ABSTRACT
Object detection is a fundamental computer vision function for identifying and locating things in images or videos. Unlike image classification, object detection not only classifies the items in an image but also locates them inside the picture by constructing a bounding box around each one. Defence objects include a wide range of key assets needed for military and security activities. Tanks, armoured personnel carriers (APCs), military trucks, planes, helicopters, naval boats, and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) are among the types of vehicles included. Detection of these vehicles is critical for tracking troop movements, analysing battlefield dynamics, and maintaining operational preparedness. The modern defence scenario demands improved surveillance and security measures to successfully counter growing threats. This work suggests using the You Only Look Once (YOLO) method for real-time identification of numerous defence items. The project's goal is to improve security by properly detecting a variety of items, including cars, individuals, equipment, and structures, with a single deep learning model. Methodologically, a broad dataset containing photos and videos of defence items in various locations is collected and preprocessed. The YOLO algorithm is then trained on this dataset, with parameters optimised for high accuracy and recall rates. Performance evaluation include thorough testing on various datasets to determine accuracy, speed, and resilience.
