Patent ID: 10509987

Abstract:
A method for learning parameters of an object detector based on a CNN adaptable to customer's requirements such as KPI by using a target object estimating network and a target object merging network is provided. The CNN can be redesigned when scales of objects change as a focal length or a resolution changes depending on the KPI. The method includes steps of: a learning device instructing convolutional layers to generate a k-th feature map by applying convolution operations to a k-th manipulated image which corresponds to the (k−1)-th target region on an image; and instructing the target object merging network to merge a first to an n-th object detection information, outputted from an FC layer, and backpropagating losses generated by referring to merged object detection information and its corresponding GT. The method can be useful for multi-camera, SVM (surround view monitor), and the like, as accuracy of 2D bounding boxes improves.
