Implementation of Intelligent Video Monitoring System for Gas Pipelines Based on Improved YOLOv8
An improved YOLOv8 algorithm,integrating the CBAM attention mechanism and a 4x down-sampling detection head,is proposed to tackle the prevalent challenge of limited capability in identifying intricate and diverse small and multi-scale targets in surveillance videos along gas pipelines.Generally speaking,the experimental results show that the improved algorithm has achieved respective performance index of 80.2%for accuracy,72.8%for recall rate,and 80.2%for mean average accuracy mAP@0.5,which are 1.9%,3.8%,and 1.6%higher than the original YOLOv8s algorithm respectively.To be spe-cific,the efficiency,accuracy,and timeliness of this system in monitoring the safety of gas pipelines have been validated through a case study on safety supervision of gas pipelines in a specific city,which serves as a certain technical basis for achieving the normalization,standardization and refinement of gas pipeline safety supervision.
