Researchers have developed GSA-YOLO, a new lightweight framework designed for real-time X-ray security inspection. This model, based on YOLOv8n, incorporates structured sparsity and adaptive knowledge distillation to improve detection accuracy and inference speed. GSA-YOLO integrates Group Lasso, Sparse Structure Selection, and an Adaptive Knowledge Distillation mechanism to enhance feature representation and reduce model size. Evaluations on the HiXray and PIDray datasets show GSA-YOLO achieves a leading inference speed of 189.62 FPS with reduced computational cost, alongside improved mAP50:95 scores compared to the baseline.
