Object detection in high resolution enables the identification and localization of objects for monitoring critical areas with precision. Although there have been improvements in object detection at high resolution, the variety of object scales, as well as the diversity of backgrounds and textures in high-resolution images, make it challenging for detectors to generalize successfully. This study introduces a new method for object detection in high-resolution images. The pre-processing stage of the method includes ISA and SAM to slice the input image and segment the objects in bounding boxes, respectively. In order to improve the resolution in the slices, the first layer of YOLO is designed as SRGAN. Thus, before applying YOLO detection, the resolution of the sliced images is increased to improve features. The proposed system is evaluated on xView and VisDrone datasets for object detection algorithms in satellite and aerial imagery contexts. The success of the algorithm is presented in four different YOLO architectures integrated with SRGAN. According to comparative evaluations, the proposed system with Yolov5 and Yolov8 produces the best results on xView and VisDrone datasets, respectively. Based on the comparisons with the literature, our proposed system produces better results.
