Green Apple Detection Method Based on Multidimensional Feature Extraction Network Model and Transformer Module by Wei Ji, Kelong Zhai, Bo Xu, Jiawen Wu

“…The fusion of the two modules enhances the model’s ability to detect objects of different scales, thereby improving the accuracy of near-color fruit detection. At the same time, in order to solve the problems of slow convergence speed and large calculation amount of the basic network model, the convergence speed of the overall network model is improved by replacing the attention mechanism of Transformer. …”
