Thermal imaging is a cutting-edge technology which has the capability to detect objects in any environmental conditions, such as smoke, fog, smog, etc. This technology finds its importance mainly during nighttime since it does not require light to detect the objects. Applications of this technology span into various sectors, most importantly in border security to detect any incoming hazards. Object detection and classification are generally difficult with thermal imaging. In this paper, a one-stage deep convolution network-based object detection and classification called retina net is introduced. Existing surveys are based on object detection using infrared information obtained from the objects. This research is focused on detecting and identifying objects from thermal images and surveillance data.
