ConvNeXt model achieves 96.6% F1 score in archery arrow detection

A machine learning researcher has developed an arrow detection system for archery targets, achieving a 96.6% F1 score and 80.5% accuracy on test data. The system utilizes a ConvNeXt model pretrained on DINOv3, outperforming other architectures like ResNets and pure ViTs. The model was trained on a dataset of approximately 48,000 images, including both synthetic and manually labeled real-world archery targets, with a total of 1 million samples used during training with heavy augmentations. AI
