Abstract: Procédé de détection de discontinuités dans un milieu et système pour mettre en œuvre ce procédé Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à définir une séquence d'émission dans laquelle on choisit une pluralité de transducteurs émetteurs parmi les transducteurs d'une sonde, de manière uniforme et aléatoire sur la surface active de la sonde, et on définit pour chaque transducteur émetteur un décalage temporel de manière uniforme et aléatoire sur une durée d'émission prédéterminée. Ensuite, on fait émettre la séquence d'émission dans le milieu par la pluralité de transducteurs émetteurs, on reçoit et enregistre les signaux en réception et on les traite avec une loi de focalisation adaptée aux transducteurs émetteurs et aux décalages temporels utilisés, pour en déduire un niveau de détection.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method of continuously, adaptive detection of environment features in autonomous and assisted driving of an ego-vehicle connected to a server and to a plurality of other vehicles. The ego-vehicle and the other vehicles are provided with respective machine learning models that are similar between one another. The method comprises a data collection step by the ego-vehicle in which, based on the machine learning model of the ego-vehicle, the acquired sensors data - among which images, generate a specific scenario interpretation. When feedback is received that the scenario interpretation is wrong, the corresponding images of the ego-vehicle is encoded, hashed and sent to a server with the request to broadcast them to the plurality of other vehicles requesting the other vehicles to communicate the server specific similar scenario interpretations Then, the other vehicles identify the specific combination of environment features corresponding to the wrong scenario interpretation, acquire their owns sensors data and process same, including images that are extracted, encoded and hashed. The other vehicles compare the similarity between the image hashes received from the ego-vehicle and from each of the other vehicles Vi by means of a similarity score surpassing a given threshold, meaning that a high similarity score corresponds to similar data, in terms of structure and content. For the image hashes of the other vehicles where the given threshold is surpassed, the other vehicles identify a specific similar scenario interpretation and send it to the server. The server aggregates the sensors data of the other vehicles corresponding to the image hashes of the other vehicles and of the ego vehicle, incrementally retrains the machine learning model of the ego-vehicle and sends the incrementally - retrained model to the ego-vehicle together. The invention further refers to a trained machine learning model, to a system to carry out the method and to a plurality of non-transitory computer-readable mediums.
