This paper presents a pioneering application of YOLOv4 in conjunction with Darknet, tailored specifically to detect hazardous items including spray cans, batteries, and other potential threats. By introducing this state-of-the-art detection mechanism, recycling plants can elevate safety standards, optimize operational processes, ensure adherence to stringent regulatory guidelines, and play a pivotal role in environmental preservation.</p> 2024-03-19T21:58:18+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 ParadigmPlus
