Abstract

Accurate detection of humans and animals is critical for enhancing the efficiency of flood rescue operations, enabling a quicker response and improving disaster management efforts. This study presents a model that identifies and counts humans and animals in flood-affected regions while sending immediate email alerts to rescue teams for prompt action. The alert system enhances communication by providing real-time updates to rescue teams, enabling swift action. This not only boosts operational efficiency but also facilitates the optimal deployment of resources, enabling critical areas to be addressed effectively. The system in this study uses YOLO11, the most recent version in the You Only Look Once (YOLO) series of deep learning models. It is trained on a diverse dataset featuring humans and a variety of animal species, including dogs, cows, horses, and goats. The model’s performance is evaluated using key metrics such as precision, recall, F1 score, and mean Average Precision (mAP). The model achieved a precision of 92%, demonstrating its suitability for real-time flood rescue.
