Popis: Aiming at the problem of high-precision detection of AtoN (Aids to Navigation, AtoN) in the complex inland river environment, in the absence of sufficient AtoN image types to train classifiers, this paper proposes an automatic AtoN detection algorithm Aids-to-Navigation-YOLOv4 (AN-YOLOv4) based on improved YOLOv4 (You Only Look Once, Yolo). Firstly, aiming at the problem of an insufficient number of existing AtoN datasets, the Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) is used to expand and enhance the AtoN image dataset. Then, aiming at the problem of small target recognition accuracy, the image pyramid is used to multi-scale zoom the dataset. Finally, the K-means clustering algorithm is used to correct the candidate box of AN-YOLOv4. The test on the test dataset shows that the improvement effect of AN-YOLOv4 is obvious. The accuracy rate of small targets is 92%, and the average accuracy (mAP) of eight different types of AtoN is 92%, which is 14% and 13% higher than the original YOLOv4, respectively. This research has important theoretical significance and reference value for the intelligent perception of the navigation environment under the intelligent shipping system.
