WCAY object detection of fractures for X-ray images of multiple sites.

ABSTRACT: The WCAY (weighted channel attention YOLO) model, which is meticulously crafted to identify fracture features across diverse X-ray image sites, is presented herein. This model integrates novel core operators and an innovative attention mechanism to enhance its efficacy. Initially, leveraging the benefits of dynamic snake convolution (DSConv), which is adept at capturing elongated tubular structural features, we introduce the DSC-C2f module to augment the model's fracture detection performance by replacing a portion of C2f. Subsequently, we integrate the newly proposed weighted channel attention (WCA) mechanism into the architecture to bolster feature fusion and improve fracture detection across various sites. Comparative experiments were conducted, to evaluate the performances of several a
