What is it about?
the experiments show that the shrank model only has a size of 13 MB (almost a third of Yolov3-tiny), while the mAP (mean Average Precsion) is 91.3%, and IOU (intersection over union) is 90.7. The detection time is 0.015 second per CT image, and BFLOP/s (Billion Floating Point Operations per Second) value is less than Yolov3-tiny

Why is it important?
in this paper, we present a model based on Yolov3-tiny to detect three spinal fracture lesions, cfracture (cervical fracture), tfracture (thoracic fracture), and lfracture (lumbar fracture) with a small size model. We construct this novel model by replacing the traditional convolutional layers in YoloV3-tiny with fire modules from SqueezeNet, so as to reduce the parameters and model size, meanwhile get accurate lesions detection. Then we remove the batch normalization layers in the fire modules after the comparative experiments, though the overall performance of fire module without batch normalization layers is slightly improved, we can reduce computation complexity and low occupations of computer resources for fast lesions detection.
