Abstract: A data processing method and apparatus are disclosed. In various embodiments, R groups of proposal region sequences are obtained. Each group of proposal region sequence includes a plurality of proposal regions. In those embodiments, a VRPAC instruction is invoked to calculate an area of each proposal region in each group of proposal region sequence. For a jth group of proposal region sequence in the R groups of proposal region sequences, a VIOU instruction and a VAADD instruction are invoked to determine j suppression matrices of the jth group of proposal region sequence and determine a suppression vector of the jth group of proposal region sequence based on the j suppression matrices. In those embodiments, an unsuppressed proposal region is determined based on a suppression vector of each group of proposal region sequence.

Abstract: A data processing method and apparatus are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining R groups of proposal region sequences, where each group of proposal region sequence includes a plurality of proposal regions; invoking a VRPAC instruction to calculate an area of each proposal region in each group of proposal region sequence; for a jth group of proposal region sequence in the R groups of proposal region sequences, invoking a VIOU instruction and a VAADD instruction to determine j suppression matrices of the jth group of proposal region sequence and determine a suppression vector of the jth group of proposal region sequence based on the j suppression matrices; and determining an unsuppressed proposal region based on a suppression vector of each group of proposal region sequence. The method reduces invoked instructions, reduces instruction execution steps, and shortens a time used in NMS calculation.
