Detecting pistol-type weapons using convolutional networks with YOLO-like architecture and stereoscopy
Abstract
Security cameras and video surveillance systems play a crucial role in ensuring public safety. However, the increasing accessibility of pistol-type firearms contributes to growing concerns about insecurity. Early detection of these weapons is of utmost importance to prevent potential accidents. This study aims to develop a real-time stereoscopic vision system capable of accurately detecting pistol-type objects and determining their distance with high confidence. The approach combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture with a YOLO-type algorithm, utilizing transfer learning, and incorporates an algorithm for stereoscopic distance estimation. The presented system achieves an accuracy of 92.2 % with an Intersection over Union (IoU) value of 0.6. Moreover, the average distance estimation error within a range of 3 meters is only 9.3 centimeters.
