Evaluating RF-DETR and YOLOv26 for Rip Current Detection and Segmentation

This application study evaluates two existing instance-segmentation frameworks, RF-DETR (Region Focused Detection Transformer) and YOLOv26, for rip current detection in complex marine imagery. Both models were fine-tuned from pretrained weights on the same 18,389 training images. YOLOv26 used the 4349 labeled images as...
