Overview

Applied computer vision project focused on multi-object tracking in low-light environments. The study compares YOLO variants across detection accuracy, tracking stability, and inference efficiency.

  • • End-to-end pipeline for dataset preparation and labeling.
  • • Benchmarking across YOLO versions and tracking heads.
  • • Deployment-ready inference with reproducible metrics.

Project Facts

Focus: Night-vision tracking

Methods: YOLOv5–YOLOv8, DeepSORT

Metrics: mAP, IDF1, FPS

1. Research goals

Establish a reliable baseline for detecting and tracking bats in challenging lighting while preserving high inference speed.

2. Data strategy

Curated a multi-scene dataset with manual labels, augmentation, and temporal consistency checks to reduce false positives.

3. Evaluation

  • • mAP@50 and mAP@50-95 for detection quality.
  • • IDF1 and HOTA for tracking identity stability.
  • • FPS benchmarks on GPU for deployment targets.
