Most of the current ship detection methods focus on boosting detection accuracy while they may ignore the detection speed. However, it is also indispensable to increase ship detection speed because it can provide timely ocean rescue and maritime surveillance. To solve the above problems, we propose an improved YOLOv3 (ImYOLOv3) based on attention mechanism, aiming to achieve the best trade-off between detection accuracy and speed. First, to realize high-efficiency ship detection, we adopt the off-the-shelf YOLOv3 as our basic detection framework due to its fast speed. Second, to boost the performance of original YOLOv3 for small ships, we design a novel and lightweight dilated attention module (DAM) to extract discriminative features for ship targets, which can be easily embedded into the basic YOLOv3. The integrated attention mechanism can help our model learn to suppress irrelevant regions while highlighting salient features useful for ship detection task. Furthermore, we introduce a multi-class ship dataset (MSD) and explicitly set supervised subclass according to the scales and moving states of ships. Extensive experiments verify the effectiveness and robustness of ImYOLOv3, and show that our method can accurately detect ships with different scales in different backgrounds, while at a real-time speed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13040660","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,12]],"date-time":"2021-02-12T18:45:00Z","timestamp":1613155500000},"page":"660","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":103,"title":["Improved YOLOv3 Based on Attention Mechanism for Fast and Accurate Ship Detection in Optical Remote Sensing Images"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5058-0523","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liqiong","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic Information, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9193-3185","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wenxuan","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dexiang","family":"Deng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronic Information, Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1007\/s13753-017-0143-8","article-title":"Quantifying Disaster Physical Damage Using Remote Sensing Data\u2014A Technical Work Flow and Case Study of the 2014 Ludian Earthquake in China","volume":"8","author":"Fan","year":"2017","journal-title":"Int.
