Comparative Analysis of YOLOv9 and YOLOv10 Algorithms for Urban Safety Improvement

Individual safety in urban and city centers is one of the fundamental rights of every person. Today's innovations open up various possibilities for improving the quality of life and safety, but if they are not applied, they carry the danger of an additional increase in crime or greater insecurity in urban centers. This investigation aims to apply insights into the anticipation of illegal actions by various criminal groups that use illegal means, such as weapons, to get property that does not belong to them. In this research, computer vision and advanced strategies such as YOLOv10 and YOLOv9 are used to compare their properties and performance for improving security in urban and populated areas. The best results were achieved by YOLOv9m with a high percentage of mean average precision in the amount of 0.923, while the worst performance was shown by YOLOv10n with a mean average precision of 0.902. Precision and recall for the YOLOv9 and YOLOv10 models were also taken into account and the results are as follows: 0.984.. 0.993.. 0.979.. and 0.996.
