Abstract

Rapid urban development in Morocco has led to increased construction activities and significant environmental concerns. Recently Zenata city has undergone significant urban development, marking a crucial step in its trajectory toward a modern smart city. As a part of this growth, our research incorporates an innovative method within the You Only Look Once version 8 (YOLOv8) model, representing a significant advance over conventional methods. The YOLO algorithm has been updated with new features and improvements that infuse our work with a dash of innovation. YOLOv8 integration improves construction and irregular construction detection accuracy beyond what is possible with traditional applications. We trained our algorithm using orthophoto captured by DJI MATRICE 300 RTK drone split into georeferenced tiles and annotated using LabelImg software. Through this process, we were able to create a solid 742 image dataset for training, testing, and validation purposes related to construction. Utilizing drone imagery and the YOLOv8 object detection algorithm, buildings and construction irregularities are detected with high accuracy after 300 training epochs on Kaggle's GPU P100. Insights for early detection and effective building site management are provided by this all-encompassing strategy, which supports Zenata City's sustainable urban growth.

Abstract

In this study, we created and applied novel concepts for hardware-based image identification and categorization. For artificial intelligence (AI) and image recognition applications, this includes putting algorithms for recognizing colors, textures, and shapes into practice. Our contribution uses an embedded device with a camera and a microcomputer (Raspberry-Pi4 type) to replace the optical assessment of Petri dishes. Our object recognition system processes images efficiently by using a state-of-the-art kernel function and a new neighborhood architecture. Using the well-known convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture, YOLOv8, as a pre-trained model, we evaluated the proposed CNN-based method for object recognition in a number of demanding scenarios. Several Petri plates, uncontrolled settings, and different backgrounds and illumination were used to evaluate the technology. Our dynamic mode integrates a CNN network with an attention mask to highlight the traits of bacteria and fungi, ensuring robust recognition. We implemented our algorithm on a Raspberry Pi 400, connected to a CMOS 3.0 camera sensor and a human-machine interface (HMI) for instant display of results.
