# Waste Detection

#### **Waste Detection**

* **Purpose**: The waste detection model helps identify and classify waste materials in images or videos.
* **How it works**: Similar to object detection models, it is trained to recognize different types of waste, such as recyclable materials (plastic, glass, paper) or organic waste. The model can detect waste in various environments like urban areas, landfills, or recycling facilities.
* **Applications**: Useful in waste management systems, environmental monitoring, and smart city solutions to promote efficient recycling or waste sorting.
