A Lightweight Person Detector for Surveillance Footage Based on YOLOv8n by Qicheng Wang, Guoqiang Feng, Zongzhe Li

“…A series of experiments demonstrated that, due to these improvements, the proposed lightweight model achieved a reduction of nearly 10% in parameter size and 5% in the floating-point computational cost compared to the original YOLOv8n. Additionally, on a custom surveillance dataset, the model shows a 1.4% improvement in mAP@0.5:0.95, and on a more complex subset of the PASVOC public dataset, the model achieved a 2.8% improvement in mAP@0.5 and a 1.2% improvement in mAP@0.5:0.95, proving the high accuracy and generalization ability of the improved lightweight model.…”
