Title: A Novel YOLO-Based Deep Learning Technique for Crop Pest

Detection

SYNOPSIS

Abstract

Timely and effective pest detection is essential for agricultural production, facing
challenges such as complex backgrounds and a vast number of parameters. Seeking solutions
has become a pressing matter. This paper, based on the YOLOv5 algorithm, developed the
PestLite model. The model surpasses previous spatial pooling methods with our uniquely
designed Multi-Level Spatial Pyramid Pooling (MTSPPF). Using a lightweight unit, it
integrates convolution, normalization, and activation operations. It excels in capturing multi-
scale features, ensuring rich extraction of key information at various scales. Notably, MTSPPF
not only enhances detection accuracy but also reduces the parameter size, making it ideal for
lightweight pest detection models. Additionally, we introduced the Involution and Efficient
Channel Attention (ECA) attention mechanisms to enhance contextual understanding. We also
replaced traditional upsampling with Content-Aware ReAssembly of FEatures (CARAFE),
which enable the model to achieve higher mean average precision in detection. Testing on a
pest dataset showed improved accuracy while reducing parameter size. The mAP50 increased
from 87.9% to 90.7%, and the parameter count decreased from 7.03 M to 6.09 M. We further
validated the PestLite model using the IP102 dataset, and on the other hand, we conducted
comparisons with mainstream models. Furthermore, we visualized the detection targets. The
results indicate that the PestLite model provides an effective solution for real-time target
detection in agricultural pests.

Objectives

• The objective of crop pest detection is to identify and monitor the presence of pests and
diseases in crops to mitigate their impact on yield and quality.
• It involves using various techniques such as visual inspection, remote sensing, and
advanced technologies like machine learning and drones to detect and assess the
severity of infestations.
• By detecting pests early, farmers can take timely and targeted measures to control them,
minimizing crop damage and optimizing agricultural productivity.
• Early detection of pests allows farmers to intervene before the infestation becomes
severe, reducing the need for extensive and costly pest control measures.
