Resumen
Pedestrian detection has always been a difficult and hot spot in computer vision research. At the same time, pedestrian detection technology plays an important role in many applications, such as intelligent transportation and security monitoring. In complex scenes, pedestrian detection often faces some challenges, such as low detection accuracy and misdetection due to small target sizes and scale variations. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a pedestrian detection network PT-YOLO based on the YOLOv5. The pedestrian detection network PT-YOLO consists of the YOLOv5 network, the squeeze-and-excitation module (SE), the weighted bi-directional feature pyramid module (BiFPN), the coordinate convolution (coordconv) module and the wise intersection over union loss function (WIoU). The SE module in the backbone allows it to focus on the important features of pedestrians and improves accuracy. The weighted BiFPN module enhances the fusion of multi-scale pedestrian features and information transfer, which can improve fusion efficiency. The prediction head design uses the WIoU loss function to reduce the regression error. The coordconv module allows the network to better perceive the location information in the feature map. The experimental results show that the pedestrian detection network PT-YOLO is more accurate compared with other target detection methods in pedestrian detection and can effectively accomplish the task of pedestrian detection in complex scenes.
