DIGERv2: Anchor-Free Multiscale Construction Activity Recognition from Still Images

This research is like giving a safety inspector super-vision: a computer looks at construction site photos and automatically figures out what activities are happening, without needing pre-drawn boxes around workers or equipment.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Manually reviewing construction site photos to understand what tasks are being performed, track progress, or spot unsafe behavior is slow and inconsistent. This work aims to automatically recognize construction activities directly from single images, improving monitoring, documentation, and safety analytics.

Value Drivers

Reduced manual monitoring time on site imageryMore consistent, objective tracking of construction activitiesFaster incident and safety review from photosBetter data for productivity, planning, and compliance analytics

Strategic Moat

Research-grade computer-vision model architecture and trained weights specific to construction activities and multiscale site scenes; potential proprietary labeled image datasets of construction activities.
