Existing salient object detection networks are large, have many parameters, are bulky and take up a lot of computational resources. Seriously hinder its application and promotion in boning robot. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a lightweight saliency detection algorithm for real-time localization of livestock meat bones. First, a lightweight feature extraction network based on multi-scale attention is constructed in the encoding stage. To ensure that more adequate salient object features are extracted with fewer parameters. Second, the fusion of jump connections is introduced in the decoding phase. Used to capture fine-grained semantics and coarse-grained semantics at full scale. Finally, we added a residual refinement module at the end of the backbone network. For optimizing salient target regions and boundaries. Experimental results on both publicly available datasets and self-made Pig leg X-ray (PLX) datasets show that. The proposed method is capable of ensuring first-class detection accuracy with 40 times less parameters than the conventional model. In the most challenging SOD dataset. The proposed algorithm in this paper achieves a value of Fωβ of 0.699. And the segmentation of livestock bones can be effectively performed on the homemade PLX dataset. Our model has a detection speed of 5fps on industrial control equipment.
