FasterRes-FPN: A Deep Learning Approach for Microplastic Pollution Surveillance in Water Bodies

Lecture notes in networks and systems 2026
Manav Israni, Anushka Biswas, Shruti Renuse, V. Premanand

Summary

Researchers developed FasterRes-FPN, a deep learning model for automated microplastic detection in water bodies, offering a faster and more cost-effective alternative to traditional microscopy and spectroscopy methods for large-scale aquatic pollution surveillance.

Microplastic pollution poses escalating risks to aquatic ecosystems and human health, yet existing analytical methods such as microscopy and spectroscopy remain too slow and costly for large-scale surveillance. We introduce FasterRes-FPN, an end-to-end...
