• Abstract: Waste pollution is one of the most significant environmental issues in the modern world. The importance of recycling is well known, either for economic or ecological reasons, and the industry demands high efficiency. Our team conducted comprehensive research on Artificial Intelligence usage in waste detection and classification to fight the world's waste pollution problem. As a result an open-source framework that enables the detection and classification of litter was developed. The final pipeline consists of two neural networks: one that detects litter and a second responsible for litter classification. Waste is classified into seven categories: bio, glass, metal and plastic, non-recyclable, other, paper and unknown. Our approach achieves up to 70% of average precision in waste detection and around 75% of classification accuracy on the test dataset. The code used in the studies is publicly available online.

  This work is aimed at creating a system that can classify different types of plastics by using picture analysis, in particular, black plastics of the type Polystyrene (PS) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) A Convolutional Neural Network has been tested and retrained, obtaining a validation accuracy of 95%. Using a separate test set, average accuracy goes down to 86.6%, but a further look at the results shows that the ABS type is correctly classified 100% of the time, so it is the PS type that accumulates all the errors.
