Abstract

Aimed at the lack of awarness of safety and airworthiness state perception ability of airport ice runway and the new demand of interaction of runway surface condition report, a multi-scale feature fusion based ice and snow state perception model of airport runway is proposed. Based on the YOLOX-s model, first, the global context block (GC block) is introduced into the backbone feature extraction network to obtain more abundant shallow and deep features. Then, the PANet networks in neck are replaced with the bi-directional feature pyramid network (BiFPN) to improve the feature fusion ability. Afterwards, an adaptive spatial feature fusion (ASFF) structure is added to the tail of the enhanced feature extraction network to further enhance the feature fusion effect. Finally, α-EIoU is used to optimize the loss function to improve the convergence speed and accuracy of the model. The experimental results show that the improved YOLOX-s model has an average accuracy of 91.53% in the snow and ice pollutant data set obtained from the runway snow and ice experimental system, which is 4.68% higher than the original YOLOX-s model, and can provide decision-making support for airport runway snow removal operations.
