Efficient Real-Time Object Detection Using Deep Neural Networks: A Comparative Analysis on Low-Power Devices
摘要
We present a comparative study of real-time object detection models optimized for low-power devices, specifically the Raspberry Pi 3B and 4B. We evaluated multiple deep learning models including SSD MobileNet V2 [1], EfficientDet-D0, and the YOLO [3] v5/v8/v11 series under both FP32 and INT8 quantized settings. Using a custom dataset with only 977 images across three object classes, we fine-tuned each model and measured inference speed (FPS), latency, and mean average precision (mAP). Our findings show that models such as YOLOv11 and SSD-MobileNet-v2-FPNLite maintain high accuracy even after quantization, making them highly suitable for deployment on low-power edge devices.
