Abstract—In this study, we propose an enhanced object detection framework by integrating Faster Recurrent Convolutional Neural Network (F-RCNN) with a hybrid Particle Swarm-Firefly Algorithm (PSFA) for optimization. The model aims to improve both detection accuracy and computational efficiency for large-scale image datasets. The framework begins with preprocessing and segmentation using K-means clustering, followed by feature extraction via F-RCNN. To optimize the network’s training process, we incorporate PSFA, leveraging the exploration capabilities of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the adaptive brightness-based search mechanism of the Firefly Algorithm (FA). The proposed model is evaluated using PASCAL VOC 2007 dataset, COCO dataset and ImageNet dataset. Objects like car, ship, cat, dog, horse, person etc are focussed and recognition of the objects in images are done from different class of objects. The integration of optimization with deep learning method gives a promising improvement in obtaining the objects of various classes. The mean average precision in detection of objects is evaluated using matlab software tool. The overall average precision rate achieved is 84.6% for PASCAL VOC 2007 DS, 86.8% for COCO DS and 87.4% for ImageNet DS which is higher compared to other techniques like faster recurrent convolutional neural network (RCNN), Mask recurrent convolutional neural network (M-RCNN) and Region-Based Fully Convolutional Network (R-FCN).
