Enhancing two-stage object detection models via data-driven anchor box optimization in UAV-based maritime SAR

Abstract The high-altitude imaging capabilities of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) offer an effective solution for maritime Search and Rescue (SAR) operations. In such missions, the accurate identification of boats, personnel, and objects within images is crucial. While object detection models train...
