• Title: An Industrial Workplace Alerting and Monitoring Platform to Prevent Workplace Injury and Accidents
• Authors: Sanjay Adhikesaven
• Abstract summary: We propose an industrial workplace alerting and monitoring platform to detect personal protective equipment (PPE) use and classify unsafe activity. Our proposed method is the first to analyze prolonged actions involving multiple people or objects. We propose the first open source annotated data set with video data from industrial workplaces annotated with the action classifications and detected PPE.

• Abstract: Workplace accidents are a critical problem that causes many deaths, injuries, and financial losses. Climate change has a severe impact on industrial workers, partially caused by global warming. To reduce such casualties, it is important to proactively find unsafe environments where injuries could occur by detecting the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and identifying unsafe activities. Thus, we propose an industrial workplace alerting and monitoring platform to detect PPE use and classify unsafe activity in group settings involving multiple humans and objects over a long period of time. Our proposed method is the first to analyze prolonged actions involving multiple people or objects. It benefits from combining pose estimation with PPE detection in one platform. Additionally, we propose the first open source annotated data set with video data from industrial workplaces annotated with the action classifications and detected PPE. The proposed system can be implemented within the surveillance cameras already present in industrial settings, making it a practical and effective solution.

  Collaborative perception (CP) is a promising method for safe connected and autonomous driving. We propose a new paradigm for malicious agent detection that effectively identifies malicious agents at the feature level. We also develop a robust defense method called CP-Guard+, which enhances the margin between the representations of benign and malicious features.

  We are exploring the potential of head-mounted augmented reality to facilitate safety inspections on high-rise construction sites. A particular concern in the industry is inspecting perimeter safety screens on higher levels of construction sites, intended to prevent falls of people and objects. We aim to support workers performing this inspection task by tracking which parts of the safety screens have been inspected. We use machine learning to automatically detect gaps in the perimeter screens that require closer inspection and remediation and to automate reporting.

  We focus on model-agnostic explainability methods for object detection models and propose D-P, an extension of the Morphological Fragmental Perturbation Pyramid (P) technique to generate explanations. We evaluate these methods on real-world industrial and robotic datasets, examining the influence of parameters such as the number of masks, model size, and image resolution on the quality of explanations.
