In intelligent traffic monitoring systems, small target vehicle detection in complex scenes faces challenges such as low feature resolution, severe occlusion interference, computational redundancy, and insufficient bounding-box regression accuracy. To balance detection accuracy with deployment efficiency on edge devices, an improved YOLOv8 framework based on dynamic sparse attention and a lightweight dual-branch structure was proposed. The method first introduced a bidirectional routing sparse attention mechanism (ReBiAttention) that enhanced the retention of shallow features for small targets by dynamically filtering key features through a two-level routing strategy. Subsequently, GSConv and VoV-GSCSP modules were integrated to reduce computational cost while dynamically adjusting multi-scale feature weights. An improved DynamicHead was applied for multi-task adaptive optimization, and a modified ShapeIoU loss function with shape- and scale-aware weighting was employed to improve localization accuracy. Experiments on the UA-DETRAC dataset showed that, relative to baseline YOLOv8n, Precision, Recall, and mAP@0.5 increased by 8.739%, 1.685%, and 7.225%, respectively, while the parameter count decreased by 4.3%. This method provided an efficient solution for accurate detection of small-target vehicles in complex traffic scenarios.
