  • Patent number: 11507776
    Abstract: An image recognition method, including: obtaining an image to be recognized by an image sensor; inputting the image to be recognized to a single convolutional neural network; obtaining a first feature map of a first detection task and a second feature map of a second detection task according to an output result of the single convolutional neural network, wherein the first feature map and the second feature map have a shared feature; using an end-layer network module to generate a first recognition result corresponding to the first detection task from the image to be recognized according to the first feature map, and to generate a second recognition result corresponding to the second detection task from the image to be recognized according to the second feature map; and outputting the first recognition result corresponding to the first detection task and the second recognition result corresponding to the second detection task.
