Description
Summary:Real-time safety monitoring on construction sites is essential for ensuring worker safety, but traditional detection methods face challenges in dynamic environments with moving objects, occlusions, and complex conditions. To address these limitations, we propose GS-LinYOLOv10, an improved model based on YOLOv10, specifically designed for drone-based safety monitoring. The GSConv module introduces a lightweight feature extraction mechanism, reducing computational complexity without compromising detection accuracy. The Linformer-based attention mechanism efficiently captures global context, addressing challenges in dynamic and complex environments. The model integrates IoT sensor data for real-time feedback, incorporates the GSConv module for lightweight feature extraction, and utilizes a Linformer-based attention mechanism to efficiently capture global context. These innovations reduce computational complexity while significantly improving detection accuracy. Experimental results show that GS-LinYOLOv10 achieves a precision of 91.2% and a mean average precision (mAP) of 89.4%, outperforming existing models. The integration of IoT sensors allows the drone system to dynamically adjust its monitoring focus, improving adaptability to changing environments and enhancing hazard detection. This research provides an advanced, drone-based IoT-enhanced solution for real-time construction site safety monitoring, offering a more effective and efficient approach to safety management.
