Patent number: 11899752Abstract: An object counting system crops images into multiple split images. When a distance between at least one side of a bounding box being associated with a position of a first object in the first split image and at least one side of a bounding box being associated with a position of a second object in the second split image adjacent to the first split image is less than a tolerance value, the processor combines the adjacent first split image and the second split second split image into a merged image, so that the first object and the second object are merged into a merged object. A processor calculates a prediction number of objects based on the objects contained in these split images and the merged objects in the merged image. The object counting system automatically counts the number of bug eggs, to save manpower and provide an accurate count.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2021Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: WISTRON CORP.Inventors: Zhao-Yuan Lin, Zhe-Yu Lin

Publication number: 20230196729Abstract: An image recognition method includes the following steps. An original image with a first resolution is received, and the first resolution of the original image is reduced to generate a low-resolution image with a second resolution. The first resolution is higher than the second resolution. The position of a target object in the low-resolution image is identified using an object detection model to obtain the target object coordinates in the low-resolution image. A target object image is segmented from the original image according to the target object coordinates in the low-resolution image, and the target object image is input into the image classification model. The target object type that corresponds to the target object image is determined using the image classification model.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2022Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Zhe-Yu LIN, Tay-Wey LEE, Zhao-Yuan LIN, Tsun-Hsien KUO, Chen Wei YANG
