  • Inter-object relation recognition apparatus, learned model, recognition method and non-transitory computer readable medium
    Patent number: 10762329
    Abstract: An Inter-object relation recognition apparatus includes: a first learning device receiving an image, and outputting a first feature amount of the image; a second learning device receiving the first feature amount, outputting a second feature amount, and having a plurality of storage units holding internal states for predetermined steps; a triplet unit having a plurality of triplet-units, the triplet-units receiving the second feature amount, recognizing first to third elements, and constituted of first to third recognition units outputting probability information. The triplet unit selects at least one combination of the first to third elements, based on the probability information of the first to third elements output from the first to third recognition units of each of the triplet units, from the combinations of the first to third elements output from each of the triplet units, and recognizes and outputs the combination as a relation between objects.
