Automatic Detection and Identification of Underdense Meteors Based on YOLOv8n-BP Model by Siyuan Chen, Guobin Yang, Chunhua Jiang, Tongxin Liu, Xuhui Liu

“…Limited by the labeling error of the dataset, YOLOv8 is not precise enough in recognizing the head and tail of meteors in the radar echograms, which may result in the extraction of imperfect echoes. Utilizing the Fresnel oscillation properties of meteor echoes, a BP network based on a Gaussian activation function is designed in this paper to enable it to detect meteor head and tail positions more accurately. …”
