Taking the lightweight improved YOLO network as the main target, the new lightweight network models YOLOv5s-CCA (YOLOv5s-C3-coordinate attention) and YOLOv5s-CSE (YOLOv5s-C3-squeeze-and-excitation) are put forward in this paper by selecting the representative SE (squeeze-and-excitation) channel attention module and relatively novel CA (coordinate attention) spatial attention module to fuse with YOLOv5s object detection network. By further exploration, the strategy for the optimal insertion position of the SE and CA attention modules in YOLOv5s object detection network is demonstrated. The experiment proves that CA is superior to SE attention module in the lightweight network model. The YOLOv5s-CCA network model proposed in this paper realizes the goal of network lightweight in both PASCAL VOC 2012 and Global Wheat 2020 data sets, and its accuracy is improved compared with the original network. It is confirmed that YOLOv5s-CCA has certain universality and generalization, which provides reliable data support and certain reference value for its lightweight deployment in actual production and life.
