Abstract
With the development of the social economy and the continuous growth of the population, emergencies within field stations are becoming more frequent. To improve the efficiency of emergency evacuation of field stations and further protect people’s lives, this paper proposes a method based on improved YOLOv5s target detection and Anylogic emergency evacuation simulation. This method applies the YOLOv5s target detection network to the emergency evacuation problem for the first time, using the stronger detection capability of YOLOv5s to solve the problem of unstable data collection under unexpected conditions. This paper first uses YOLOv5s, which incorporates the SE attention mechanism, to detect pedestrians inside the site. Considering the height of the camera and the inability to capture the whole body of the pedestrian when the site is crowded, this paper adopts the detection of the pedestrian’s head to determine the specific location of the pedestrian inside the site. To ensure that the evacuation task is completed in the shortest possible time, Anylogic adopts the principle of closest distance evacuation, so that each pedestrian can leave through the exit closest to him or her. The experimental results show that the average accuracy of the YOLOv5s target detection model incorporating the SE attention mechanism can reach 94.01%; the constructed Anylogic emergency evacuation model can quickly provide an evacuation plan to guide pedestrians to leave from the nearest exit in an emergency, effectively verifying the feasibility of the method. The method can be extended and applied to research related to the construction of emergency evacuation aid decision-making systems in field stations.
