  • Patent number: 12705508
    Abstract: A method for adding prediction results as training data using an AI prediction model, comprises the steps of: arranging an image having a first opposing attribute, the image being from an actual captured image, on a two-dimensional plane so as to be face-to-face with respect to a specific point on the two-dimensional plane; arranging an image having a second opposing attribute, on the two-dimensional plane so as to be orthogonal, with respect to the specific point, to the image having the first opposing attribute; receiving image data of the first and second attributes respectively arranged on the two-dimensional plane; by means of first and second AI prediction models, predicting respective results for the image data of the first and second attributes; converting the respective prediction results into X, Y coordinates, and cumulating and storing same; and selecting data to be included in training by analyzing the predicted results, and adding the selected data as training data.

  • Patent number: 12260614
    Abstract: A neural network model training method and an apparatus for complex characteristic classification and common localization are proposed. In the method, a neural network model includes: a convolution layer for performing a convolution operation on an input image by using a convolution filter; a pooling layer for performing pooling on an output of the convolution layer; and class-specific fully connected layers respectively corresponding to classes into which complex characteristics are classified and outputting values obtained by multiplying an output of the pooling layer by class-specific weights (Wfc(Tt). The method includes: (a) inputting the input image to the convolution layer; (b) calculating class-specific observation maps for respective classes on the basis of the output of the convolution layer; (c) calculating an observation loss (Lobs) common to the classes on the basis of the class-specific observation maps; and (d) back-propagating a loss based on the observation loss to the neural network model.
