Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A method of object recognition, comprising the steps of:
capturing a plurality of reference images with a camera associated with an edge node on a communication network;
receiving the reference images with a centralized server on the communication network;
analyzing the reference images with a parent neural network of the centralized server to determine a subset of objects identified by the parent neural network in the reference images;
selecting one or more filters in the parent neural network that are responsive to the subset of objects, the one or more filters being configured to activate in response to patterns in the reference images;
creating a pruned neural network from the one or more filters that result from the step of selecting;
deploying the pruned neural network to the edge node;
capturing real-time images with the camera of the edge node; and
identifying objects in the real-time images with the pruned neural network.
