the false detection rate and improve the detection speed.

[0050] For the feature extraction of long-distance low-resolution infrared small targets, the shallow convolution Conv4 layer of the Tiny-YOLOV3 target detection network can more effectively represent the semantic information of infrared small targets, ...

Embodiment 3

[0056] as attached Figure 1-5 , on the basis of Example 1, in the night environment, the infrared thermal imaging platform equipped with the UAV is used to shoot at low altitude and high altitude respectively, and the infrared images that are clear and available for identification and detection are collected from the top-down perspective, and 8000 infrared images are collected. Infrared thermal imaging images of night scenes from the perspective of UAVs are used as UAV infrared target detection datasets.

[0057] Divide the UAV infrared target detection data set into training set and test set according to the ratio of 5:1, use the YOLO-MARK tool to mark the two types of targets to be detected, pedestrians and vehicles; in the model training process, the images in the data set All samples are converted into images of 416×416 pixels. During training, 100 images are used as a batch for small batch training. A batch of images are trained, and the weights are updated once. The dec...
