COMPARISON OF POTENTIAL ROAD ACCIDENT DETECTION ALGORITHMS FOR MODERN MACHINE VISION SYSTEM

摘要

Nowadays the robotics is relevant development industry. Robots are becoming more sophisticated, and this requires more sophisticated technologies. One of them is robot vision. This is needed for robots which communicate with the environment using vision instead of a batch of sensors. These data are utilized to analyze the situation at hand and develop a real-time action plan for the given scenario. This article explores the most suitable algorithm for detecting potential road accidents, specifically focusing on the scenario of turning left across one or more oncoming lanes. The selection of the optimal algorithm is based on a comparative analysis of evaluation and testing results, including metrics such as maximum frames per second for video processing during detection using robot’s hardware. The study categorises potential accidents into two classes: danger and not-danger. The Yolov7 and Detectron2 algorithms are compared, and the article aims to create simple models with the potential for future refinement. Also, this article provides conclusions and recommendations regarding the practical implementation of the proposed models and algorithm.
