ROAD OBJECT DETECTION IN FOGGY COMPLEX SCENES ON IMPROVED YOLOv10

 Foggy weather presents substantial challenges for vehicle detection systems due to reduced visibility and the obscured appearance of objects. To overcome these challenges, a novel vehicle and Humans detection algorithm based on an improved lightweight YOLOv10 model is introduced. The proposed algorithm leverages advanced preprocessing techniques, including data transformations, Dehaze Formers, and dark channel methods, to improve image quality and visibility. These preprocessing steps effectively reduce the impact of haze and low contrast, enabling the model to focus  on meaningful features. An enhanced attention module is incorporated into the architecture to improve feature prioritization by capturing long-range dependencies and contextual information. This ensures that the model emphasizes relevant spatial and channel features, crucial for detecting small or partially visible vehicles in foggy scenes. Furthermore, the feature extraction process has been optimized, integrating an advanced lightweight module that improves the balance between computational efficiency and detection performance. This research addresses critical issues in adverse weather conditions, providing a robust framework for foggy weather vehicle and Humans detection.
