因为项目需要，尝试在yolov7上加入CBAM注意力机制，看看能不能提升点性能。之前有在yolov5上添加CBAM的经验，所以直接把yolov5中的CBAM搬过来，废话不多说，直接看代码吧！

CBAM注意力机制

首先，介绍一下CBAM注意力机制：
论文来源：https://arxiv.org/pdf/1807.06521.pdf

Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM)由两个模块构成，分别为通道注意力（CAM）和空间注意力模块（SAM），CAM可以使网络关注图像的前景，使网络更加关注有意义的gt区域，而SAM可以让网络关注到整张图片中富含上下文信息的位置。这两个模块即插即用，建议串行加入到网络中（论文里面是串行比并行好，在博主的数据集下，并行和串行效果不明显，博主认为特征融合没有苛刻的要求，视使用的数据集而定，怎么连效果好就怎么连），下面的展示的代码是串行方法。

代码

在commen.py中添加CBAM模块

这部分代码同yolov5的一样，直接拿来用！

class ChannelAttention(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, in_planes, ratio=16):
        super(ChannelAttention, self).__init__()
        self.avg_pool = nn.AdaptiveAvgPool2d(1)
        self.max_pool = nn.AdaptiveMaxPool2d(1)
        self.f1 = nn.Conv2d(in_planes, in_planes // ratio, 1, bias=False)
        self.relu = nn.ReLU()
        self.f2 = nn.Conv2d(in_planes // ratio, in_planes, 1, bias=False)
        self.sigmoid = nn.Sigmoid()
    def forward(self, x):
        avg_out = self.f2(self.relu(self.f1(self.avg_pool(x))))
        max_out = self.f2(self.relu(self.f1(self.max_pool(x))))
        out = self.sigmoid(avg_out + max_out)
        return out
class SpatialAttention(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, kernel_size=7):
        super(SpatialAttention, self).__init__()
        assert kernel_size in (3, 7), 'kernel size must be 3 or 7'
        padding = 3 if kernel_size == 7 else 1
        self.conv = nn.Conv2d(2, 1, kernel_size, padding=padding, bias=False)
        self.sigmoid = nn.Sigmoid()
    def forward(self, x):
        avg_out = torch.mean(x, dim=1, keepdim=True)
        max_out, _ = torch.max(x, dim=1, keepdim=True)
        x = torch.cat([avg_out, max_out], dim=1)
        x = self.conv(x)
        return self.sigmoid(x)
class CBAM(nn.Module):
    # Standard convolution
    def __init__(self, c1, c2, k=1, s=1, p=None, g=1, act=True):  # ch_in, ch_out, kernel, stride, padding, groups
        super(CBAM, self).__init__()
        self.conv = nn.Conv2d(c1, c2, k, s, autopad(k, p), groups=g, bias=False)
        self.bn = nn.BatchNorm2d(c2)
        self.act = nn.Hardswish() if act else nn.Identity()
        self.ca = ChannelAttention(c2)
        self.sa = SpatialAttention()
    def forward(self, x):
        x = self.act(self.bn(self.conv(x)))
        x = self.ca(x) * x
        x = self.sa(x) * x
        return x
    def fuseforward(self, x):
        return self.act(self.conv(x))

在yolo.py中添加CBAM模块名

找到yolo.py第459行，加入CBAM模块名。

在cfg文件中添加CBAM信息

这里以添加到backbone为例，将Conv替换成CBAM即可，同样也可在FPN里替换。
