A Computer Software Module Arrangement, a Circuitry Arrangement, an Arrangement and a Method for Improved Object Detection Adapting the Detection through Shifting the Image - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18033226 titled 'A Computer Software Module Arrangement, a Circuitry Arrangement, an Arrangement and a Method for Improved Object Detection Adapting the Detection through Shifting the Image

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an object detection arrangement that uses a multi-scale convolutional neural network to detect objects in images. The arrangement includes a controller that receives image data and determines the distance of the object to be detected within the image. Based on this distance, the controller classifies whether there is a risk of incorrectly detecting the object. If there is a risk, the controller compensates for it by shifting the image.

  • The object detection arrangement uses a multi-scale convolutional neural network for detecting objects in images.
  • The controller receives image data and determines the distance of the object to be detected within the image.
  • Based on the distance, the controller classifies whether there is a risk of incorrectly detecting the object.
  • If there is a risk, the controller compensates for it by shifting the image.

Potential Applications

  • Object detection in autonomous vehicles to improve accuracy and reliability.
  • Surveillance systems for detecting and tracking objects in real-time.
  • Robotics applications for object recognition and manipulation.

Problems Solved

  • Reduces the risk of incorrectly detecting objects based on their distance in the image.
  • Improves the accuracy of object detection in various applications.
  • Provides a mechanism for compensating and adjusting the object detection process.

Benefits

  • Enhanced object detection accuracy by considering the distance of the object in the image.
  • Improved reliability and performance of object detection systems.
  • Increased efficiency in object recognition and tracking tasks.


Original Abstract Submitted

An object detection arrangement () comprising a controller () configured to detect objects utilizing a multi-scale convolutional neural network, wherein the controller () is further configured to: receive () image data representing an image () comprising an object to be detected () being at a distance (d) into the image (); classify () whether the object to be detected () is at risk of being incorrectly detected based on the distance (d); and if so compensate () the object detection by shifting () the image ().
