OBJECT DETECTION APPARATUS, OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240161445 titled 'OBJECT DETECTION APPARATUS, OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM, OBJECT DETECTION METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The object detection apparatus described in the abstract performs compression encoding on images to extract feature quantities for object detection. The apparatus includes a generation unit and a detection unit.
- Generation unit:
- Performs compression encoding on a first image and a second image indicating a detection target object. - Extracts feature quantities for object detection. - Generates first encoding information for the compressed, encoded first image and second encoding information for the compressed, encoded second image.
- Detection unit:
- Detects the detection target object in the first image using the first and second feature quantities.

Original Abstract Submitted
an object detection apparatus includes: a generation unit that performs compression encoding on each of a first image obtained from an image generation apparatus and a second image indicating a detection target object so as to extract a feature quantity that allows object detection and so as to be decoded later, thereby generate respective one of first encoding information that is the compressed, encoded first image and that is usable as a first feature quantity that is the feature quantity of the first image, and second encoding information that is the compressed, encoded second image and that is usable as a second feature quantity that is the feature quantity of the second image; and a detection unit that detects the detection target object in the first image, by using the first and second feature quantities.
