description In order to solve the problems of low accuracy of the current mainstream target detection algorithms in identifying small target ships, complex background interference such as coastline buildings and trees, and the influence of ship occlusion on ship target detection, an inland river ship detection method based on improved YOLOv10n: CDS-YOLO is proposed under the premise of keeping the model lightweight. Firstly, the CAA attention module is introduced into the Backbone network, and the C2f_CAA module is constructed at the same time to enhance the features of the central region and improve the understanding ability of complex scenes. Then, the Conv of the Backbone network was replaced with DBB to enhance the expression ability of a single convolution and enrich the feature space. Finally, GSConv and VovGSCSP in Slim-Neck are introduced into the Neck network to optimize the network architecture, reduce part of the model complexity, and further improve the performance of the model. Experimental results show that compared with YOLOv10n, CDS-YOLO has the detection accuracy, recall rate and mAP@0.5 increased by 3.7%, 2% and 0.9% respectively, reaching 98.4%, 97.4% and 99.2% respectively, indicating that CDS-YOLO has good accuracy and robustness in the detection and classification of inshore ships.
