Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If no effective method is used for identifying vehicle behavior, then the system remains simple, but the self-driving device cannot accurately respond to road conditions, affecting safety and reliability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the image processing task into distinct components: detecting brake lamp states, steering lamp states, door states, and wheel pointing direction states. Each component is processed independently through the deep learning model, allowing the system to handle complex vehicle behavior analysis through modular detection of individual state parameters
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a deep learning model as an intermediary between the input images and the vehicle behavior determination. This intermediary processes the raw image data and extracts meaningful state parameters (brake lamp, steering lamp, door, wheel states) that bridge the gap between visual input and behavioral interpretation
2Measurement precision
If deep learning model is used to analyze images and determine vehicle behavior, then measurement precision of vehicle state parameters is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the image analysis task from detecting complex vehicle behaviors directly to detecting specific state parameters (brake lamp on/off, steering lamp direction, door open/closed, wheel pointing direction). This parameter transformation simplifies the detection problem while maintaining high precision, as each parameter represents a discrete, easily classifiable state

AI summary
The present invention provides an automobile image processing method and apparatus, and a readable storage medium. A to-be-processed image collected by a collecting point of automobile images is obtained, where the collecting point is provided on a self-driving device; the to-be-processed image is processed using a deep learning model, and a state parameter of an automobile in the to-be-processed image is outputted; and an automobile behavior in the to-be-processed image is determined according to the state parameter. Thus the to-be-processed image collected by the collecting point can be processed using the deep learning model to obtain the state parameter for determining the automobile behavior, and thus the automobile behavior can be obtained, thereby providing a foundation and a basis for the self-driving device to adjust the driving strategy according to the road condition.
