Solution Overview

Problem

Training deep networks for vehicle image recognition is hindered by poor accuracy due to dynamic object movements in training images, leading to inaccurate depth information recognition.

Innovation Solution

An image depth recognition model is trained using instance segmentation to distinguish static and dynamic objects, selecting target dynamic objects based on pixel points and positions, and generating a target image to filter out moving objects, thereby improving training accuracy by minimizing the impact of dynamic objects on loss values.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If training images include dynamic objects, then the training data is more representative of real-world scenarios, but the training accuracy of the deep network deteriorates due to movements of dynamic objects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverepresentativeness of training dataVSAvoidtraining accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies instance segmentation to divide the training image into multiple instance masks, each corresponding to a specific object. By segmenting dynamic objects from static background, the system can selectively process different regions with appropriate strategies, thereby maintaining representativeness while improving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts and removes dynamic objects from the training images by identifying them through instance segmentation and comparing across multiple images. By taking out these moving objects, the training data becomes more suitable for depth recognition while still retaining static scene information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Measurement precision

If dynamic objects are removed from training images, then the training accuracy improves, but the training data becomes less representative of real-world scenarios

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetraining accuracyVSAvoidrepresentativeness of training data
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a dynamic processing approach where the system adaptively identifies and handles dynamic objects based on their detection in the image sequence. Rather than statically removing all dynamic content, the system dynamically adjusts the training process by selectively masking or weighting regions containing moving objects, thus preserving representativeness while improving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Measurement precision

If instance segmentation is performed on all dynamic objects, then the accuracy of depth recognition improves, but the computational complexity and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedepth recognition accuracyVSAvoidcomputational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies instance segmentation selectively to regions containing dynamic objects rather than processing the entire image uniformly. By focusing computational resources on local regions with moving objects, the system achieves improved depth recognition accuracy while reducing overall computational complexity compared to full-image processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs instance segmentation on a subset of the image (only regions with dynamic objects) rather than the complete image. This partial action approach achieves the necessary accuracy improvement while avoiding the excessive computational burden of processing every pixel in the entire training image.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
