  • Patent number: 12499351
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a grabbing detection method based on an RP-ResNet. The method comprises: inputting an image of a target; pre-processing data; performing data processing by an RP-ResNet model; and finally, generating a grabbing block diagram of a target to be grabbed. On the basis of a model ResNet 50, a region proposal network is used in the 30th layer of a network, fuzzy positioning is performed on the positions of grabbing points, feature information of high and low layers is fully fused to strengthen the utilization of information of low layers, and the 40th layer of the network is added to an SENet structure, thereby further increasing the detection accuracy of a grabbing points. By a grabbing detection framework based on ResNet-50, a residual network, a region proposal idea and SENet are combined, thereby ensuring rapid and accurate target detection.

  • Publication number: 20240331403
    Abstract: An RGB-T (Thermal) multispectral pedestrian detection method based on a target aware fusion strategy, which aims to accurately determine the position of pedestrians from a pair of RGB and thermal infrared images. Given a pair of RGB and thermal infrared image to be detected, this method firstly extracts multispectral features from the RGB and thermal infrared images; then the extracted multispectral features are fused by using a target aware fusion strategy; finally, the fused features are sent to a detection head for pedestrian detection, and the pedestrian position box and confidence are output. The method can effectively fuse the deep features of multispectral images, enhance the feature expression of pedestrian areas and suppress irrelevant background noise features during the fusion process, and can realize accurate pedestrian detection.
