【目标检测】YOLOv7算法实现(一)：模型搭建

本系列文章记录本人硕士阶段YOLO系列目标检测算法自学及其代码实现的过程。其中算法具体实现借鉴于ultralytics YOLO源码Github，删减了源码中部分内容，满足个人科研需求。
本篇文章在YOLOv5算法实现的基础上，进一步完成YOLOv7算法的实现。YOLOv7相比于YOLOv5，最主要的不同之处如下：

模型结构：引进了更为高效的特征提取模块(ELAN)、下采样模块(MP)，不同的空间池化层(SPPCSPC)，重参数卷积(RepConv)
损失计算：结合YOLOv5中和正样本匹配方法和YOLOX中的正样本筛选方法(SimOTA)

        return self.cv7(torch.cat((y1, y2), dim=1))

2.5 RepConv模块

2.5.1 参数融合

RepConv模块的具体结构如图1中所示，在推理阶段其将多个卷积模块融为一个卷积模块，提高模型计算的高效性。

卷积层+BN层 → 卷积层

卷积层的计算公式为：
$Conv(x){\rm{ }} = {\rm{ }}W(x) + b$
在pytorch中，卷积层权重为conv.weight，偏置为conv.bias。
BN层的计算公式为：
$\gamma {{x - mean} \over {\sqrt {{\mathop{\rm var}} } }} + \beta$
在pytorch中，γ = bn.weight，mean = bn.running_mean, var = bn.running_var, β = bn.bias。
卷积层和BN层融合公式为：

$\gamma {{(W(x) + b) - mean} \over {\sqrt {{\mathop{\rm var}} } }} + \beta = new\_W(x) + new\_b$
$new\_W(x) = {{\gamma W(x)} \over {\sqrt {{\mathop{\rm var}} } }},new\_b = {{\gamma (b - mean)} \over {\sqrt {{\mathop{\rm var}} } }} + \beta$

BN层->卷积层：构造一个参数为0的卷积层(1×1)，实现卷积层+BN层融合

卷积层(3×3)+卷积层(1×1) →卷积层(3×3)：将卷积层(1×1)填充为3×3，再将卷积层权重和偏置相加实现融合

3 模型配置文件构建(model.yaml)

基于图1所示的模型结构和模型模块所需的参数，构建模型配置文件。其中结构解析包含四个参数[from，number，module，args]：

from：当前层的输入来自于哪一层
number：当前层数量
module：当前层所有模块(在common.py中实现，需与类名对应)
args：第一个参数为当前层输出通道数，其余参数为模块特有参数；当前层的输入通道数由“from”参数指向的层决定，在结构解析时加入该参数。

# Parameters

4 模型搭建(yolo.py)

模型搭建的具体实现方法可见文章YOLOv5算法实现(二)：模型搭建，在YOLOv7中，在模型类中额外添加一个如下函数实现RepConv模块的融合即可。

        print('Fusing layers...')
        for m in self.model.modules():
            if isinstance(m, RepConv):

        return self
