Yolov8小目标检测-添加模块改进-实验记录
简介，本文通过结合了一些先进的算法改进了yolov8小目标检测能力，以下是一些记录。
数据集：足球比赛数据集，里面只有两个类别足球和人。
import os
from ultralytics import YOLOmodel = YOLO('yolov8n.yaml') # 后缀n就调用n的模型# Train the model
model.train(data='./ultralytics/datasets/soccer.yaml', epochs=100, imgsz=640)# val
metrics = model.val() # no arguments needed, dataset and settings remembered
metrics.box.map # map50-95
metrics.box.map50 # map50
metrics.box.map75 # map75
metrics.box.maps # # predict
# model.predict('datasets/soccernet/tracking/images/test/SNMOT-132/img1', save=True, imgsz=640, conf=0.5)
# results = model('datasets/soccernet/tracking/images/train/SNMOT-061/img1/')
# for result in results:
# boxes = result.data # Boxes object for bbox outputs
# masks = result.masks # Masks object for segmentation masks outputs
# keypoints = result.keypoints # Keypoints object for pose outputs
# probs = result.probs # Class probabilities for classification outputs# export
# model.export(format='onnx')以下是我实验的一些记录：持续更新中~
实验1. baseline: 使用yolov8n.yaml训练
map: 0.371
person: 0.648
soccer: 0.095
实验2. 使用yolov8n-p2.yaml训练，四个头预测目标，大尺寸的特征图P2也预测目标。足球提升4%。
复杂度：277 layers, 3354144 parameters, 3354128 gradients, 17.3 GFLOPs
map: 0.387
person: 0.639
soccer: 0.135
实验3. 使用yolov8-p2-exp1-spdconv.yaml训练(注意调用其中的n模型需要这样调用model = YOLO('yolov8n-p2-exp1-spdconv.yaml'))，在yolov8后加n即可。把conv修改成spdconv，减少步长和池化对小目标检测的影响，原论文链接 。
添加新模块的步骤如下：
- 1. 在ultralytics/nn/modules/conv.py下添加，space_to_depth。
- 2. 在ultralytics/nn/modules/init.py添加模块
- 3. 在ultralytics/nn/tasks.py添加模块
- 4. 在ultralytics/nn/tasks.py，添加通道数判断，用于后续提取指定序号的模块的输出。
最后新建配置文件yolov8-p2-exp1-spdconv.yaml，放置ultralytics/models/v8/yolov8-p2-exp1-spdconv.yaml，附上我的配置

- 添加模块步骤与上述相似，这里就贴几张图。
