Target detection method and electronic equipment

The invention provides a target detection method and electronic equipment, and relates to the field of image processing. The invention provides a target detection method. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a first image; the first image is input into a first model, a detection frame of each object in the first image output by the first model is acquired, and the first model is generated after knowledge distillation is performed on a first student network by using a first teacher network and a first sample set; obtaining an object image of each object in the first image according to the detection frame of each object in the first image; and according to each object image and a second model, determining category information of each object in the first image, the second model being generated after knowledge distillation is performed on a second student network by using a second teacher network and a second sample set. By adopting the method provided by the invention, the electronic equipment can
