Mamba‐ SBRNet : Real‐Time Lightweight Student Behaviour Object Detection Model

Detecting student behaviour objects in classroom environments is crucial for assessing educational progress, optimizing teaching strategies and improving student learning outcomes. With the ongoing advancement of educational informatization, analysing classroom behaviour has become an important tool for enhancing teaching quality and personalized learning. However, current student behaviour object detection models based on CNN and Transformer architectures face challenges such as large parameter sizes and high inference delays when deployed on edge devices in classrooms, limiting their practical application. To address these issues, this study proposes a lightweight student behaviour detection framework based on the Mamba architecture, aimed at balancing computational efficiency and detection accuracy. First, the framework based on the state‐space model (SSM) efficiently captures global dependencies, using local convolutions to enhance detection accuracy and scene understanding while maintaining real‐time performance. Second, the C2CGA module increases attention diversity through feature splitting, self‐attention, cascading and projected concatenation, deepening the network while reducing computational overhead. Finally, the A2CMoCA module aggregates multi‐scale features, improving the learning of small objects and occluded behaviours. Experiments on a self‐built classroom behaviour dataset (containing eight typical teaching behaviours) show that the proposed method achieves 91.5% detection accuracy while maintaining a lightweight design. Compared to the baseline model, its computational efficiency (5.9G FLOPs) is reduced by 56.6%, the parameter size is compressed to 3.65 M (a 39% reduction) and the inference speed is 3.2 ms, meeting the real‐time monitoring requirements in classroom teaching scenarios.
