摘要

Most navigation algorithms are developed for controlled environments, such as warehouses and factories, or for autonomous vehicles, where the challenge lies in fast decision-making over a limited set of obstacles. These conditions differ significantly from pedestrian spaces, which are highly unstructured and low-speed in nature. This work focuses on the adaptation of object detection algorithms for pedestrian navigation via transfer learning. Several models were fine-tuned using the VIDVIP dataset. While all the trained models showed similar performance, YOLOv12x managed to achieve a mAP50-95 score higher than 0.6, which shows a visibly better performance on test environments. This work highlights the potential of transfer learning with urban datasets for enhancing pedestrian navigation systems.
