EDFW-YOLO:enhancing YOLOv8 for quantitative analysis of surface defects in hot-rolled strips
简介：Detecting surface defects on steel,especially in complex loading environments,poses significant challenges.In response,we introduce EDFW-YOLO,an algorithm built upon you only look once version 8(YOLOv8)specifically designed for detecting surface defects on hot-rolled steel strips.Our method enhances multi-scale feature fusion through the incorporation of the multi-scale conversion module(C2f-EMSC).Additionally,we elevate detection accuracy by integrating the dynamic head target detection head,the focal modulation module,and the WIoU_Loss bounding box regression function.Experimental results on the NEU-DET dataset demonstrate that our op-timized YOLOv8 model achieves the mean average precision(mAP)of 77.7％,with a 5.2％increase in network constraint rate.To adapt to different operating environments,it further improved the mAP to 78.5％through data enhancement.Verification results on PCB defect data show that the algorithm has excellent generalization ability.This optimized algorithm significantly improves the extraction and fu-sion of surface defect features on hot-rolled strip steel and serves as a valuable reference for surface defect detection in alloy materials.展开
