Embodiment Construction

[0013] Aspects of embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of detecting localized regions in an image of one or more objects using a weakly supervised network. A classifier network, such as a convolutional neural network (CNN), can be trained to classify images as including features that classify objects or have conceptual classes. The captured images may be processed by a network of classifiers to classify the content of the images according to one or more categories. For example, classification can be applied to identify the presence of any anomalies in an image relative to the normal state for which it was trained. Anomalies may correspond to defects in objects depicted in the image, or to anomalies detected within normal settings. Without a priori knowledge (what shape or form the anomaly takes in the image), gradient-based inversion or backpropagation of the classifier network can be applied to discover the intrinsic properties of normal and abnormal parts ...

Abstract

A system and method for visual anomaly localization in a test image includes generating, in plurality of scaled iterations, attention maps for a test image using a trained classifier network, using image-level. A current attention map is generated using an inversion of the classifier network on a condition that a forward pass of the test image in the classifier network detects a first class. One or more attention regions of the current attention map may be extracted and resized as a sub-image. For each scaled iteration, extraction of one or more regions of a current attention map is performedon a condition that the current attention map is significantly different than the preceding attention map. Visual localization of a region for the class in the test image is based on one or more of the attention maps

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to artificial intelligence. More specifically, the present invention relates to the application of artificial intelligence to visual recognition systems. Background technique [0002] Visual recognition systems can apply machine learning-based methods, such as convolutional neural networks, which can involve training the system to recognize features or objects of interest in images based on learned classifications. Classification can include tangible attributes, such as identifying the presence of a particular animate or inanimate object. For example, a system can be trained to learn one or more classifications (eg, flowers, dogs, chairs), and once trained, it analyzes a series of test images to identify which images include objects of the trained classifications. [0003] Visual localization with machine learning assistance can be applied to detect anomalies within images or identify unusual objects potentially causing ...
