Developed and implemented an end-to-end smoke detection algorithm using Transfer Learning with Pre-trained models.
Due to limited data availability, applied Data Augmentation and Ensemble Methods to improve generalization and accuracy, achieving an F1-score of approximately 0.87.
Outcome: The company deployed my trained model on a real site for live smoke detection.
