BWFER-YOLOv8: An Enhanced Cascaded Framework for Concealed Object Detection by Khalid Ijaz, Ikramullah Khosa, Ejaz A. Ansari, Syed Farooq Ali, Asif Hussain, Faran Awais Butt

“…Contact-free concealed object detection using passive millimeter-wave imaging (PMMWI) sensors is a challenging task due to a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and nonuniform illumination affecting the captured image’s quality. The nonuniform illumination also generates a higher false positive rate due to the limited ability to differentiate small hidden objects from the background of images. …”
