Focused on addressing the challenges posed by escalating urbanization and burgeoning vehicular density, our study introduces a carefully curated dataset comprising images of parking spaces annotated with bounding box masks and occupancy labels. The methodology unfolds across distinct phases, commencing with a comprehensive dataset description that unveils its diversity and intricacies. Feature extraction techniques, harnessing the capabilities of cutting-edge architectures such as AlexNet and ResNet-50, play a pivotal role in enhancing pattern discernment, which is essential for accurate detection. The crux of our approach lies in the integration of Neural Networks with optimization algorithms, including Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), and the innovative Dipper Throated Optimization (DTO). Results are presented without explicit mention of tables and figures, strategically emphasizing the methodology's effectiveness in enhancing parking space detection accuracy. Notably, Dipper Throated Optimization (DTO) emerges as a key contributor to optimized Neural Network performance, achieving an impressive accuracy of 0.9908. This research contributes significantly to the ongoing discourse on intelligent urban planning and sets a promising trajectory for the future of efficient parking space utilization in modern cities. 2023 2023 16 25 10.54216/JAIM.060202 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/28/show/2339
