Abstract:

Aiming at the problems of low detection accuracy of deep learning algorithm in traffic sign detection, this paper proposes improved EfficientDet based traffic sign detection algorithm. Multi-head self-attention is introduced in the minimum resolution layer of the backbone of EfficientDet to achieve effective aggregation of local and global depth information, and this study proposes an improved feature fusion pyramid with increased vertical cross-layer connections, which improves the performance of the model while introducing a small amount of complexity, the Balanced L1 Loss is introduced to replace the original regression loss function Smooth L1 Loss, which solves the problem of balance in the loss function. Experimental results show, the algorithm proposed in this study is suitable for the task of traffic sign detection. Compared with other models, the improved EfficientDet has the best detection accuracy. Although the test speed is not completely dominant, it still meets the real-time requirement.

Abstract:

Assembly processes involve disparate materials that possess dissimilar resiliencies and, therefore, are prone to generating defective products. Manually performed quality inspection of such products is a time-consuming and susceptible to error process. The emerging computer vision techniques in smart manufacturing can alleviate the need for thorough, manually performed quality control. Object detection techniques provide crucial localization abilities, thus helping the operators further validate the identified defect with ease. In this work, several state-of-the-art object detection models are assessed in a real industrial imagery dataset and with the use of transfer learning. EfficientDet D2 is proposed for the identification and localization of antenna defects that are generated during the assembly process. To further enhance the dataset, heavy on-the-fly data augmentation was employed, along with synthetic samples generated with the use of image processing software. The proposed approach utilizing EfficientDet D2 can increase the Average Precision from 0.90 (at IoU 0.5) to 0.97 (at IoU 0.3). The overall performance is further evaluated by applying the F1-Score at each confidence score. For conducting the experiments, the TensorFlow object detection API is employed.

Abstract:

Public transportation is a crucial aspect of passenger transportation, with buses playing a vital role in the transportation service. Passenger counting is an essential tool for organizing and managing transportation services. However, manual counting is a tedious and time-consuming task, which is why computer vision algorithms are being utilized to make the process more efficient. In this study, different object detection algorithms combined with passenger tracking are investigated to compare passenger counting performance. The system employs the EfficientDet algorithm, which has demonstrated superior performance in terms of speed and accuracy. Our results show that the proposed system can accurately count passengers in varying conditions with an accuracy of 94%.
