YOLOX-ViT, a novel object detection model, is presented in this paper. The research investigates the effectiveness of knowledge distillation for reducing model size without sacrificing performance, specifically in underwater robotics. A new side-scan sonar image dataset is introduced and used to evaluate the object detector’s performance. Results show that knowledge distillation effectively reduces false positives in wall detection and improves object detection accuracy in the underwater environment. The visual transformer layer significantly improves accuracy.

In this paper, scientists developed a new way to detect objects underwater using special machines called robots. They wanted to see if they could make these robots better by teaching them how to be more accurate without making them bigger or slower. To do this, they created a new type of computer model and tested it on some underwater images. The results were great – the robot got much better at detecting things like walls and objects. This is important because underwater robots can help us explore and protect our oceans.
