Video analytics faces complex challenges in object detection and classification. Deep learning based approaches have achieved remarkable success in past decade. However, existing object identification models that utilize backbone’s core features still present challenges due to their lack of semantic information. To address these issues, a novel object detection and classification framework utilizing Batch normalization and Softswish activation adapted ResNet (BS2ResNet) and Logistic Tanh Kaiming Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory (LTK-Bi-LSTM) techniques was proposed. The framework employs frame conversion, noise removal, and contrast elevation during frame pre-processing, followed by background subtraction using the Supreme Distance-centered Fuzzy C-Means (SD-FCM) clustering algorithm, and edge detection using the Hyperbolic Tangent Kernel Canny Edge Detector (HTKCED). BS2ResNet is then used for object detection, and features are extracted and passed to the LTK-Bi-LSTM neural network for object classification. The proposed system was found to improve object detection and classification accuracy, outperforming existing techniques.
A Multiple moving object detection, tracking, and counting algorithm is mainly designed exclusively suitable for congested areas. The counting system can alleviate the betrayal performance in the crowded areas. Most of the existing methods developed for tracking and counting face serious challenges in detection due to high densities of the target. This condition urged the researchers to update the existing systems. The present methodology was designed to address such issues. In the present methodology, the contrast was initially enhanced between the objects and their backgrounds using a Double Plateau Histogram Equalization (DPHE). Then, the motion was estimated for the contrast-enhanced image to identify the moment of the object using the modified Adaptive Distance Covariance Rood Pattern Search (ADCRPS) algorithm. After that, the morphological operation was deployed to sharpen the images by removing all the unwanted things. Then, the features were extracted and important features were selected using the modified Chaotic Tent Shuffled Shepherd Optimization (CTSSO) Algorithm. With the selected features object, detection was done using the proposed Scaled Non-Monotonic Cauchy Dense Convolutional Neural Network (SNMC-DenCNN). The detected object was then tracked with the aid of Channel and Spatial Reliability Tracker (CSRT). Finally, the objects were counted by intersection over union (IOU) by explicitly computing the association between detected and tracked objects. Also, the experimental results showed the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed system with enhanced accuracy.
Rice being crucial for sustaining over half of the global population, is recognized as one of the foremost plants in agriculture worldwide. The presence of diseases affecting rice plants can significantly influence both the quantity and quality of the harvest, sometimes resulting in crop losses ranging from 30 to 60%. This work focuses on automating the recognition and categorization of common rice leaf diseases using deep learning, particularly with respect to the DenseNet architecture. Preprocessing methods, the deployment of DenseNet for disease diagnosis, and the gathering of an extensive dataset are all part of this work. The efficacy of the model is demonstrated by the high recall, accuracy, and precision rates of the experimental data. This work presents the effectiveness of DenseNet, explores the implications of the results for precision agriculture, and identifies future directions for deep learning-based plant disease detection research
An efficient model to detect and track the objects in adverse weather is proposed using Tanh Softmax (TSM) EfficientDet and Jaccard Similarity based Kuhn-Munkres (JS-KM) with Pearson-Retinex in this paper. The noises were initially removed using Differential Log Energy Entropy adapted Wiener Filter (DLE-WF). The Log Energy Entropy value was calculated between the pixels instead of calculating the local mean of a pixel in the normal Wiener filter. Also, the segmentation technique was carried out using Fringe Binarization adapted K-Means Algorithm (FBKMA). The movement of segmented objects was detected using the optical flow technique, in which the optical flow was computed using the Horn-Schunck algorithm. After motion estimation, the final step in the proposed system is object tracking. The motion-estimated objects were treated as the target that is initially in the first frame. The target was tracked by JS-KM algorithm in the subsequent frame. At last, the experiential evaluation is conducted to confirm the proposed model’s efficacy. The outcomes of Detection in Adverse Weather Nature (DAWN) dataset proved that in comparison to the prevailing models, a better performance was achieved by the proposed methodology.
One of the most significant issues in surveillance videos is the detection of vehicles and objects at real time. Adverse weather conditions and lighting (illumination) variations are a few of the challenges faced while detecting objects through surveillance videos. In this work, a You Only Look Once v4 model, combined with a Spatial Pyramid Pooling and a Path Aggregation Network block and a contrast enhancement framework for effective detection of objects with higher accuracy is proposed. The video is converted to frames and is completely enhanced throughout using the Exposure Fusion Network. The brightness of the frames is equalized such that every point in the frame is clearly visible to the naked eye. Finally, the objects in the frames are detected using a YOLOv4 model, which is coupled with a SPP layer and a PAN network. The model generates an accuracy of 92.6%.
Object detection and classification are the trending research topics in the field of computer vision because of their applications like visual surveillance. However, the vision-based objects detection and classification methods still suffer from detecting smaller objects and dense objects in the complex dynamic environment with high accuracy and precision. The present paper proposes a novel enhanced method to detect and classify objects using Hyperbolic Tangent based You Only Look Once V4 with a Modified Manta-Ray Foraging Optimization-based Convolution Neural Network. Initially, in the pre-processing, the video data was converted into image sequences and Polynomial Adaptive Edge was applied to preserve the Algorithm method for image resizing and noise removal. The noiseless resized image sequences contrast was enhanced using Contrast Limited Adaptive Edge Preserving Algorithm. And, with the contrast-enhanced image sequences, the Hyperbolic Tangent based You Only Look Once V4 was trained for object detection. Additionally, to detect smaller objects with high accuracy, Grasp configuration was observed for every detected object. Finally, the Modified Manta-Ray Foraging Optimization-based Convolution Neural Network method was carried out for the detection and the classification of objects. Comparative experiments were conducted on various benchmark datasets and methods that showed improved accurate detection and classification results.
Precise traffic flow prediction is essential for efficient traffic management and improving transportation systems. This paper proposes a novel approach for long-term traffic flow prediction using spatio-temporal data analysis. The method utilizes a combined Deep Residual Network with BiLSTM network to effectively capture intricate temporal and spatial dependencies within the data. This approach leverages the respective strengths of Residual Networks and BiLSTM networks. The proposed model is evaluated on the PEMS dataset, a publicly available highway database in California, USA, and compared with existing traffic flow prediction models such as RNN, CNN, LSTM, GRU, CNN with BiLSTM, and ResNet with BiLSTM. The outcomes clearly indicate that the proposed model surpasses all other models in both mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE).The proposed Deep Residual Network with BiLSTM network achieves an MAE of 2.36 and an RMSE of 3.47, indicating its superior performance for long-term traffic movement prediction. This paper illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed method for traffic movement prediction using spatio-temporal data analysis and has significant practical implications for traffic management and transportation planning.
