Abstract
An image processing device (100) is provided with an image augmentation unit (40) that creates, from an infrared detection signal obtained by imaging an object and on the basis of information about the object, expansion images (71-78) for use as training data for machine learning model creation, or for use as input images in object recognition processing by using a machine learning model.
Claims14
An image processing device comprising:
- an image augmentation unit that creates, from a detection signal of infrared rays used to image a target, an augmented image based on information on the target, wherein the augmented image is usable as training data for creating a machine learning model or is usable as an input image in processing for recognizing the target by the machine learning model.
An edge device comprising:
- an inference model that has undergone machine learning by an image processing device including:
- an image augmentation unit that generates, from a detection signal of infrared rays used to image a target
- an augmented image based on information on the target, wherein the augmented image is used as training data for generating a machine learning model or is used as an input image in a process of recognizing the target by the machine learning model;
- and
- a learning process unit that performs machine learning using the training data;
- and
- an inference process unit that infers the target by applying the augmented image generated by the image augmentation unit to the inference model.
An image generation method implemented by a computer, the method comprising causing a CPU of the computer to perform:
- generating, from a detection signal of infrared rays used to image a target, an augmented image based on information on the target, wherein the augmented image is usable as training data for generating a machine learning model or is usable as an input image in processing for recognizing the target by the machine learning model.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program, the program, when executed by a CPU of a computer, causing the CPU to perform steps comprising:
- creating, from a detection signal of infrared rays that have imaged a target, an augmented image based on information on the target, wherein the augmented image is usable as training data for creation of a machine learning model or is usable as an input image in recognition processing of the target by the machine learning model.
