Optimized YOLOv8 framework for intelligent rockfall detection on mountain roads by Peng Peng, Langchao Gao, Jiachun Li, Hongzhen Zhang

“…To enable efficient detection, this study proposes a rockfall detection system based on embedded technology and an improved Yolov8 algorithm, termed Yolov8-GCB. The algorithm enhances detection performance through the following optimizations: (1) integrating a lightweight DeepLabv3+ road segmentation module at the input stage to generate mask images, which effectively exclude non-road regions from interference; (2) replacing Conv convolution units in the backbone network with Ghost convolution units, significantly reducing model parameters and computational cost while improving inference speed; (3) introducing the CPCA (Channel Priori Convolution Attention) mechanism to strengthen the feature extraction capability for targets with diverse shapes; and (4) incorporating skip connections and weighted fusion in the Neck feature extraction network to enhance multi-scale object detection. …”

Water Supply Scheduling for Cross-basin Reservoir Groups Based on Improved Scheduling Diagram by ZHAO Siqi, XU Wei, CHEN Si, WANG Sufan, YANG Yi

“…To exploit the scheduling potential of cross-basin reservoir groups by employing runoff information,this paper proposes an improved reservoir scheduling diagram to retain simplicity and intuitiveness.Taking the Xiajiankou,Fengyan,and Nanpeng reservoirs in Banan District of Chongqing as an example,it adopts the POA algorithm to build a joint scheduling model of water diversion and water supply for the cross-basin reservoir groups by a simulation-optimization approach.Meanwhile,three scenarios of the current situation scheduling,optimized scheduling with conventional scheduling diagrams,and optimized scheduling with improved scheduling diagrams are set up to evaluate the water diversion and supply performance of reservoirs and analyze the influence of uncertainty runoff information on the scheduling performance.The results are as follows:① The improved scheduling diagram performs best in the long series scheduling,and it can increase the annual average water supply of the reservoir group by 6.87% and reduce the abandoned water by 87.58% compared with the current situation scheduling;② In a dry year,the method can reduce 486.3×10⁴ m³ of water shortage and increase 477.6×10⁴ m³ of water for power generation based on the current situation scheduling;③ When considering the runoff information uncertainty,the water supply of the improved scheduling diagram is 3.37% lower than the ideal case but is still 5.96% more than the conventional optimization.The results are conducive to making scientific decisions and improving the water supply effect.…”
