  • Patent number: 11790198
    Abstract: A method for processing an encoded pattern, a storage medium, and an electronic device are disclosed in this application. An electronic device acquires a first encoded pattern to be recognized, the first encoded pattern being a pattern including predefined information encoded therein. The electronic device increases resolution of the first encoded pattern through a target model to obtain a target encoded pattern having a target resolution and corrects an edge of a sub-pattern in the target encoded pattern to obtain a second encoded pattern. Finally, the electronic device decodes the second encoded pattern using a code recognition module to obtain the predefined information. This application resolves the technical problem that an encoded pattern cannot be accurately recognized.

    Abstract: A method for processing an encoded pattern, a storage medium, and an electronic device are disclosed in this application. An electronic device acquires a first encoded pattern to be recognized, the first encoded pattern being a pattern obtained after predefined information is encoded therein. The electronic device increases resolution of the first encoded pattern through a target model to obtain a second encoded pattern, the target model being obtained through training by using a predetermined third encoded pattern as an input and a predetermined fourth encoded pattern as an output, the third encoded pattern being obtained by decreasing resolution of the fourth encoded pattern, the third and the first encoded patterns being encoded in the same manner. Finally, the electronic device decodes the second encoded pattern using a code recognition module to obtain the predefined information. This application resolves the technical problem that an encoded pattern cannot be accurately recognized.

  • Patent number: 11300709
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining a surface runoff yield in a vegetation-covered area. The present invention improves and integrates a water conservation model with a Zhang's model based on remote sensing data. The present invention constructs a new method for calculating a surface runoff yield in a vegetation-covered area on a spatial pixel scale based on a water balance equation of the vegetation-covered area. This method utilizes real-time dynamic multi-temporal remote sensing data to calculate a vegetation canopy interception water storage, a vegetation litterfall interception water storage, a soil water storage change, a vegetation water conservation, a vegetation evapotranspiration and a vegetation runoff yield. The method realizes the long-term dynamic estimation of the surface runoff yield in regional and global vegetation-covered areas on a spatial pixel scale.
