However, the relatively small size of the detection target compared to the water surface background, along with its susceptibility to noise interference such as light, water waves, and reflections, significantly increases the difficulty of detection. To address the above challenges, this paper proposes a shallow information\u2010injected pyramidal network, SI\u2010FPN, and integrates it with the YOLOv11 target detection network to create the SI\u2010FloatDet framework for complex water surface scenarios. Firstly, to better capture the detailed features of small targets, we design a plug\u2010and\u2010play pyramid network (SI\u2010FPN) that can help solve the problem of information interaction between neighboring feature layers. Secondly, to suppress the noise interference on surface targets, we develop an adaptive spatial refinement module (ASRM). We conduct experiments on the Flow\u2010Img dataset, which contains a large number of small targets. The results show that compared to the original YOLOv11 model, SI\u2010FloatDet improves by 6.1% and 4.6% in mAP@0.5 and mAP@0.5:0.95, respectively, and outperforms the existing model in detecting both small and medium targets. Additionally, field experiments were conducted on a water surface trash\u2010cleaning robot equipped with a vision system. The results show that SI\u2010FloatDet maintains high accuracy in complex scenarios (e.g., bright light, reflective interference), verifying its reliability and effectiveness in practical applications. This method provides an efficient and reliable solution for detecting water surface litter.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/rob.70039","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,13]],"date-time":"2025-08-13T11:45:24Z","timestamp":1755085524000},"page":"293-313","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["SI\u2010FloatDet: A Visual Inspection Method for Water Surface Cleaning Robots Based on Shallow Information Injection and Adaptive Spatial Refinement"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Guohua","family":"Yu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Innovation Center for Digital Fishery China Agricultural University  Beijing China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Smart Farming Technologies for Aquatic Animals and Livestock, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs China Agricultural University  Beijing China"},{"name":"Beijing Engineering and Technology Research Centre for Internet of Things in Agriculture  Beijing China"},{"name":"College of Information and Electrical Engineering China Agricultural University  Beijing China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kaiwei","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Engineering Peking University  Beijing China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2872-4911","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jincun","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Innovation Center for Digital Fishery China Agricultural University  Beijing China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Smart Farming Technologies for Aquatic Animals and Livestock, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs China Agricultural University  Beijing China"},{"name":"Beijing Engineering and Technology Research Centre for Internet of Things in Agriculture  Beijing China"},{"name":"College of Information and Electrical Engineering China Agricultural University  Beijing China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shihan","family":"Kong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Engineering Peking University  Beijing China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","unstructured":"Ba J.
