Two-Stage Versus One-Stage Architectures for Detecting Small, Distant Ground Vehicles on Edge Hardware: A Controlled Multi-Seed Evaluation of Accuracy, Speed, and Corruption Robustness

Detecting small, distant ground vehicles in real time on edge hardware requires models that jointly balance accuracy, computational efficiency, and robustness to degraded imagery; therefore, deployment suitability cannot be inferred from accuracy on general-purpose benchmarks alo...
