  • Patent number: 11620756
    Abstract: The present application is applicable to the technical field of image processing, and provides a target object tracking method and an apparatus, and a terminal device. The target object tracking method includes: obtaining an image sequence including a target object, wherein the image sequence includes a plurality of image; analyzing the plurality of image, and determining a motion vector and a motion vector residual of the target object in a current image; and inputting the motion vector, the motion vector residual, and a known target region of the target object in a previous image into a first target detection network, and determining a predicted target region of the target object in the current image. The present application can reduce the calculation amount and thus improve the operation speed of target object tracking.

  • Patent number: 10452954
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for object detection and representation in images. In one aspect, a method includes detecting occurrences of objects of a particular type in images captured within a first duration of time, and iteratively training an image embedding function to produce as output representations of features of the input images depicting occurrences of objects of the particular type, where similar representations of features are generated for images that depict the same instance of an object of a particular type captured within a specified duration of time, and dissimilar representations of features are generated for images that depict different instances of objects of the particular type.

  • Patent number: 9268793
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for adjusting facial image search results. In one aspect, a method includes detecting, in images that are responsive to a query, faces in the images and building facial templates. The images are then clustered according to similarity measures of the facial templates. The cluster with the highest quantity is selected, and each image in the set of returned images is compared to each image in the selected cluster. The similarity of each face with the faces in the largest cluster, based on the facial templates, is determined as an inlier score for the image in which the face is depicted. The system then increases the rank of images with high inlier scores and decreases the rank of images with low inlier scores.
