Abstract In the realm of smart city governance, object detection techniques have become increasingly integral. With the YOLO architecture emerges, it has become a prominent choice for detection due to its efficiency and accuracy. Despite such advantages, the computational demands of YOLO pose challenges for deployment on platforms with limited resources in many real applications. To address this, we introduce an compression methodology tailored for the YOLO model, aiming at enhancing the operational efficiency and practical applicability within the context of urban management. Specifically, for a convolutional layer, we reconstruct the convolution filters based on a set of filter bases, whose amount is much lower than original number of convolution filters. Using YOLOv5 as a case study, we implement the method by replacing the convolutional layer in C3 modules with our proposed new filters. The empirical evaluation of our method, conducted on three custom datasets, demonstrates that the compressed YOLOv5 model attains a substantial reduction in both parameter and FLOPs count, while maintaining the detection accuracy. This verifies the effectiveness of proposed method in practical applications. In addition, we also explore the specific impact of different compression strategies and parameter setting on model performance. The findings offer valuable insights into optimizing the balance between model scale and detection accuracy, contributing to the development of efficient object detection solution for resource constrained devices in smart city governance. © 2025 IEEE.
