Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In response to the challenges of small-size defects and low recognition rates in Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), as well as the need for lightweight detection models that can be embedded in portable devices, this paper proposes an improved defect detection method based on a lightweight shared convolutional head using YOLOv8n. Firstly, the Spatial and Channel reconstruction Convolution (SCConv) is embedded into the Cross Stage Partial with Convolutional Layer Fusion (C2f) structure of the backbone network, which reduces redundant computations and enhances the model’s learning capacity. Secondly, an adaptive feature selection module is integrated to improve the network’s ability to recognize small targets. Subsequently, a Shared Lightweight Convolutional Detection (SLCD) Head replaces the original Decoupled Head, reducing the model’s computational complexity while increasing detection accuracy. Finally, the Weighted Intersection over Union (WIoU) loss function is introduced to provide more precise evaluation results and improve generalization capability. Comparative experiments conducted on a public PCB dataset demonstrate that the improved algorithm achieves a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 98.6% and an accuracy of 99.8%, representing improvements of 3.8% and 3.1%, respectively, over the original model. The model size is 4.1 M, and its FPS is 144.1, meeting the requirements for real-time and lightweight portable deployment.
