Patent number: 11406121Abstract: A rice cooker assembly uses machine learning models to identify and classify content in grain mixtures thereby to provide better automation of the cooking process. As one example, a rice cooker has a chamber storing grains. A camera is positioned to view an interior of the chamber. The camera captures images of the contents of the chamber. From the images, the machine learning model determines whether the contents of the chamber includes one type or multiple types of grain or whether the contents of the chamber includes any inedible objects. The machine learning model further classifies the one or more types of grains and inedible objects if any. The cooking process may be controlled accordingly. The machine learning model may be resident in the rice cooker or it may be accessed via a network.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2018Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: MIDEA GROUP CO., LTD.Inventors: Dongyan Wang, Linnan Zhu, Xiaochun Li, Junyang Zhou

Patent number: 10817716Abstract: Embodiments provide a process to identify one or more areas containing a hand or hands of one or more subjects in an image. The detection process can start with coarsely locating one or more segments in the image that contain portions of the hand(s) of the subject(s) in the image using a coarse CNN. The detection process can then combine these segments to obtain the one or more areas capturing the hand(s) of the subject(s) in the image. The combined area(s) can then be fed to a grid-based deep neural network finely detect area(s) in the image that contain only the hand(s) of the subject(s) captured.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2018Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignees: MIDEA GROUP CO., LTD., SEETATECH (BEIJING) TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Zixuan Yang, Dahai Yu, Zhuang Liu, Junyang Zhou, Xiujuan Chai, Shiguang Shan, Xilin Chen
