[0002] New energy vehicles require battery charging, which can lead to abnormal situations such as battery combustion and charging facility overheating in parking lots. Traditional methods typically involve manual monitoring of parked new energy vehicles. However, the number of service personnel is limited, and monitoring can only be conducted at long intervals (e.g., half an hour or an hour), sometimes failing to detect problems in a timely manner. Parking lots are usually equipped with multiple video surveillance cameras. Monitoring personnel can monitor parked new energy vehicles and related charging facilities, summarize and report any problems found, and facilitate timely handling of abnormalities to minimize losses. However, due to the large number of video monitors and the small size of each monitor's display, it is difficult to accurately identify details in the video footage; furthermore, a limited number of monitoring personnel cannot simultaneously monitor numerous video feeds, resulting in the inability to detect abnormalities in a timely manner.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] It should also be understood that the terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0033] It should also be further understood that the term "and / or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes such combinations.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. As shown in the figures, an embodiment of this invention provides a parking lot monitoring method based on image recognition. This method is applied to a management server 10. As shown in Figure 2, the management server 10 establishes network connections with at least one video monitor 20 to transmit data information. The management server 10 is a server located within the parking lot used to acquire video streams collected by each video monitor 20 and perform anomaly monitoring. The management server 10 can be a terminal device with video image processing and information display capabilities, such as a desktop computer or a monitoring management terminal. The video monitor 20 is a surveillance camera installed inside the parking lot, at the parking lot entrance, etc. The video monitor 20 can acquire real-time monitoring images to obtain video streams and transmit them to the management server 10. As shown in Figure 1, the method includes steps S110 to S170.

[0035] S110. Extract the corresponding video image from the video stream input by the video monitor according to the preset parking monitoring cycle.

[0036] According to a preset parking monitoring cycle, the video monitor extracts corresponding video images from the video stream input by the video monitor. The video monitor transmits the acquired video images to the management server in real time. The management server receives a set of video streams, with each set of video streams corresponding to one video monitor. The management server extracts corresponding video images from the video streams according to the preset parking monitoring cycle, so that one video image can be extracted from each set of video streams in one monitoring session. For example, the parking monitoring cycle can be set to 1 minute, then one video image can be extracted from each video stream every 1 minute.

[0037] S120. Extract corresponding image features from each of the video images according to the preset image feature extraction model.

[0038] Image features are extracted from each video image according to a pre-set image feature extraction model. Furthermore, image features can be extracted from each video image using the image feature extraction model, and these image features can be used to characterize the features of the video images. Specifically, the image feature extraction model consists of convolutional layers and pooling layers, which are alternately configured. The convolutional layers upsample the pixel values ​​of pixels in the video image to obtain lower-resolution data values; one upsampling process reduces both the number of horizontal and vertical pixels. The pooling layers reduce the dimensionality of the upsampled data values, i.e., perform dimensionality reduction; one dimensionality reduction process keeps the number of horizontal pixels unchanged while reducing the number of vertical pixels. For example, by extracting features from a 1920×1080 resolution video image using the image feature extraction model, a set of 1×256 arrays is obtained as image features; then, the image features corresponding to each video image can be obtained through this image feature extraction rule.

[0039] S130. Obtain the environmental features corresponding to the video monitor to which each video image belongs, according to the preset environmental feature acquisition rules.

[0040] According to preset environmental feature acquisition rules, environmental features corresponding to the video monitors to which each video image belongs can be obtained. Furthermore, environmental features corresponding to each video image can be obtained according to the environmental feature acquisition rules. These environmental features are used to characterize the environment in which each video image is located. During this process, the video monitor to which the video image belongs can be determined, and the environmental features corresponding to each video monitor can be obtained according to the environmental feature acquisition rules.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, step S130 specifically includes the following sub-steps: determining the corresponding location type feature based on the installation location of the video surveillance device to which the video image belongs; obtaining matching illumination features from the environmental feature acquisition rules based on the current time point and the installation location corresponding to the video image, as the location illumination feature corresponding to the video image; and combining the location type feature and the location illumination feature of the video image into the environmental feature of the video image.

[0042] Specifically, the location type can be determined based on the installation location of the video surveillance camera to which the video image belongs. Location types can include entrances / exits, surface parking lots, underground parking lots, underground equipment rooms, etc. Each location type corresponds to a location type feature, which is a numerical value. Since a location type corresponds to one or more installation locations, the corresponding location type can be determined based on the installation location of the video monitor. The location type feature can then be obtained based on the location type corresponding to each video image.

[0043] Furthermore, based on the current time point and the installation location corresponding to the video image, matching location lighting features are obtained from the environmental feature acquisition rules. These location lighting features are used to characterize the lighting at the location where the video image was acquired. Specifically, the lighting type of the installation location is obtained. The lighting types configured in the environmental feature acquisition rules include enclosed, semi-enclosed, and open types. Each lighting type corresponds to one or more location types. Enclosed types include underground parking lots, underground equipment rooms, etc.; semi-enclosed types include entrances and exits, etc.; and open types include surface parking lots, etc. The ambient light intensity is determined based on the current time. Different times correspond to different sunlight intensities, resulting in different ambient light intensities. The environmental feature acquisition rules also include the ambient light intensity corresponding to different time points. For example, if the current time is 8:00 to 16:29, the ambient light intensity is determined to be 10; if the current time is 16:30 to 17:59, the ambient light intensity is determined to be 8; if the current time is 18:00 to 19:29, the ambient light intensity is determined to be 5; and if the current time is 19:30 to 5:29 the next day, the ambient light intensity is determined to be 2. If the lighting type of the installation site is enclosed, the corresponding site lighting feature is determined to be "1"; if the lighting type of the installation site is semi-enclosed, the corresponding site lighting feature is determined to be [r / 2+1], where r is the ambient light intensity corresponding to the current time, and [x] is the rounding symbol for x. If the lighting type of the installation site is open, then the lighting characteristics of the installation site are determined to be the ambient light intensity at the current time.

[0044] By combining the location type features and location lighting features of a video image, the environmental features of the video image can be obtained.

[0045] In a specific embodiment, after combining the location type feature and location lighting feature of the video image into the environmental feature of the video image, the method further includes: obtaining weather information corresponding to the current time point; obtaining weather features that match the weather information from the environmental feature acquisition rules; determining whether the installation location corresponding to the video image is an open location; if the installation location of the video image is an open location, adding the weather feature to the environmental feature of the video image; if the installation location of the video image is not an open location, adding pre-stored filler features to the environmental feature of the video image.

[0046] Furthermore, to enrich the environmental features of the video image, weather information corresponding to the current time point can be obtained. The environmental feature acquisition rules also include weather features matching each piece of weather information; for example, sunny weather corresponds to a weather feature of "10", cloudy weather to "8", overcast weather to "6", rainy weather to "4", and snowy weather to "2". Further, it is determined whether the installation location corresponding to the video image is an open location. If it is an open location, the weather features are added to the environmental features of the video image. If the installation location is not an open location, a padding feature is added to the environmental features of the video image. For example, the padding feature could be "0".

[0047] S140. Combine the image features and environmental features of each video image and input them into a preset anomaly recognition model to perform anomaly recognition on each video image and obtain the corresponding monitoring recognition result.

[0048] The image features and environmental features of each video image are combined and input into a preset anomaly recognition model to perform anomaly recognition on each video image and obtain the corresponding monitoring recognition result. Furthermore, the image features and environmental features of the video images can be combined, and the combined data information can be input into the anomaly recognition model; a set of data information corresponding to each video image is input into the anomaly recognition model, and the anomaly recognition model can perform anomaly recognition on a set of data information for each video image, thereby obtaining the monitoring recognition result.

[0049] In a specific embodiment, step S140 specifically includes the following sub-steps: combining the image features with the environmental features to obtain combined features; inputting the feature values ​​contained in the combined features to the corresponding input node in the anomaly recognition model, so as to obtain the corresponding anomaly probability value as the corresponding monitoring and recognition result through the anomaly recognition model.

[0050] Specifically, image features and environmental features can be combined. Image features are a 1×M dimensional array (e.g., a 1×256 dimensional array), and environmental features consist of multiple feature values. The combination yields a 1×(M+N) array, which is the combined feature, where N is the number of feature values ​​in the environmental features. The feature values ​​contained in the combined feature are input to the input nodes of the anomaly detection model, so the number of feature values ​​in the combined feature is equal to the number of input nodes. The anomaly detection model includes an intermediate layer and an output node. The intermediate layer contains at least one layer of intermediate nodes, which are arranged in a series of intermediate nodes. The intermediate layer performs correlation analysis on the feature values ​​input from the input nodes, and the output node outputs the corresponding anomaly probability value. The anomaly probability value is the probability of an anomaly existing in the video image; a higher anomaly probability value indicates a greater likelihood of an anomaly in the video image.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, before combining the image features and environmental features of each video image and inputting them into a preset anomaly recognition model, the method further includes: training the initial anomaly recognition model according to multiple preset training image sets to obtain candidate recognition models corresponding to each training image set; verifying each candidate recognition model according to a preset verification image set to obtain the accuracy of each candidate recognition model; and selecting the candidate recognition model with the highest accuracy as the trained anomaly recognition model.

[0052] Specifically, before using the anomaly detection model for anomaly analysis, an initial anomaly detection model can be trained using multiple pre-set training image sets. This initial anomaly detection model is essentially an untrained AI model, resulting in only one initial model. The initial anomaly detection model can be trained separately using multiple training image sets, each containing multiple training images. The number of training images in each training image set can be equal or unequal. Each training image corresponds to a set of combined features and an anomaly label. The combined features of the training images in the training image set are sequentially input into the initial anomaly detection model, and the output value of the output node is obtained. Gradient descent is then performed using the anomaly label of the training image combined with the output value of the output node. This gradient descent operation is used to fine-tune the parameter values ​​in the initial anomaly detection model; this parameter fine-tuning process is equivalent to training the initial anomaly detection model. The initial anomaly detection model can be trained once using a single training image, and iteratively trained using multiple training images from the training image set. After each training image in the training image set has been used to train the initial anomaly detection model, a candidate detection model corresponding to that training image set can be obtained. Each training image set can then yield a corresponding candidate recognition model.

[0053] Each candidate recognition model is validated using a set of validation images, which contains multiple validation images. Each validation image corresponds to a set of combined features and an anomaly label. Specifically, the combined features of the validation images in the set are sequentially input into the candidate recognition models. The models then obtain the output results for each validation image and determine whether these output results match the anomaly label. The ratio of the number of output results matching the anomaly label to the total number of validation images is used as the accuracy of each candidate recognition model. Each candidate image can then have a corresponding accuracy rate. The candidate recognition model with the highest accuracy is selected as the trained anomaly recognition model for use.

[0054] S150. Determine whether there are any abnormalities in the monitoring and recognition results of each video image.

[0055] Determine whether there are any anomalies in the monitoring and recognition results of each video image. Furthermore, the anomaly probability value in the monitoring and recognition results of the video images can be determined to distinguish whether there are any anomalies in the monitoring and recognition results.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, step S150 specifically includes the step of: determining whether the abnormal probability value in the monitoring and identification result is not less than a pre-stored abnormal probability threshold, thereby determining whether the monitoring and identification result is abnormal.

[0057] Specifically, it can be determined whether the abnormal probability value in the monitoring and identification result is not less than the pre-stored abnormal probability threshold. For example, the abnormal probability threshold can be set to 60%. If the abnormal probability value in the monitoring and identification result is not less than the abnormal probability threshold, it is determined that the monitoring and identification result is abnormal. If the abnormal probability value in the monitoring and identification result is less than the abnormal probability threshold, it is determined that the monitoring and identification result is not abnormal.

[0058] S160. If the monitoring and recognition results of each video image are normal, return to the step of extracting the corresponding video image from the video stream input by the video monitor according to the preset parking monitoring cycle.

[0059] If the monitoring and identification results of all the video images are normal, return to the step of extracting the corresponding video image from the video stream input by the video monitor according to the preset parking monitoring cycle. If the monitoring and identification results of all video images are normal, then extract video images from the video stream again according to the parking monitoring cycle for anomaly identification, that is, return to step S110.

[0060] S170. If any of the video images shows an abnormality in the monitoring and recognition result, a corresponding alarm message shall be issued.

[0061] If any video image monitoring result shows an anomaly, a corresponding alarm message will be generated based on the installation location of the video monitor corresponding to the video image. The alarm message includes the installation location of the video image and the time the message was generated. Users can view the alarm message to obtain the specific location of the anomaly (i.e., the installation location of the video image) and the time when the anomaly was discovered (i.e., the time the message was generated).

[0062] In a specific embodiment, after step S170, the method further includes the steps of: generating an exception handling work order corresponding to the monitoring identification result; and storing the exception handling work order in a pre-configured monitoring work order table.

[0063] Furthermore, after issuing an alarm notification, a corresponding anomaly handling work order can be generated based on the monitoring identification results. This work order records the occurrence, processing status, and subsequent handling operations of the anomaly. The generated work order can be dispatched to property management personnel, who can then handle the anomaly based on it. To further consolidate and record these work orders, improving the efficiency of viewing and processing them, the generated work orders can be stored in a pre-configured monitoring work order table. Users can then quickly view the processing progress and handler information for each work order by checking the monitoring work order table, thus improving the efficiency of viewing, processing, and statistically analyzing anomaly handling work orders.

[0064] The parking lot monitoring method based on image recognition provided in this embodiment of the invention extracts video images from the video stream according to the parking monitoring cycle and extracts image features to obtain environmental features corresponding to the video images. The environmental features and image features are then merged and input into an anomaly recognition model to obtain the monitoring and recognition result of the video images. The method determines whether the monitoring and recognition result is abnormal. If there is no abnormality, the step of extracting video images continues; if there is an abnormality, an alarm message is issued. This parking lot monitoring method can utilize the video stream of existing video monitors to extract video images for monitoring and analysis. Therefore, it is not limited by the display size of the video screen and can analyze clearer video images extracted from the original video stream. This significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of anomaly monitoring of vehicles and charging facilities in parking lots, and can accurately monitor abnormal problems occurring in parking lots using the video stream of video monitors.

[0065] This invention also provides an image recognition-based parking lot monitoring device, which can be configured in a management server and is used to execute any of the aforementioned image recognition-based parking lot monitoring methods.

[0068] The image feature extraction unit 120 is used to extract corresponding image features from each of the video images according to a preset image feature extraction model.

[0070] The monitoring and identification result acquisition unit 140 is used to combine the image features and environmental features of each video image and input them into a preset anomaly identification model to perform anomaly identification on each video image and obtain the corresponding monitoring and identification result.

[0071] The anomaly detection unit 150 is used to determine whether there are any anomalies in the monitoring and recognition results of each video image.

[0072] The execution unit 160 is used to return to the step of extracting the corresponding video image from the video stream input by the video monitor according to the preset parking monitoring cycle if the monitoring and recognition results of each video image are normal.

[0073] The alarm notification unit 170 is used to issue a corresponding alarm notification message if the monitoring and identification result of any of the video images is abnormal.

[0074] The parking lot monitoring device based on image recognition provided in this embodiment of the invention applies the above-mentioned parking lot monitoring method based on image recognition. The method includes: extracting video images from the video stream according to the parking monitoring cycle and extracting image features; obtaining environmental features corresponding to the video images; merging the environmental features and image features and inputting them into an anomaly recognition model to obtain the monitoring and recognition result of the video images; determining whether the monitoring and recognition result is abnormal; if there is no abnormality, continuing to execute the step of extracting video images; if there is an abnormality, issuing an alarm prompt message. The above-mentioned parking lot monitoring method can utilize the video stream of existing video monitors to extract video images for monitoring and analysis, thus not being limited by the display size of the video screen, and can analyze clearer video images extracted from the original video stream, greatly improving the efficiency and reliability of anomaly monitoring of vehicles and charging facilities in parking lots, and can accurately monitor abnormal problems occurring in parking lots using the video stream of video monitors.
