A scalable multi-modal learning fruit detection algorithm for dynamic environments by Liang Mao, Liang Mao, Zihao Guo, Mingzhe Liu, Yue Li, Linlin Wang, Jie Li

“…IntroductionTo enhance the detection of litchi fruits in natural scenes, address challenges such as dense occlusion and small target identification, this paper proposes a novel multimodal target detection method, denoted as YOLOv5-Litchi.MethodsInitially, the Neck layer network of YOLOv5s is simplified by changing its FPN+PAN structure to an FPN structure and increasing the number of detection heads from 3 to 5. Additionally, the detection heads with resolutions of 80 × 80 pixels and 160 × 160 pixels are replaced by TSCD detection heads to enhance the model's ability to detect small targets. …”
