However, this approach, high costs are incurred sufficient order avoid blind spots, a great deal time human effort wasted identifying possible targets. Further, most AI-based search systems focus on improve body recognition model, without considering speed up shorten efficiency, which aim study. Hence, by exploiting high-mobility characteristics unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), study proposes an integrated YOLOv5 hierarchical human-weight-first (HWF) path planning framework serve as efficient UAV searching system, works dividing whole process into two levels.
