IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS IMPROVED IN IMAGE RECOGNITION ACCURACY, METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18194415 Titled 'IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS IMPROVED IN IMAGE RECOGNITION ACCURACY, METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image capturing apparatus that consists of an image sensor section and a signal processor. The apparatus has a control arithmetic unit that can switch between a recognition mode and a learning mode. In the recognition mode, the image sensor section performs recognition processing using a first learning model. The signal processor also performs recognition processing using a second learning model. In the learning mode, the image sensor section updates the first learning model based on the recognition result from the second recognition unit and the image captured by the image capturing unit.


Original Abstract Submitted

An image capturing apparatus includes an image sensor section and a signal processor for processing an image input from the image sensor section via a signal line. A control arithmetic unit switches the image sensor section to a recognition mode or a learning mode. The image sensor section includes an image capturing section for generating an image, and a sensor recognition section for performing, in the recognition mode, recognition processing by inputting the image to a first learning model. The signal processor includes a recognition section for performing recognition processing by inputting the image to a second learning model. The image sensor section further includes a sensor learning section for updating, in the learning mode, the first learning model, based on a recognition result obtained by the second recognition unit and input from the signal processor, and an image generated by the image capturing unit.
