A Lightweight YOLOv8s Algorithm for Ceiling Fan Blade Defect Detection With Optimized Pruning and Knowledge Distillation by Qinyuan Huang, Chen Fan, Yuqi Sun, Jiaxiong Huang, Wengziyang Jiang

“…While industrial ceiling fans play a vital role in maintaining efficient airflow and system stability within factory settings, surface defects on their blades that arise over time can disrupt their functionality and create safety hazards. Detecting these surface defects is crucial; however, accurate and rapid detection typically involves complex machine vision algorithms, such as You Only Look Once (YOLO) networks, that require considerable computing resources, which contradicts the industry&#x2019;s preference for simpler algorithms that can be deployed using low-cost computing power. …”
