Falls are a major cause of injury, hospitalization, and loss of independence among older adults, spurring interest in visual intelligence-based automated fall detection for timely response and continuous monitoring. This article presents a systematic review of such systems, focusing on YOLO-based approaches. Following PRISMA guidelines, the review covers 2016–2025 literature, identifying 637 records and including 63 studies after screening. We examine datasets, preprocessing strategies, evaluation protocols, metrics, and hardware platforms, comparing reported accuracy, efficiency, and real-time feasibility across different designs. Evidence is strongest for YOLOv3 through YOLOv9, while evi... More >

Camouflaged object detection (COD) remains a significant challenge in computer vision. Existing approaches struggle to address both body immersion and structural ambiguity simultaneously, leading to inaccurate boundary delineations. This paper presents a novel Visual Sensing framework via Multiscale Edge-Aware Learning with Hybrid Attention. The proposed framework integrates hierarchical feature extraction, adaptive attention mechanisms, and progressive multi-scale fusion to achieve robust COD. We employ EfficientNetB7 as the backbone network to extract six-scale hierarchical features, capturing both fine-grained spatial details and high-level semantic representations. Initial shallow featur... More >

With the rapid advancement of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, there is a need for lightweight and accurate object detection on resource-constrained platforms. This paper proposes MS-CADNet, an anchor-free network for small object detection in aerial imagery. It uses a MobileNetV3-Small backbone and a two-branch gated Context Attention Module (CAM) to enhance feature quality. On the VisDrone-DET benchmark, it achieves 31.2% mAP, surpassing YOLOv8-Small and CEASC. The model attains 19.2% AP for small objects with only 3.1M parameters and 5.4 GFLOPs, making it suitable for real-time UAV deployment. More >
