Patent ID: 11238311

Abstract:
A method for image classification includes acquiring a to-be-classified image and inputting the to-be-classified image to a trained image classification model, the trained image classification model includes a localization segmentation sub-network, an alignment sub-network, and a classification sub-network, the alignment sub-network is formulized as a valve linkage function, the image classification model is obtained, and in a forward-propagation phase, an output of the valve linkage function is an aligned image; in a backward-propagation phase, the output of the valve linkage function is a function; subjecting the to-be-classified image through the localization segmentation sub-network for locating and segmenting a target object of the to-be-classified image to obtain a segmented image; subjecting the segmented image through the alignment sub-network, the alignment sub-network aligning the target object to obtain an aligned image; and subjecting the aligned image through the classification sub-network for fine-grain classification to obtain a class corresponding to the to-be-classified image.
