Testing with Thermal Images

To verify YOLO can detect people in thermal images, we fed a video of people through a thermal camera, as well as an image of a close up face through the detection network. As can be seen from the images below, YOLO was able to detect the people in the images. The accuracy isn't completely there, but the proof of concept is what is needed. To increase the accuracy, we will need to retrain YOLO on thermal imaging.
