Hybrid Deep Feature Extraction and ML for Construction and Demolition Debris Classification

arXiv · Jan 20

This paper introduces a hybrid deep learning and machine learning pipeline for classifying construction and demolition waste. A dataset of 1,800 images from UAE construction sites was created, and deep features were extracted using a pre-trained Xception network. The combination of Xception features with machine learning classifiers achieved up to 99.5% accuracy, demonstrating state-of-the-art performance for debris identification.

A Decentralized Multi-Agent Unmanned Aerial System to Search, Pick Up, and Relocate Objects

arXiv · Jul 12

This paper presents a decentralized multi-agent unmanned aerial system designed for search, pickup, and relocation of objects. The system integrates multi-agent aerial exploration, object detection/tracking, and aerial gripping. The decentralized system uses global state estimation, reactive collision avoidance, and sweep planning for exploration. Why it matters: The system's successful deployment in demonstrations and competitions like MBZIRC highlights the potential of integrated robotic solutions for complex tasks such as search and rescue in the region.
