INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240161257 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that includes image processing units, estimation units, and distribution units to optimize image processing tasks.

  • The first image processing unit generates first information.
  • The second image processing unit generates second information.
  • The first estimation unit determines if the second image processing can be completed in the current processing period based on the time needed for the first image processing and the first information.
  • The distribution unit distributes the first information to be used in remaining second image processing to the second image processing unit and a third image processing unit, if the second image processing cannot be completed in the current processing period.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various fields such as image processing, computer vision, and real-time data processing.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of optimizing image processing tasks by distributing information effectively between different processing units.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved efficiency in image processing, faster processing times, and better utilization of resources.

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application of this technology could be in industries that require real-time image processing, such as surveillance, medical imaging, and autonomous vehicles.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in the field of image processing and task optimization may include similar systems that distribute processing tasks between multiple units for improved efficiency.

Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing apparatus including: a first image processing unit that generates first information; a second image processing unit that generates second information; a first estimation unit that estimates whether or not the second image processing is able to be completed in a current processing period based on time needed for the first image processing and the first information; and a distribution unit that distributes, if it is estimated that the second image processing is not able to be completed in the current processing period, the first information to be used in remaining second image processing to the second image processing unit and a third image processing unit that is provided separately from the second image processing unit and executes the second image processing, in order to execute the remaining second image processing in a preset number of processing periods after the current processing period.
