SpermYOLO: A Coordinated YOLO-Based Detector for Accurate and Efficient Sperm and Impurity Detection in Microscopic Images

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 13, 2026 · UTC

Accurate sperm detection is essential for computer-assisted semen analysis, yet it remains challenging in microscopic images due to dense distributions, visually similar artifacts, and sperm-like impurities. In this paper, we propose SpermYOLO, a coordinated and compact YOLOv11-derived framework for joint sperm and impurity detection in microscopic images. SpermYOLO introduces four architectural improvements: C3k2-IDB for channel-wise discriminative feature extraction, D2SEM for spatial--spectral semantic enhancement, MFM for adaptive multi-scale feature fusion, and the DESD Head for detail-en
