This paper examines the utilization of YOLOv (You Only Look Once) and DeepSORT (Deep Simple Online and Real-Time Tracking) algorithms for the real-time detection and analysis of the purchasing penchant in brick-and-mortar market surroundings. By leveraging these algorithms, stores can track customer behavior, identify popular products, and monitor high-traffic areas, enabling businesses to adapt quickly to customer preferences and optimize store layout and inventory management. The methodology involves the integration of YOLOv5 for accurate and rapid object detection combined with DeepSORT for the effective tracking of customer movements and interactions with products. Information collected in in-store cameras and sensors is handled to detect tendencies in customer behavior, like repeatedly inspected products, periods expended in specific intervals, and product handling. The results indicate a modest improvement in customer engagement, with conversion rates increasing by approximately 3 percentage points, and a decline in inventory waste levels, from 88% to 75%, after system implementation. This study provides essential insights into the further integration of algorithm technology in physical retail locations and demonstrates the revolutionary potential of real-time behavior tracking in the retail industry. This research determines the foundation for future developments in functional strategies and customer experience optimization by offering a solid framework for creating intelligent retail systems.  \nKeywords: DeepSORT; YOLOv5; e-commerce; machine learning; recommender system  \n1. Introduction  \nRecently, deep learning methods have been proven to provide the most effective performance in many problems. With rapid advancements in artificial intelligence technology, brick-and-mortar stores face substantial difficulty compared with the immense data-driven understanding accessible to online vendors [1,2] .
