Improving Road Safety With Enhanced Vehicle Detection for Night-time Traffic in Mirpur
This paper presents a study on improving night-time vehicle detection in the Mirpur region through a modified neural network model. Given the challenges of low visibility at night, the research focused on optimizing a deep learning algorithm to enhance detection accuracy. A dataset of 10,000 images covering various vehicle types was collected and annotated to train and test the model. The study found a 7% increase in detection performance compared to the standard model, highlighting the potential for tailored algorithms in specific environmental conditions. The findings suggest significant implications for road safety and autonomous driving systems, particularly in regions with similar night-time driving challenges. The research contributes to the broader field of computer vision by showing the effectiveness of model optimization in real-world conditions.
