Abstract: An object detection device includes a memory that stores data, and processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to set an object point indicating a position of an object in image data, detect a candidate region that is a candidate for an object region where the object in the image data exists, select the candidate region having the object point as an object region, and output the selected candidate region as the object region where the object exists.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an annotated text data expanding method capable of obtaining a large amount of annotated text data, which is not inconsistent with an annotation label and is not unnatural as a text, by mechanically expanding a small amount of annotated text data through a natural language processing. The annotated text data expanding method includes inputting, by an input device, the annotated text data including a first text appended with a first annotation label to a prediction complementary model. New annotated text data is created by one or more processors by the prediction complementary model, with reference to the first annotation label and context of the first text.

Abstract: A data augmentation apparatus includes a memory and processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to input a first data set including first image data and first text data related to the first image data, perform first image processing on the first image data to obtain second image data, edit the first text data based on contents of the first image processing to obtain the edited first text data as second text data, and output an augmented data set including the second image data and the second text data.
