Abstract: Tens of thousands of work-related injuries and deaths are reported in the construction industry each year, and a high percentage of them are due to construction workers not wearing safety equipment. In order to address this safety issue, it is particularly necessary to automatically identify people and detect the safety characteristics of personnel at the same time in the prefabricated building. Therefore, this paper proposes a depth feature detection algorithm based on the Extended-YOLOv3 model. On the basis of the YOLOv3 network, a security feature recognition network and a feature transmission network are added to achieve the purpose of detecting security features while identifying personnel. Firstly, a security feature recognition network is added side by side on the basis of the YOLOv3 network to analyze the wearing characteristics of construction workers. Secondly, the S-SPP module is added to the object detection and feature recognition network to broaden the features of the deep network and help the network extract more useful features from the high-resolution input image. Finally, a special feature transmission network is designed to transfer features between the construction worker detection network and the security feature recognition network, so that the two networks can obtain feature information from the other network respectively. Compared with YOLOv3 algorithm, Extended-YOLOv3 in this paper adds security feature recognition and feature transmission functions, and adds S-SPP module to the object detection and feature recognition network. The experimental results show that the Extended-YOLOv3 algorithm is 1.3% better than the YOLOV3 algorithm in AP index.
