arXiv:2608. 14770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: An estimated 138 million children remain in child labour worldwide, and the monitoring systems used by affected sectors, built on periodic household visits and interviews, systematically under-detect them.
arXiv:2607. 13234v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deepfake detectors that achieve near-perfect scores on academic benchmarks collapse on real-world content: recent in-the-wild evaluations report AUC drops of 45-50% for state-of-the-art open-source models.
Existing video benchmarks evaluate action recognition on consumer videos, egocentric recordings, or simulated industrial environments. They do not test vision-language models under the visual and procedural conditions of real industrial CCTV, where workers appear as distant figures amid dust, steam, low light, glare, occlusion, and overlapping activities.
arXiv:2608. 11770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Edge-deployed vision systems in target recognition, surveillance, autonomous vehicles, and drone domains require hierarchical inference pipelines where a detection model identifies objects of interest and downstream classifiers provide fine-grained attribute analysis.
arXiv:2606. 10940v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Camera traps have become a cornerstone of biodiversity monitoring, but the artificial intelligence that turns vast quantities of images into usable ecological data is often locked behind commercial platforms or trained on fauna that does not match that of the British Isles.
arXiv:2607. 03131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern video surveillance systems generate far more video streams than human operators can effectively monitor, making automated analysis essential for timely detection of security events.
Camera traps have become a cornerstone of biodiversity monitoring, but the artificial intelligence that turns vast quantities of images into usable ecological data is often locked behind commercial platforms or trained on fauna that does not match that of the British Isles. In an attempt to remove barriers and increase uptake, we release an open-source object detection model for 31 classes, 28 common UK mammal and bird species, plus utility classes for humans, calibration poles, and vehicles, drawn from a curated dataset of 48,165 labelled instances assembled from multiple sites over a decade of operational deployment through Conservation AI and its successor, Trap Tracker.
arXiv:2606. 11106v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A global shortage of trained sonographers limits prenatal ultrasound screening in low- and middle-income countries, where over half of pregnant women receive no skilled sonography.
arXiv:2608. 17044v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The 10th AI City Challenge, held with ECCV 2026, marks a decade of community benchmarking for intelligent transportation, smart cities, and physical AI.
arXiv:2606. 03748v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-time vision demands models that are accurate, efficient, and simple to deploy across diverse hardware.
arXiv:2606. 08123v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Model selection for safety-relevant visual recognition is often based on clean aggregate performance, although robustness, transfer, embedded latency, and explanation faithfulness may produce different preferences.
Detectors for AI-generated video are evaluated offline. A clip is decoded to pixels and scored once, increasingly by a large vision-language model.
arXiv:2606. 31421v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Single-stage video object detectors are increasingly deployed in time-critical applications, yet it remains unclear whether these models genuinely reason over temporal context or merely exploit a single informative frame-a gap hidden by standard metrics, which reward correct predictions regardless of how they are reached.
