DEVICE FOR PROCESSING IMAGE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18081195 titled 'DEVICE FOR PROCESSING IMAGE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a processing device and method for recognizing target objects in images and adjusting compression ratios accordingly. Here are the key points:
- The processing device compresses a raw image at a preset compression ratio, encodes it, and then decodes the encoded image to obtain a reconstructed image.
- It identifies a target object and a first region of interest (ROI) containing the target object in the raw image.
- A first feature vector is extracted from the target object in the raw image.
- The processing device also identifies the target object and a second ROI in the reconstructed image.
- A second feature vector is extracted from the target object in the reconstructed image.
- By comparing the degree of overlap between the first and second ROIs and the degree of similarity between the first and second feature vectors, the processing device determines if the target object is recognized in the reconstructed image.
- Based on this determination, the preset compression ratio is adjusted accordingly.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Image and video compression algorithms can benefit from this innovation by dynamically adjusting compression ratios based on the recognition of important objects in the images.
- Surveillance systems can use this technology to prioritize the recognition and preservation of important objects or areas of interest in compressed video feeds.
- Medical imaging devices can optimize image compression to ensure accurate recognition of critical anatomical structures.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Traditional compression algorithms may sacrifice important details or objects in images to achieve higher compression ratios.
- By recognizing and preserving target objects, this technology ensures that important information is not lost during the compression process.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved image and video quality by preserving important objects during compression.
- Efficient use of storage space by dynamically adjusting compression ratios based on the presence of target objects.
- Enhanced recognition and analysis of specific objects or regions of interest in compressed images.
Original Abstract Submitted
A processing device and an operating method of the processing device are provided. An embodiment of the present disclosure provides the processing device that obtains a reconstructed image of the raw image by compressing a raw image at a preset compression ratio, encoding the compressed raw image, and decoding the encoded image, recognizes, in the raw image, a target object and a first region of interest (ROI) including the target object and extracts a first feature vector from the target object recognized in the raw image, recognizes, in the reconstructed image, the target object and a second ROI including the target object and extracts a second feature vector from the target object recognized in the reconstructed image, determines whether the target object is recognized in the reconstructed image, based on a degree of overlap between the first and second ROIs and a degree of similarity between the first and second feature vectors, and adjusts the preset compression ratio according to whether the target object is recognized.
