The YOLOv4 network is widely used in object detection tasks as a representative network, but there is also the problem that the complexity of the network model affects the detection speed. In this paper, we propose an improved MV2_S_YE object detection algorithm based on the YOLOv4 network to improve the detection accuracy while increasing the road object detection speed. Firstly, the backbone network CSPDarknet53 of the YOLOv4 network is replaced by the Mobilenetv2 network to reduce the number of parameters of the network; secondly, the channel attention mechanism is introduced, and the SENet module is embedded in the structure of the PANet to optimize the object detection accuracy; finally, the EIOU loss function is used to replace the CIOU loss function to improve the object detection accuracy further. The MV2_S_YE network is obtained and tested on Pascal VOC, Udacity, and KAIST datasets. To evaluate our approach, we compared MV2-S-YE with YOLOv4, YOLOv4-tiny, YOLOv7-tiny and YOLOv8s. The results show that MV2-S-YE 的
