The paper introduces Cross-Scale Channel-wise Knowledge Distillation (CSCWD), a training-time framework that transfers high‑resolution spatial representations from a YOLO11m‑P2 teacher to a lightweight YOLO11n student without changing the student’s inference architecture. CSCWD aligns teacher P2 features with student P3 while also applying same‑scale distillation at deeper pyramid levels, yielding a 2.92‑point mAP@0.5 improvement over the baseline and a 2.09‑point gain over same‑scale distillation alone. In zero‑shot tests on DUT‑Anti‑UAV and on a Raspberry Pi 5, the 2.58‑million‑parameter student reaches 50.32% mAP@0.5 at 82.32 ms latency (12.15 fps) with negligible runtime or memory increase.
The paper evaluates out‑of‑the‑box object detection models for automatic target detection and recognition (ATD/R) in military settings. Six YOLO variants and two DETR variants were benchmarked on a new military dataset featuring vehicles, occlusions, and small targets, with performance measured in mAP@0.5 and mAP@0.5:0.95 across air‑to‑ground and ground‑to‑ground perspectives. Findings show larger models and DETR-based approaches perform best, fine‑tuning on the VisDrone dataset improves air‑to‑ground and small‑object performance, yet all models still struggle with small targets in air‑to‑ground scenarios.
