Pattern-Enhanced RT-DETR for Multi-Class Battery Detection
Researchers have developed a new method called PaQ-RT-DETR for detecting multiple types of batteries, aiming to improve accuracy and efficiency in applications like electronic waste recycling and quality control. They evaluated several existing object detection models, finding YOLO11n to be the most accurate among CNN-based detectors and YOLOv8n the fastest. The proposed PaQ-RT-DETR model demonstrated superior performance by achieving a higher mean average precision (mAP@50) and showing consistent gains across all battery categories, including those with limited data.
