Towards toxic and narcotic medication detection with rotated object detectors.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recent years have witnessed the advancement of deep learning vision technologies and applications in the medical industry. Intelligent devices for specific medication management could alleviate workload of medical staff by providing assistance services to identify drug specifications and locations.

Methods

In this work, object detectors based on the you only look once (YOLO) algorithm are tailored for toxic and narcotic medication detection tasks in which there are always numerous of arbitrarily oriented small bottles. Specifically, we propose a flexible annotation process that defines a rotated bounding box with a degree ranging from 0° to 90° without worry about the long-short edges. Moreover, a mask-mapping-based non-maximum suppression method has been leverage
