[0050] The terminal device 200 and the server 100 can be connected via the Internet to achieve mutual communication. Optionally, the above-mentioned Internet uses standard communication technology and / or protocol. The Internet is usually the Internet, but it can also be any network, including but not limited to any combination of a local area network (LAN), a metropolitan area network (MAN), a wide area network (WAN), a mobile, wired or wireless network, a dedicated network or a virtual private network.

[0054] In addition, the application architecture diagram in the embodiment of the present disclosure is intended to more clearly illustrate the technical solution in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure. Of course, for other application architectures and business applications, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is also applicable to similar problems.

[0055] The following is a non-restrictive description of a three-dimensional visual information fusion optimization system for image analysis provided according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure through several examples or embodiments. As described below, different features in these specific examples or embodiments can be combined with each other without conflicting with each other to obtain new examples or embodiments, and these new examples or embodiments also fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0056] As two common data sources, visible light images and infrared images have unique information characteristics and advantages. Specifically, visible light images are easy to obtain, have high image resolution, strong contrast, and can reflect more detailed information such as color and texture; however, the imaging quality of visible light images is easily affected by conditions such as light intensity and weather, and does not have the ability to work 24 hours a day. For example, at night, in shadows, and under conditions such as cloud cover, the image quality decreases, and it is difficult to obtain effective target information. In this case, infrared images obtained by infrared sensors can be used as observation data sources. Among them, infrared sensors can detect infrared wavelengths that cannot be perceived by the human eye. The brightness value of the obtained infrared image is related to the temperature of the object. Generally, the higher the brightness, the higher the temperature of the area; the acquisition of infrared images is not easily affected by extreme weather. Under observation conditions such as night, shadows, and cloud cover, the image can still obtain effective target information and has the ability to work 24 hours a day. However, compared with visible light images, infrared images usually have lower resolution and contrast, less texture detail information, and under good observation conditions with sufficient light and no obstruction, visible light images can usually obtain clearer and richer target information.

[0057] Therefore, the image information obtained by a single sensor has its own limitations and one-sidedness, and cannot meet the detection requirements under actual complex scene conditions. If the multi-source image data can be fused, the key information of the multi-source image can be fully utilized, and the complementarity between the multi-source images can be used to make up for the lack of single-source image information. In this regard, the technical concept of this application is: using image processing technology and intelligent algorithms to perform image semantic understanding and complementary fusion of the visible light image and infrared image of the observation area, so as to intelligently generate an information fusion optimized image of the observation area.

[0058] Based on this, Figure 2 The structural schematic diagram of a three-dimensional visual information fusion optimization system 800 for image analysis in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The three-dimensional visual information fusion optimization system 800 for image analysis includes: a multi-source image acquisition module 810, which is used to acquire visible light images and infrared images of the observation area; an image feature extraction module 820, which is used to extract image features from the infrared image and the visible light image to obtain a visible light image semantic feature map and an infrared image semantic feature map; a multi-source information complementary fusion module 830, which is used to obtain a multi-source complementary semantic feature map by passing the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map through a global interactive attention fusion module; and an image optimization module 840, which is used to generate an information fusion optimized image of the observation area based on the multi-source complementary semantic feature map. It should be understood that the design idea of ​​this system is to use two different types of images, visible light and infrared, to extract image features and perform information fusion to achieve a more comprehensive and accurate image analysis and optimization purpose. The application of the global interactive attention fusion module can help the system better integrate information from different sources and improve the effect and accuracy of the analysis.

[0059] Specifically, in the technical solution of the present application, first, a visible light image of the observation area collected by a visible light sensor carried by an aircraft is obtained; and an infrared image of the observation area collected by an infrared sensor carried by the aircraft is obtained. Among them, the visible light image can provide rich color information and detail features, which is helpful for accurate classification and identification of ground objects. Infrared images can reflect the thermal distribution of the target, which is very helpful for identifying targets with different thermal characteristics, such as monitoring and analysis at night or in low light conditions. Visible light images and infrared images are complementary. They can provide different types of information and features. By fusing the information expressed by the two types of images, the characteristics of the observation area can be understood more comprehensively and accurately.

[0060] Correspondingly, the multi-source image acquisition module 810 includes: a visible light unit, used to acquire the visible light image of the observation area collected by the visible light sensor carried by the aircraft; and an infrared unit, used to acquire the infrared image of the observation area collected by the infrared sensor carried by the aircraft.

[0061] It should be understood that infrared occurs in the infrared spectrum of the electromagnetic spectrum, and mainly senses infrared rays reflected by objects on the ground. Since infrared rays have a long wavelength and strong penetration in the atmosphere, infrared photography is not affected by smoke, and images of the ground can still be captured through a very thick atmosphere. However, there are some problems with infrared images, such as low contrast and blurred visual effects. In the technical solution of the present application, it is expected that the infrared image is subjected to equalization correction based on prior information to obtain a corrected infrared image. Here, the equalization correction processing based on prior information is to enhance the infrared image so that each pixel of the infrared image can be evenly distributed in the entire grayscale level range, thereby improving the contrast and brightness of the image.

[0062] That is to say, it is hoped that the image histogram distribution of the corrected infrared image is balanced, that is, ideally, the probability distribution of pixel values ​​in the image obeys uniform distribution. Therefore, in a specific example of the present application, the infrared image is enhanced by histogram equalization based on the prior condition of uniform distribution.

[0063] Then, the visible light image is passed through an image feature extractor based on a convolutional neural network model to obtain a semantic feature map of the visible light image. Among them, the convolutional neural network (CNN) model has a powerful feature extraction capability. Through the CNN model, high-level and abstract features can be learned from the visible light image, which helps to better understand the image content. Specifically, the CNN model usually includes multiple layers of convolution and pooling layers, which can extract the modal neighborhood structure and regional features in the visible light image step by step. At the same time, the corrected infrared image is passed through the image feature extractor based on the convolutional neural network model to obtain a semantic feature map of the infrared image. Similarly, the feature extraction characteristics of the convolutional neural network (CNN) are used to learn abstract features in the corrected infrared image, such as temperature distribution.

[0064] Accordingly, the image feature extraction module 820 includes: an equalization correction unit for performing equalization correction on the infrared image based on prior information to obtain a corrected infrared image; and a feature encoding unit for performing feature encoding on the visible light image and the corrected infrared image using a deep learning network model to obtain the semantic feature map of the visible light image and the semantic feature map of the infrared image. It should be understood that equalization correction based on prior information is a correction method that aims to improve the quality and accuracy of an image by utilizing prior knowledge or previously obtained information. In image processing, equalization correction is generally used to adjust the contrast and brightness of an image to better display the details and features in the image. In this system, the equalization correction unit in the image feature extraction module 820 processes the infrared image. Specifically, equalization correction based on prior information may utilize previously collected knowledge about the characteristics of the infrared image, such as sensor characteristics, environmental conditions, etc., to adjust the brightness and contrast of the infrared image to eliminate possible noise or unevenness, thereby obtaining a clearer and more accurate corrected infrared image. This prior information can be empirical knowledge, statistical data, physical models, etc., which is used to guide the correction process to ensure that the corrected infrared image can better adapt to the subsequent feature extraction and analysis process. In this way, the system can more effectively utilize previously acquired knowledge and improve the efficiency and accuracy of image processing.

[0065] The equalization correction unit is used to process the infrared image using the following equalization correction formula to obtain the corrected infrared image; wherein the equalization correction formula is:

[0066] f θ =f a +u θ ⊙f b

[0067] Among them, f a is the gray level corresponding to the minimum value of each pixel in the infrared image, f b is the gray level corresponding to the maximum value of each pixel in the infrared image, u θ is the θth value randomly sampled from a uniform distribution, f θ is the θth pixel in the corrected infrared image, and ⊙ represents point multiplication by position.

[0068] The feature encoding unit is used to: pass the visible light image through an image feature extractor based on a convolutional neural network model to obtain a semantic feature map of the visible light image; and pass the corrected infrared image through the image feature extractor based on a convolutional neural network model to obtain a semantic feature map of the infrared image. Specifically, the image feature extractor based on a convolutional neural network model includes an input layer, a convolution layer, an activation layer, a pooling layer, and an output layer.

[0069] It is worth mentioning that the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a deep learning neural network that is specifically used to process data with a grid-like structure (such as images). The convolutional neural network contains the following main parts: 1. Input layer: used to receive raw input data, such as image data; 2. Convolution layer: extract features in the image by applying convolution operations. The convolution operation can capture local features at different locations in the image, thereby achieving translation invariance; 3. Activation layer: activation functions such as ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit) are usually added after the convolution layer to introduce nonlinearity and increase the expressive power of the network; 4. Pooling layer: pooling operations (such as maximum pooling or average pooling) are used to reduce the size of the feature map, reduce computational complexity, and retain important features; 5. Output layer: the final output network prediction result, which can be a classification label, regression value, etc., depending on the task of the network. In the system, the image feature extractor based on the convolutional neural network model uses the structure and characteristics of CNN to extract features from visible light images and rectified infrared images to obtain their semantic feature maps. These semantic feature maps can capture high-level semantic information in the image, which is helpful for subsequent image analysis and processing tasks. By using CNN, the system can automatically learn and extract features in the image without manually designing feature extractors, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of image processing.

[0070] Subsequently, the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map are fused through a global interactive attention fusion module to obtain a multi-source complementary semantic feature map. That is, the unique image semantic features contained in the visible light image and the infrared image are fused through the global interactive attention fusion module, and an attention mechanism is introduced to enhance the focus on important features, thereby comprehensively utilizing the complementary information between the two, effectively integrating the semantic features of the visible light image and the infrared image, and avoiding information loss.

[0071] Accordingly, the multi-source information complementary fusion module 830 is used to: process the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map according to the following information complementary fusion formula to obtain an information complementary representation feature vector; wherein the information complementary fusion formula is:

[0072]

[0073] Among them, U1 and U2 are the semantic feature map of the visible light image and the semantic feature map of the infrared image respectively, and U is a complementary fusion feature map. represents cascade processing, S c represents the cth eigenvalue in the information complementary characterization eigenvector, F gp (U c ) represents the global mean pooling process for the c-th feature matrix in the complementary fusion feature map, H and W are the height and width of the c-th feature matrix in the complementary fusion feature map, respectively, and U c (i, j) is the eigenvalue at the position (i, j) in the cth feature matrix in the complementary fusion feature map; the information complementary representation feature vector is activated to obtain a condensed information complementary representation feature vector; and the visible light image semantic feature map, the infrared image semantic feature map and the condensed information complementary representation feature vector are processed using the following attention weight application formula to obtain the multi-source complementary semantic feature map; wherein the attention weight application formula is:

[0074]

[0075] Among them, a c and b c represents the weighted probability vectors of the semantic feature map U1 of the visible light image and the semantic feature map U2 of the infrared image, Acz represents the vector element of the c channel corresponding to the semantic feature map of the visible light image in the condensed information complementary representation feature vector, Bcz represents the vector element of the c channel corresponding to the semantic feature map of the infrared image in the condensed information complementary representation feature vector, F c is the multi-source complementary semantic feature map, Indicates cascade processing.

[0076] Then, the multi-source complementary semantic feature map is subjected to global mean pooling processing to obtain a multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix; and the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix is ​​passed through an AIGC-based image generator to obtain an information fusion optimized image of the observation area. Among them, the information in the multi-source complementary semantic feature map can be aggregated by global mean pooling to obtain representative overall features. This global mean pooling processing method can also reduce the dimension of the multi-source complementary semantic feature map, so that the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix can be directly used as the input of the AIGC-based image generator to generate the corresponding information fusion optimized image.

[0077] Correspondingly, the image optimization module 840 includes: a feature structure balancing and regularizing unit, used to perform dimensionality reduction and optimization processing on the multi-source complementary semantic feature map to obtain an optimized multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix; and an image generation unit, used to pass the optimized multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix through an AIGC-based image generator to obtain an information fusion optimized image of the observation area.

[0078] It is worth mentioning that the main functions of AIGC include: Instance Normalization: Instance normalization is a normalization technique used to adjust the feature response of the intermediate layer of the neural network to make it more stable and easier to train. Instance normalization can improve the quality and stability of image generation and help generate more realistic and clear images. Group convolution: Group convolution is a structure in convolutional neural networks that divides input channels into multiple groups. The channels in each group share weights. Group convolution helps reduce the number of parameters and improve computational efficiency while maintaining the network's ability to extract features. By combining instance normalization and group convolution, AIGC can provide better performance and effects in image generation tasks, help optimize the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix, and thus generate information fusion optimized images of the observed area. This technology can improve the accuracy, clarity, and realism of image generation, which is of great significance for image processing and analysis.

[0079] Among them, in one example, the feature structure balance and regularization unit includes: a pooling dimensionality reduction subunit, used to perform global mean pooling processing on the multi-source complementary semantic feature map to obtain a multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix; and a feature distribution optimization subunit, used to perform feature distribution clustering optimization on the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix to obtain the optimized multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix.

[0080] In the above technical scheme, the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map respectively express the image semantic features of the visible light image and the corrected infrared image in the spatial distribution dimension of the feature matrix, and the channel distribution of the convolutional neural network model is followed between each feature matrix. Therefore, after the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map pass through the global interactive attention fusion module, global interactive attention fusion will be mainly performed based on the spatial distribution of image semantic features. However, considering the difference in the source image semantic spatial distribution of the visible light image and the corrected infrared image themselves, the inconsistent image semantic feature distribution of the visible light image semantic feature map and the infrared image semantic feature map in the spatial distribution dimension of the feature matrix will also make the fused image semantic feature spatial distribution of the multi-source complementary semantic feature map show a certain local distribution representation independence.

[0081] Therefore, when the multi-source complementary semantic feature map is subjected to global mean pooling processing to obtain the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix, since the mean processing along the channel further strengthens the feature distribution in the spatial dimension of the feature matrix, the independence of the local feature distribution representation of the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix will be more significant, so that when the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix passes through the AIGC-based image generator as a whole, the mapping convergence of the semantic probability space domain of the generated image will be difficult due to the independence of the local feature distribution of the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix, thereby affecting the training speed of the generator and the image quality of the final generated image.

[0082] Based on this, the applicant of the present application performs clustering optimization on the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix, that is, first clustering the eigenvalues ​​of the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix, for example, clustering based on the distance between eigenvalues, and then optimizing based on the in-class and out-of-class representations of the clustered features.

[0083] Accordingly, in a specific example, the feature distribution optimization subunit is further used to: perform feature distribution clustering optimization on the multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix according to the following optimization formula to obtain the optimized multi-source complementary semantic feature matrix; wherein the optimization formula is:

[0084]
