Abstract Visual impairment is one of the major problems among people of all age groups across the globe. Visually Impaired Persons (VIPs) require help from others to carry out their day-to-day tasks. Since they experience several problems in their daily lives, technical intervention can help them resolve the challenges. In this background, an automatic object detection tool is the need of the hour to empower VIPs with safe navigation. The recent advances in the Internet of Things (IoT) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques make it possible. The current study proposes IoT-assisted Transient Search Optimization with a Lightweight RetinaNet-based object detection (TSOLWR-ODVIP)… More >

Abstract Based on the artificial intelligence algorithm of RetinaNet, we propose the Ghost-RetinaNet in this paper, a fast shadow detection method for photovoltaic panels, to solve the problems of extreme target density, large overlap, high cost and poor real-time performance in photovoltaic panel shadow detection. Firstly, the Ghost CSP module based on Cross Stage Partial (CSP) is adopted in feature extraction network to improve the accuracy and detection speed. Based on extracted features, recursive feature fusion structure is mentioned to enhance the feature information of all objects. We introduce the SiLU activation function and CIoU Loss to increase the learning and… More >
