MACHINE LEARNING DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20230199280 titled 'MACHINE LEARNING DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system that uses machine learning to generate visible light images from far-infrared images. It also includes a trained identification model to determine if the far-infrared image was captured in a specific time zone.
- The system acquires a far-infrared image and a visible light image at different predetermined time zones.
- A generative adversarial network is used to train a visible light image generation model with the acquired images.
- The trained generation model can then generate visible light images from far-infrared images captured in a different time zone.
- The system also generates a trained identification model to identify if a far-infrared image was captured in the specific time zone.
Potential Applications
- Surveillance systems: Generating visible light images from far-infrared images can enhance surveillance capabilities in low-light conditions.
- Medical imaging: Converting far-infrared images to visible light images can aid in medical diagnosis and treatment.
- Environmental monitoring: The technology can be used to analyze far-infrared images captured at different times to study changes in temperature and other environmental factors.
Problems Solved
- Limited visibility in low-light conditions: The technology allows for the generation of visible light images from far-infrared images, improving visibility in dark environments.
- Time zone identification: The trained identification model can determine if a far-infrared image was captured in a specific time zone, providing valuable information for various applications.
Benefits
- Enhanced image visibility: The system enables the generation of visible light images from far-infrared images, improving the clarity and detail of captured images.
- Time zone identification: The trained identification model can accurately determine the time zone of a captured far-infrared image, aiding in data analysis and interpretation.
Original Abstract Submitted
a far-infrared image training data acquisition unit acquires a far-infrared image in a first predetermined time zone. a visible light image training data acquisition unit acquires a visible light image in a second predetermined time zone. a visible light image generation model training unit machine-learns the far-infrared image in the first predetermined time zone and the visible light image in the second predetermined time zone as training data by a generative adversarial network, and generates a trained generation model, which generates the visible light image in the second predetermined time zone from the far-infrared image in the first predetermined time zone. through machine learning by a generative adversarial network, the visible light image generation model training unit further generates a trained identification model, which identifies whether or not the far-infrared image is a far-infrared image captured in the first predetermined time zone.
