Abstract:

In the field of high-speed projectile testing,the very high speed of projectiles poses a significant challenge to detection techniques,which in turn limits the ability to detect and localize projectiles in real time.Moreover,the available datasets for projectile detection are scarce due to the high cost and the complexity of projectile experimental setup.To address the above problems,a transmedia projectile water-entry test system is constructed.A transmedia projectile dataset is created from the projectile images captured by a high-speed camera, and expanded with data enhancement method.Aiming at the problem that the detection accuracy of projectile water-entry is significantly lower than that of projectile in air and water,a transmedia small target detection method based on a coordinate attention (CA) mechanism is proposed.The proposed method replaces the traditional convolution with depth-separable convolution on the basis of recognizing the projectile small targets with high accuracy,which achieves a good balance among detection accuracy,speed and model complexity.The experimental results show that the proposed method improves the detection accuracy by 2.68% and the recall ratio by 7.31% at the instant of projectile water-entry,which provides a solution for transmedia high-speed small target detection.

Key words: transmedia high-speed small target, target detection, attention mechanism, depth-separable convolution
