ProvRain: Rain-Adaptive Denoising and Vehicle Detection via MobileNet-UNet and Faster R-CNN

ProvRain introduces a rain-adaptive detection pipeline using a lightweight MobileNet-U-Net denoiser and Faster R-CNN classifier. Designed for nighttime driving under severe rain, the method improves recall, accuracy, and early-warning success while remaining efficient enough for real-time automotive hardware.

PROXI-NAV: Proximity-Aware Navigation with Audio-Visual Sensing Intelligence

PROXI-NAV is a proximity-aware navigation system combining a multi-head YOLOv8 network for obstacle detection and pavement segmentation with FastDepth-based monocular depth estimation. Deployed on the NVIDIA Jetson Nano, it delivers low-latency real-time auditory navigation feedback for the visually impaired, enabling safer and more autonomous mobility.
