Hybrid attention transformer integrated YOLOV8 for fruit ripeness detection by Jianyin Tang, Zhenglin Yu, ChangShun Shao

“…In addition, during the feature fusion stage, the Hybrid Attention Transformer (HAT) module is integrated into TopDownLayer2 to enhance the capture of long-term dependencies and the recovery of detailed information in the input data. To more accurately evaluate the similarity between the prediction box and the real bounding box, this paper uses the EIoU loss function instead of CIoU, thereby improving detection accuracy and accelerating model convergence. …”
