ABSTRACT: In order to avoid the problem of poor illumination characteristics and inaccurate positioning accuracy, this paper proposed a pedestrian detection algorithm suitable for low-light environments. The algorithm first applied the multi-scale Retinex image enhancement algorithm to the sample pre-processing of deep learning to improve the image resolution. Then the paper used the faster regional convolutional neural network to train the pedestrian detection model, extracted the pedestrian characteristics, and obtained the bounding boxes through classification and position regression. Finally, the pedestrian detection process was carried out by introducing the Soft-NMS algorithm, and the redundant bounding box was eliminated to obtain the best pedestrian detection position. The experimental results showed that the proposed detection algorithm achieves an average accuracy of 89.74% on the low-light dataset, and the pedestrian detection effect was more significant.
