“Understanding, Selecting and Optimizing Object Detectors for Edge Applications,” a Presentation from Walmart Global Tech

Md Nasir Uddin Laskar, Staff Machine Learning Engineer at Walmart Global Tech, presents the “Understanding, Selecting and Optimizing Object Detectors for Edge Applications” tutorial at the May 2023 Embedded Vision Summit.

Object detectors count objects in a scene and determine their precise locations, while also labeling them. Object detection plays a crucial role in many vision applications, from autonomous driving to smart appliances. In many of these applications, it’s necessary or desirable to implement object detection at the edge.

In this presentation, Laskar explores the evolution of object detection algorithms, from traditional approaches to deep learning-based methods and transformer-based architectures. He delves into widely used approaches for object detection, such as two-stage R-CNNs and one-stage YOLO algorithms, and examines their strengths and weaknesses. And he provides guidance on how to evaluate and select an object detector for an edge application.
