Publication Open Access YOLO-MOTF: Motion-temporal fusion for dynamic object detection with a moving camera for assistive wheelchairs(Elsevier B.V., 2026-03-09) Tennekoon, S; Wedasingha, N; Welhenge, A; Abhayasinghe, N; Murray, IDynamic object detection is fundamental to advancing vision-based navigation systems, particularly in environments where the camera itself is in motion. Despite progress in detection algorithms, existing approaches often struggle with challenges such as egomotion, short-term occlusions, temporal discontinuities, and computational cost. This paper presents YOLO-MOTF, a novel knowledge-based model that integrates spatial features with motion cues, especially for operation under moving camera conditions. The framework incorporates a hybrid motion compensation strategy to suppress camera-induced distortions and an occlusion handling buffer to preserve object trajectories through discontinuities. Additionally, a motion attention gating mechanism selectively reinforces moving object predictions by intersecting fused motion masks with semantic outputs. The proposed system achieves an F1 score of 88.6% and a 93% reduction in flow processing compared to dense flow methods, underscoring its robustness and efficiency in dynamic environments. Beyond theoretical contributions, the model demonstrates direct applicability in real-world knowledge-based decision systems, including healthcare applications such as assistive wheelchair navigation, as well as assistive robotics, autonomous navigation, and surveillance.Publication Embargo Child Head Gesture Classification through Transformers(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-11-04) Wedasingha, N; Samarasinghe, P; Singarathnam, D; Papandrea, M; Puiatti, A; Seneviratne, LThis paper proposes a transformer network for head pose classification (HPC) which outperforms the existing SoA for HPC. This robust model is then extended to overcome the limited child data challenge by applying transfer learning resulting in an accuracy of 95.34% for child HPC in the wild.
