    Research on end-to-end multi-target detection of unmanned mine car road obstacles in open-pit mines

    • 摘要: 采矿工程正在快速向自动化、智能化方向发展,智慧矿山建设已成为未来趋势,其中露天矿区无人矿车的多目标环境感知是无人化运输的关键步骤。针对复杂非结构化道路中的碾压坑洼、水坑、车辆及人员等多元障碍物带来的安全风险,现有端到端算法在露天矿动态复杂环境中面临小目标信息丢失、多尺度特征融合不足、样本不均衡以及模型复杂度与精度难以兼顾的挑战。为此,提出面向露天矿无人矿车的端到端多目标检测模型You Only Look Once-Mine Multi-target Detection(YOLO-MMD):对于露天矿非结构地形所引起的观测像素信息缺失问题,通过引入Space-to-Depth Convolution(SPD-Conv),将图像空间信息转化为深度信息,有效保留非结构化场景中小目标的细粒度感知能力,同时提升计算效率;为提高上下文信息的有效利用,在检测层嵌入Efficient Multi-Scale Attention(EMA),实现像素级跨通道交互与空间信息聚合,增强多尺度特征融合能力且不显著增加计算负担;此外,考虑露天矿不同障碍物目标对象的样本不均衡问题,设计In-Focaler-IoU损失函数,在关注稀少目标样本的同时配合辅助边界框,提升边界框回归效率与收敛速度。研究结果显示,YOLO-MMD模型可有效检测存在遮挡、模糊等复杂条件下的多目标对象,且在检测精度与模型复杂度间实现了最优平衡——其mAP(平均精度均值)达0.939,模型大小仅4.56 MB,浮点运算量为5.8 G。这一性能表现为无人矿车的安全行驶提供了可靠的环境感知解决方案。

       

      Abstract: Mining engineering is rapidly developing towards automation and intelligence, and the construction of intelligent mines has become a future trend. The multi-objective environmental perception of unmanned mine cars in open-pit mine areas is a key step in unmanned transportation. For the safety risks caused by multiple obstacles such as rolling pits, puddles, vehicles and personnel in complex unstructured roads, the existing end-to-end algorithms face the challenges of small target information loss, insufficient multi-scale feature fusion, unbalanced samples, and difficulty in balancing model complexity and accuracy in the dynamic and complex environment of open-pit mines. To this end, an end-to-end multi-target detection model You Only Look Once-Mine Multi-target Detection (YOLO-MMD) for unmanned mine trucks in open-pit mines is proposed. For the problem of missing observation pixel information caused by unstructured terrain in open-pit mines, Space-to-Depth Convolution (SPD-Conv) is introduced to transform image spatial information into depth information, which effectively preserves the fine-grained perception ability of small targets in unstructured scenes and improves computational efficiency. In order to improve the effective use of context information, Efficient Multi-Scale Attention (EMA) is embedded in the detection layer to realize pixel-level cross-channel interaction and spatial information aggregation, which enhances the ability of multi-scale feature fusion without significantly increasing the computational burden. In addition, considering the sample imbalance problem of different obstacle target objects in open-pit mines, the In-Focaler-IoU loss function is designed to improve the efficiency and convergence speed of bounding box regression with auxiliary bounding box while paying attention to rare target samples. The study show that YOLO-MMD can detect multi-target objects under the conditions of occlusion and blurring, and achieve the best balance between multi-target detection accuracy and complexity. It can achieve 0.939 mAP, 4.56 MB model size and 5.8 G floating-point operations per second, which can provide effective and feasible environmental perception for the safe driving of unmanned mine cars.
