An improved YOLOv5 method for large objects detection with multi-scale feature cross-layer fusion network

作者:

Highlights:

• We proposed Multi-scale Feature Cross-layer Fusion Network (M-FCFN).

• Two completely different feature scales are added as the output.

• We propose an EIOU k-means Autoanchor calculation.

• The problem of missed and false detections for large objects is improved.

• Our method on the large-scale mAP@[0.5:0.95] is 5.4% higher than YOLOv5_S.
