A Real-Time DETR Approach to Bangladesh Road Object Detection for Autonomous Vehicles

In the recent years, we have witnessed a paradigm shift in the field of Computer Vision, with the forthcoming of the transformer architecture. Detection Transformers has become a state of the art solution to object detection and is a potential candidate for Road Object Detection in Autonomous Vehicles. Despite the abundance of object detection schemes, real-time DETR models are shown to perform significantly better on inference times, with minimal loss of accuracy and performance. In our work, we used Real-Time DETR (RTDETR) object detection on the BadODD Road Object Detection dataset based in Bangladesh, and performed necessary experimentation and testing. Our results gave a mAP50 score of 0.41518 in the public 60% test set, and 0.28194 in the private 40% test set.

Towards Speaker Identification with Minimal Dataset and Constrained Resources using 1D-Convolution Neural Network

Voice recognition and speaker identification are vital for applications in security and personal assistants. This paper presents a lightweight 1D-Convolutional Neural Network (1D-CNN) designed to perform speaker identification on minimal datasets. Our approach achieves a validation accuracy of 97.87%, leveraging data augmentation techniques to handle background noise and limited training samples. Future improvements include testing on larger datasets and integrating transfer learning methods to enhance generalizability. We provide all code, the custom dataset, and the trained models to facilitate reproducibility. These resources are available on our GitHub repository: https://github.com/IrfanNafiz/RecMe.
