Abstract Accurate parcel identification in disordered logistics environments poses significant challenges due to varying package sizes, materials, and orientations. This study presents an improved YOLOv8-Efficiency algorithm tailored for such complex scenarios. The proposed algorithm introduces the C2f-OR module to reduce parameters and computation, the Conv-Ghost module for efficient feature extraction, and the HIoU loss function to enhance identification accuracy. By constructing a dataset of 4689 photos, experiments demonstrate the algorithm's effectiveness, achieving a 93.2% mAP, a 1.6% recall rate improvement, and a significant reduction in computational complexity (9.9% decrease in FLOPs). This work provides a robust solution for real-time parcel identification in disordered logistics, facilitating automation and efficiency in logistics operations.
