Real-time and fast recognition of all kinds of traffic participants in intelligent driving has always been a major difficulty in the research of internet of vehicles. With the advent of edge computing, we try to deploy an image recognition algorithm directly to the intelligent vehicles. However, the original image recognition algorithm is difficult to be directly deployed on the vehicles due to limited edge device resources. Based on this, a fast recognition model of vulnerable traffic participants based on depthwise separable convolutional neural network (DSCYOLO) is proposed in this paper. The algorithm can significantly reduce the convolutional parameter quantity and computing load, making it suitable for deployment on the vehicle-mounted edge embedded devices. In order to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, its simulation results are compared with the main target detection models Faster R-CNN, SSD and YOLOv3. The results show that the recognition time of the proposed model is reduced by 80.28%, 66.80% and 86.74%, respectively, on the basis of a relatively high recognition precision. The model can realize real-time detection and fast recognition of vulnerable traffic participants, so as to avoid a large number of traffic accidents. It has significant social and economic benefits.
