Abstract:
Real-time image recognition is pivotal for numerous applications such as autonomous driving, medical diagnostics, and surveillance. This study explores the optimization of deep learning algorithms to enhance their efficiency and accuracy for real-time processing. Traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) like SSD (Single Shot MultiBox Detector) and YOLO (You Only Look Once) are examined for their balance of speed and accuracy. Innovations such as Feature Pyramid Networks (FPN) and Pyramid Scene Parsing Networks (PSPN) are highlighted for their ability to integrate multi-scale feature maps, enhancing recognition precision without significant computational overhead. Furthermore, this research delves into lightweight models designed for edge devices, emphasizing frameworks like the real-time image detection and processing platform (RT-IDPP), which leverages backpropagation neural networks and Support Vector Machines (SVM) for high accuracy in IoT environments. Transfer learning techniques are employed to fine-tune pre-trained models for specific tasks, demonstrating significant improvements in performance. Efficiency enhancements are achieved through architectural optimizations, such as dilated convolutions and asymmetrical encoding-decoding branches, which reduce computational costs while maintaining high accuracy. Experimental results indicate that these optimized deep learning models significantly improve the real-time processing capabilities, making them suitable for practical deployment in various real-time applications.
This study underscores the importance of balancing computational efficiency with recognition accuracy and highlights the potential of optimized deep learning algorithms in advancing the field of real-time image recognition.
