Solution Overview

Problem

In image recognition, particularly in face recognition, identifying appropriate feature data is crucial for pre-training and fine-tuning image recognition models. However, when appropriate feature data cannot be identified, the model fails to yield a fine result, especially when face information is incomplete.

Innovation Solution

A method is developed to generate an image recognition model by obtaining a source image, cutting out a first image from a specific region, and pre-training a preliminary image recognition model using the cut source image and associated label data. The model is then fine-tuned to generate the image recognition model.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If standard transfer learning process is used with pre-training and fine-tuning, then model training can be performed, but the model fails to yield fine results when appropriate feature data cannot be identified or face information is incomplete

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodel recognition accuracyVSAvoidadaptability to incomplete face information
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the source image into multiple regions including a first region containing the first image and other regions. By cutting out the first image from the first region to generate a cut source image, the method focuses on specific facial features while excluding interfering elements, thereby improving recognition accuracy for incomplete face information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the first image from the source image by cutting out the first region. This extraction process isolates the essential facial features needed for training, removing background and other non-essential elements that could interfere with model learning, thus enhancing the model's ability to handle incomplete face data

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Quantity of substance

If complete source images are used for pre-training, then sufficient data is available for training, but the model cannot effectively handle noisy or incomplete input images

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetraining data quantityVSAvoidfeature data quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by generating different processed images from different regions of the source image. The first processed image is generated from the first region containing the first image, while second processed images are generated from other regions. This allows the model to learn from diverse local features while maintaining high quality feature data for training

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent converts potentially harmful incomplete or noisy face information into beneficial training data by using image processing techniques. By cutting out specific regions and generating processed images, the method transforms incomplete information into focused feature data that enhances model robustness against noise and incompleteness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)
