The patent filed by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp. describes a processing system involving an edge device and a server device. The edge device divides processing data into pieces and inputs them into different models for inference processing. Only the data that meets certain conditions is sent to the server device, which then performs inference processing using a more computationally intensive model. The system is designed for tasks like object detection, subject recognition in images, and integrating inference results for improved accuracy.
The claims associated with the patent detail the specific configurations and functionalities of the processing system. These include selecting data based on predetermined conditions, object and moving object detection, subject recognition in images, and encoding and decoding data for transmission between devices. The system is versatile, capable of handling various types of data such as single images or image sequences captured over time. Additionally, the patent covers a processing method and a computer-readable recording medium storing a processing program to execute the described processes. Overall, the patent outlines a sophisticated system for efficient and accurate inference processing using a combination of edge and server devices.
