  • Patent number: 11037297
    Abstract: Disclosed is an image analysis method and apparatus, upon a program crash on a computing node, the central node may acquire the image analysis task that results in the crash, split the image analysis task into multiple image analysis sub-tasks, transmit sequentially the image analysis sub-tasks to the computing node until a program crash occurs thereon. The central node then acquires an error image analysis sub-task that results in the crash on the computing node, and discard the error image analysis sub-task. The image analysis method can discard only the crash resulting image from an image analysis task, while other images in the image analysis task are retained. As such, fewer images are lost, so that the duration of a frame loss during video playback can be reduced and the reliability of image analysis can be improved. The approach is applicable for image analysis.
