Abstract
An improved EA‐YOLO object detection algorithm based on YOLOv5 is proposed to address the issues of drastic changes in target scale, low detection accuracy, and high miss rate in unmanned aerial vehicle aerial photography scenarios. Firstly, a DFE module was proposed to improve the effectiveness of feature extraction and enhance the whole model's ability to learn residual features. Secondly, a CWFF architecture was introduced to enable deeper feature fusion and improve the effectiveness of feature fusion. Finally, in order to solve the traditional algorithm's shortcomings it is difficult to detect small targets. We have designed a novel SDS structure and adopted a strategy of reusing low‐level feature maps to enhance the network's ability to detect small targets, making it more suitable for detecting some small objects in drone images. Experiments in the VisDrone2019 dataset demonstrated that the proposed EA‐YOLOs achieved an average accuracy mAP@0.5 of 39.9%, which is an 8% improvement over YOLOv5s, and mAP@0.5:0.95 of 22.2%, which is 5.2% improvement over the original algorithm. Compared with YOLOv3, YOLOv5l, and YOLOv8s, the mAP@0.5 of EA‐YOLOs improved by 0.9%, 1.8%, and 0.6%, while the GFLOPs decreased by 86.4%, 80.6%, and 26.7%. © 2024 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan and Wiley Periodicals LLC.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
