前言
2023 年，Ultralytics 推出了最新版本的 YOLO 模型。注意力机制是提高模型性能最热门的方法之一。
本次介绍的是YOLOv8-AM，它将注意力机制融入到原始的YOLOv8架构中。具体来说，我们分别采用四个注意力模块：卷积块注意力模块（CBAM）、全局注意力机制（GAM）、高效通道注意力（ECA）和随机注意力（SA）来设计改进模型并在数据集上进行测试。实验结果表明，基于ResBlock + CBAM（ResCBAM）的YOLOv8-AM模型在IoU 50（mAP 50）下的平均精度提到了2.2%，达到了state-of-the-art（SOTA）表现。相反，结合GAM的YOLOv8-AM模型获得了的mAP @50并不是一个令人满意的增强。因此，我们将ResBlock和GAM结合起来，引入ResGAM设计另一个新的YOLOv8-AM模型，获得一个较为满意的结果。

注意力机制：
带有YOLOv8-AM的结构图
YOLOv8 架构由四个关键组件组成：Backbone、Neck、Head 和 Loss Function。 Backbone 融合了 Cross Stage Partial (CSP) 概念，具有减少计算负载、同时增强 CNN 学习能力的优势。如图所示，YOLOv8与采用C3模块的YOLOv5不同，采用C2f模块，该模块集成了C3模块和YOLOv7中的扩展ELAN（E-ELAN）概念。
YOLOv8-AM模型架构详解，其中注意力模块为Shuffle Attention（SA）、Efficient Channel Attention（ECA）、Global Attention Mechanism（GAM）、ResBlock + Convolutional Block Attention Module（ResCBAM）
Convolutional Block Attention Module
CBAM架构
CBAM 包括通道注意力（C-Attention）和空间注意力（S-Attention），如图所示。给定一个中间特征图，CBAM 通过等式依次推断出 1D 通道注意力图 和 2D 空间注意力图 。

Shuffle Attention
Shuffle Attention
SA将输入特征图分为不同的组，利用Shuffle Unit将通道注意力和空间注意力整合到每个组的一个块中，如图所示。随后，子特征被聚合，并且“ ShuffleNetV2 中使用的“Channel Shuffle”算子用于促进各种子特征之间的信息通信。对于通道注意力，SA 采用 GAP 来捕获和嵌入子特征。此外，使用带有 sigmoid 函数的简单门控机制来创建紧凑的函数，以促进精确和自适应的选择。
