A comprehensive survey of deep learning-based lightweight object detection models for edge devices

This study concentrates on deep learning-based lightweight object detection models on edge devices. Designing such lightweight object recognition models is more difficult than ever due to the growing demand for accurate, quick, and low-latency models for various edge devices. The most recent deep learning-based lightweight object detection methods are comprehensively described in this work. Information on the lightweight backbone architectures used by these object detectors has been listed. The training and inference processes concerning to deep learning applications on edge devices is being discussed. To raise readers’ awareness of this developing domain, a variety of applications for deep learning-based…
