Patent number: 11900258Abstract: A learning device, an image generating device, a learning method, an image generating method, and a program are provided which can improve accuracy of estimation of an environment outside an angle of view of an image input to an image generating section. A second learning data obtaining section (64) obtains an input image. A second learning section (66) obtains result data indicating a result of execution of semantic segmentation on the input image. An input data generating section (38) generates input data obtained by coupling the input image and the result data to each other. By using the input data as input, the second learning section (66) performs learning of a wide view angle image generating section (28) that generates, in response to input of data obtained by coupling an image to a result of execution of semantic segmentation on the image, an image having a wider angle of view than the image.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2018Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: SONY INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT INC.Inventor: Daichi Ono

Patent number: 11681910Abstract: Provided are a training apparatus, a recognition apparatus, a training method, a recognition method, and a program that can accurately recognize what an object represented in an image associated with depth information is. An object data acquiring section acquires three-dimensional data representing an object. A training data generating section generates a plurality of training data each representing a mutually different part of the object on the basis of the three-dimensional data. A training section trains a machine learning model using the generated training data as the training data for the object.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2017Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Tsutomu Horikawa, Daichi Ono
