Research on Small Object Detection in Intelligent Driving Based on Data Mining
Small object detection is an important research topic in the field of intelligent driving safety,espe-cially in the detection of traffic signs,which is a key link in the perception of intelligent driving environ-ments.However,due to the long-distance recognition of traffic signs and the small size of the target,prob-lems such as missed detection or low recognition accuracy often occur.Based on the Faster R-CNN algo-rithm,the backbone network VGG16 is replaced with ResNet50,a hybrid attention mechanism is integrated into the backbone residual structure,and a muti-scale sliding windows is used to improve the RPN net-work.Feature maps are generated and fused at different depth convolution layers.The improved algorithm has increased the detection accuracy mAP from 85.99% to 94.38%,effectively improving the ability to recognize small targets of traffic signs in intelligent driving scenarios.
