Projects

  • 2025
    Automatic Animal and Crowd Counting
    • Developed a computer vision system using YOLOv8 with heatmap and density maps for counting animals and people in dense environments. Validated on datasets including sheep, bees, cows, monkeys, butterflies, and humans.
    • YOLOv8 • OpenCV • Heatmap and Density Maps • Computer Vision
  • 2025
    Transfer Learning for Crowded Animals Detection
    • Applied transfer learning to adapt YOLOv8 models trained on one species to others (e.g., cows, monkeys, butterflies). Cross-class fine-tuning improved generalization and reduced training data requirements for scalable deployment.
    • Transfer Learning • Fine-Tuning • Cross-Class Generalization • Domain Adaptation
  • 2025
    YOLO Version Comparison (YOLOv3 -> YOLO12)
    • Benchmarking YOLO models for detecting animals in crowded herds, focusing on accuracy, inference speed, occlusion robustness, and cross-species generalization.
    • YOLOv3–YOLOv8+ • Backbone Comparison • Anchor-Free Detection • Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) • Inference Speed and Latency • Model Optimization (Quantization, Pruning)
