Abstract

Nocturnal durian theft poses a significant challenge for farmers, leading to substantial economic losses. This research proposes a deep learning approach for night-time durian theft detection, leveraging the capabilities of the YOLOv8 object detection network. A unique dataset was collected in a nocturnal environment, simulating actual theft scenarios, including actors carrying tools like sickles and sacks, with their faces obscured by cloth and hats. This presented complex detection challenges. To optimize detection performance under these demanding conditions, various YOLOv8 variants (n, s, m, l, and x) were extensively evaluated. Experimental results consistently show that YOLOv8-x achieved the best detection performance, with the highest mean Average Precision (mAP) compared to other variants. These findings highlight the potential of YOLOv8-x as an effective and robust solution for preventing nocturnal durian theft, contributing to enhanced agricultural security and mitigating losses for farmers. This study paves the way for developing computer vision-based early warning systems to protect agricultural assets.
