CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

[ 0001] The present application claims priority to Singapore Patent Application No. 10202114028X, filed to the Singapore Patent Office on 17 December 2021 and entitled "IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, APPARATUS AND DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM", which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[ 0002] Embodiments of the disclosure relate to the technical field of image processing, and relate, but are not limited, to an image processing method, apparatus and device, and a storage medium.

BACKGROUND

[ 0003] In an intelligent analysis system for a game place, the data required by an upper layer is generally given as total information frame by frame by a bottom layer. An upper-layer service performs related logic processing, filtering and further service logic judgment based on the total information. This brings more complexity to the service layer out of the service itself, rendering that the service layer cannot just focus on the service itself.

[ 0005] The embodiments of the disclosure provide an image processing method, which may include: acquiring, from multiple images of a preset scene, total information of picture content in each of the multiple images; determining, among the multiple images based on the total information of the picture content in the multiple images, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets a preset condition; determining, in the at least two first images, incremental information of an object that changes; and feeding the incremental information to an upper-layer service to enable the upper-layer service to conduct a service related to the object based on the incremental information.

[ 0006] The embodiments of the application provide an image processing apparatus, which may include a first acquisition module, a first determination module, a second determination module and a first feeding module. The first acquisition module is configured to acquire, from multiple images of a preset scene, total information of picture content in each of the multiple images. The first determination module is configured to determine, among the multiple images based on the total information of the picture content in the multiple images, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets a preset condition. The second determination module is configured to determine, in the at least two first images, incremental information of an object that changes. The first feeding module is configured to feed the incremental information to an upper-layer service to enable the upper-layer service to conduct a service related to the object based on the incremental information.

[ 0008] The embodiments of the disclosure provide a computer device, which may include a memory having stored thereon computer-executable instructions and a processor. The computer-executable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to implement the above image processing method, or implement a method for training an image processing network corresponding to the above image processing method.

[ 0009] The embodiments of the disclosure provide a computer program product, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, implement the above image processing method, or implement a method for training an image processing network corresponding to the above image processing method.

[ 0010] The embodiments of the disclosure provide an image processing method, apparatus and device, and a storage medium. The total information of picture content in each of multiple images of the preset scene is acquired from the multiple images. Firstly, among the multiple images, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets the preset condition are determined based on the total information; in this way, multiple first images that meet the preset condition can be screened out from the multiple images, and the number of images to be processed is reduced. Then, the incremental information of an object that changes is determined in the at least two first images. Finally, the incremental information is fed to the upper-layer service, so that the upper-layer service conducts a service related to the object based on the incremental information. In this way, a small amount of incremental information is uploaded to the upper-layer service, so that the data amount to be processed by the upper-layer service can be reduced, and thus the upper-layer service can focus on the service itself better, improving the service processing efficiency.

Of course, the program code may be stored in a computer storage medium. Hence, the computer device at least includes the processor and the storage medium.

[ 0025] Some embodiments of the disclosure provide an image processing method, which is as illustrated in FIG. 1, and is described below in combination with actions S101-S104 illustrated in FIG. 1.

[ 0026] At S 101, from multiple images of a preset scene, total information of picture content in each of the multiple images is acquired.

[ 0027] In some embodiments, the preset scene may be any scene, such as a game scene, a campus scene, a shopping mall scene or a restaurant scene, etc. The multiple images of the preset scene may be continuously acquired at different perspectives in the preset scene. The total information of the picture content in each of the multiple images includes information of all objects and background in the image and at least includes: a channel number of the image, the frame number of the image, a tracking identifier of each object in the image, position information of each object in the image, and a recognition result of each object in the image.

[ 0028] In a particular example, the preset scene is a game scene containing a game table. The multiple images may be acquired at any perspective in the game scene, and the objects contained in the images at least include: the game table, a player, game currency, a game currency exchange note and other game props. The total information of picture content in each image includes: the image channel of the image; the frame number of the image; and tracking identifiers, position information, recognition results, etc. of the game table, the player, the game currency, the game currency exchange note and other game props in the image. The recognition result of an object includes: the type, description information and posture of the object. With the object being game currency as an example, the recognition result of the game currency includes: the nominal value, the type, a number count, posture, etc. of the game currency.

[ 0029] At S102, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets a preset condition are determined among the multiple images based on the total information of the picture content in the multiple images.

[ 0030] In some embodiments, after an image of the preset scene is obtained, firstly, the total information of the image is determined and stored in a preset cache. Then, it is continued to acquire a second image, and store the total information of the second image in the preset cache. Until the total information corresponding to a certain number of images has been stored in the cache, whether the total information of a same object changes in these images is determined through comparison. If the total information of the same object changes in continuous images, and does not change in subsequent continuous images, these continuous images in which the total information of the same object changes are determined as the at least two first images that meet the preset condition.

[ 0031] In some possible implementations, with the preset scene being a game scene as an example, the objects in the image include a game table, game currency and other game props. If the total information of the game table, the game currency and other game props changes in some continuous images, and the total information of these objects does not change in subsequent continuous images, these continuous images in which the total information of the objects changes are regarded as the first images.

[ 0032] At S103, incremental information of an object that changes is determined in the at least two first images.

[ 0033] In some embodiments, the total information of each object is acquired from each first image; and by comparing the total information of a same object in the at least two first images, the object whose total information changes is determined. The change information of the object in the first images is taken as the incremental information of the object.

[ 0034] In a particular example, with the preset scene being a game scene and the object being game currency as an example, if the position information and the recognition result of the game currency changes in multiple first images, all change information of the game currency in the multiple first images is taken as the incremental information.

[ 0035] At S104, the incremental information is fed to an upper-layer service, to enable the upper-layer service to conduct a service related to the object based on the incremental information.

[ 0036] In some embodiments, after the incremental information is generated, the generated incremental information is uploaded to the upper-layer service. Based on a service requirement, the upper-layer service screens out the incremental information of the object that meets the service requirement from the uploaded incremental information according to the tracking identifier of each object, so as to conduct the service related to the object based on the incremental information of the object to satisfy the service requirement.

[ 0037] In some embodiments of the disclosure, the total information of picture content in each of multiple images of the preset scene is acquired from the multiple images. Firstly, among the multiple images, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets the preset condition are determined based on the total information; in this way, multiple first images that meet the preset condition can be screened out from the multiple images, and the number of images to be processed is reduced. Then, the incremental information of an object that changes is determined in the at least two first images. Finally, the incremental information is fed to the upper-layer service, so that the upper-layer service conducts a service related to the object based on the incremental information. In this way, a small amount of incremental information is uploaded to the upper-layer service, so that the data amount to be processed by the upper-layer service can be reduced, and thus the upper-layer service can focus on the service itself better, improving the service processing efficiency.

[ 0038] In some embodiments, when the acquired images are processed one by one, the total information of the objects in each image is determined. That is, the above operation S101 may be implemented by the following operations Si l l to S 114 (not shown in the drawings).

[ 0039] At Si l l, in response to obtaining one of the multiple images of the preset scene, total information of each object in the one of the images is determined.

[ 0040] In some embodiments, in the case that the system has obtained any image of the preset scene acquired by an image acquisition apparatus, the total information of each object in this image is determined by performing image detection and object recognition on this image. That is, the image channel of this image (for example, the serial number of the image acquisition apparatus corresponding to this image), the frame number of the image (that is, at which frame this image is arranged in time sequence), the tracking identifier of each object in this image, the position information of each object in this image, and the recognition results of each object in this image are determined.

[ 0041] At S 112, a next image which is continuous with the one of the multiple images in time sequence is acquired.

[ 0042] In some embodiments, after the total information of the one of the multiple images is determined, firstly the total information of each object in the one of the images is stored in a preset cache, and then it is continued to acquire a next image which is continuous with this image in time sequence. Alternatively, after the total information of the one of the multiple images is determined, it is directly continued to acquire the next image which is continuous with this image in time sequence; and in the case that the total information corresponding to a preset number of images is acquired, the total information corresponding to the preset number of images is stored in the preset cache.

[ 0043] At SI 13, total information of each object in the next image is determined to obtain the total information of the picture content in each of the multiple images.

[ 0044] In some embodiments, image detection and object recognition are performed on the next image in the same manner as Si l l to determine the total information of each object in the next image. That is, the image channel of this image, the frame number of this image, the tracking identifier of each object in this image, the position information of each object in this image and the recognition result of each object in the image are determined in the next image. In some possible implementations, in the case that the number of images of which the total information has been determined reaches a preset value, the determined total information is stored in the preset cache. Alternatively, each time the total information of an image is determined, the total information is stored in the preset cache, until the number of images corresponding to the total information stored in the preset cache reaches the preset value. The images the number of which is the preset value are compared to determine whether there are first images meeting the preset condition.

[ 0045] In some embodiments, through the above- operations Si l l to SI 13, image detection and recognition are performed on the acquired images one by one, so as to obtain the total information of each object in each image, and further obtain the total information of the picture content in each of the multiple images. In this way, by processing the acquired images one by one to determine the total information corresponding to each image, the processing efficiency in determining the total information of the images can be improved.

[ 0046] In some embodiments, the first images are screened out from the multiple images by determining that the total information of an object changes in former ones of the multiple images and remains stable in subsequent ones of the multiple images. That is, the above operation S102 may be implemented by the operations illustrated in FIG. 2. FIG. 2 illustrates another implementation flowchart of an image processing method according to embodiments of the disclosure, which is described below in combination with the operations illustrated in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2.

[ 0047] At S201, at least two continuous images in which preset information in the total information of a same object changes are determined among the multiple images.

[ 0048] In some embodiments, the preset information in the total information is partial information in the total information. For example, the total information includes: a channel number of the image to which the total information belongs, the frame number of the image, the tracking identifier of each object in the image, position information of each object in the image, and a recognition result of each object in the image. The preset information is the position information and the recognition result of an object in the total information.

[ 0049] In some possible implementations, the acquired images are processed one by one. That is, after an image is acquired, the total information corresponding to this image is determined, and the total information of each object in this image is stored in the preset cache; this is continued until the number of images corresponding to the total information stored in the preset cache meets the preset number. Whether the total information of the same object changes or not is determined by comparison based on the total information of the objects in these images. That is, the number of images corresponding to the total information stored in the preset cache is firstly determined. Then, in response to the number of images meeting the preset number, at least two continuous images in which the preset information in the total information of a same object changes are determined among the images meeting the preset number. In this way, in the case that the number of images of which the total information is determined one by one meets the preset number, operation S201 is executed, so that the comparison of the total information can be implemented in a timely manner and the image processing efficiency can be improved. For example, after the total information of five continuous images is determined, S201 is executed, so as to determine, through comparison, whether the position information and recognition result of the same object change in the five continuous images or not. If the preset information is the position information and recognition result of the object in the total information, the at least two continuous images in which at least one of the position information and the recognition result of the same object changes are determined among the multiple images. In a particular example, with the preset scene being a game scene and the same object being game currency as an example, if the position information of the game currency in the images and the recognition result of the game currency change in three continuous images among the multiple images, the three continuous images are determined. In this way, by comparing whether the position information and the recognition result of the same object in several continuous images change or not, continuous images in which the position information and the recognition results of the same object change are screened out from the multiple images, so that the data amount subsequently uploaded to the upper-layer service can be reduced. In this way, continuous images in which a change occurs are screened out from multiple images, so that the data amount subsequently uploaded to the upper-layer service can be reduced.

[ 0050] At S202, at least two second images which are continuous with the at least two continuous images in time sequence are determined.

[ 0051] In some embodiments, the next images, namely the second images, which are continuous with the continuous images in time sequence are determined among the multiple images. For example, if the position information and/or recognition result of the same object changes in five continuous images, multiple continuous second images (for example, three continuous second images) after the five continuous images are determined.

[ 0052] At S203, in response to that the preset information of the same object in the at least two second images is the same, the at least two continuous images are determined as the at least two first images.

[ 0053] In some embodiments, if the position information and recognition result of the same object remain stable in at least two second images, that is, the position information and recognition result of the same object are the same in the second images, the at least two continuous images are determined as the at least two first images. For example, if the position information and recognition result of the object are the same in three continuous images after the five continuous images, the five continuous images are determined as the first images. [ 0054] In the embodiments of the disclosure, by processing acquired images one by one and storing total information corresponding to the images in the preset cache, and determining whether the position information and/or recognition result of the same object changes by comparison based on the total information corresponding to continuous images stored in the cache, first images in which preset information of the object changes can be screened out in a timely manner accurately. Incremental information can be produced while generating total information.

[ 0055] In some embodiments, the position information and recognition result of the same object in the multiple images are compared to determine a target object that changes, so that the incremental information of the target object is determined. That is, the above-mentioned operation S103 may be implemented by the operations illustrated in FIG. 3. FIG. 3 illustrates yet another implementation flowchart of an image processing method according to embodiments of the disclosure, which is described below in combination with the actions illustrated in FIG. 3.

[ 0056] At S301, position information and a recognition result of each object in the at least two first images are acquired.

[ 0057] In some embodiments, the number of the at least two first images meets the preset number, and the total information of the at least two first images is stored in the preset cache. The position information and the recognition result of each object in each first image are acquired from the preset cache.

[ 0058] At S302, a target object is determined among all objects in the at least two first images. At least one of the position information or the recognition result of the target object changes in the at least two first images.

[ 0059] In some embodiments, an object of which at least one of the position information or the recognition result changes is determined as the target object based on the position information and the recognition results of all objects. With the preset scene being a game scene as an example, if the position of the game currency changes in the three continuous first images, the game currency is determined as the target object. Alternatively, if the recognition result of the game currency (for example, the nominal value, the number count, type or posture of the game currency) changes in the three continuous first images change, the game currency is determined as the target object. Alternatively, if both the position and recognition result of the game currency changes in the three continuous first images, the game currency is determined as the target object.

[ 0060] At S3O3, change information of the target object in the at least two first images is determined as the incremental information.

[ 0061] In some embodiments, all the target objects whose position information and/or recognition results change in the first images are determined, and at least part of the change information of these target objects in the first images is taken as the incremental information. For example, all the change information of these target objects in the first images is taken as the incremental information.

[ 0062] In the embodiments of the disclosure, the target object whose position information and recognition result change is analyzed in the first images, and all change information of the target object in the first images is taken as the incremental information, so that the richness of the acquired incremental information can be improved, without increasing the workload of service processing of the upper-layer service.

[ 0063] In some embodiments, when an image processing system is initialized, an incremental information distribution thread is created, so that the incremental information can be distributed by means of the asynchronous independent thread. That is, in the initialization stage of the system, a thread for distributing the incremental information is created in response to a received initialization instruction. In this way, after the thread is created, the incremental information, when generated, can be distributed by means of the asynchronous independent thread. That is, the above operation S104 may be implemented by operation S 141.

[ 0064] At S 141, the incremental information is fed to the upper- layer service based on the thread.

[ 0065] In this way, after the incremental information is generated, the thread may be used to immediately process the incremental information and upload the incremental information to the upper-layer service, without affecting the logical process of processing images one by one to determine the total information.

[ 0066] In some embodiments, the upper-layer service may acquire the incremental information in the following two modes.

[ 0067] Mode 1: in a blocking manner, the upper-layer service waits for a notification from the thread that the incremental information is generated. After receiving the notification, the upper-layer service acquires the incremental information from a designated memory position, and performs parsing with a specific data structure so as to obtain the incremental information. This may be implemented by the following operations.

[ 0068] Firstly, the incremental information is stored in a storage with a preset address, and the notification information is fed to the thread.

[ 0069] In some embodiments, the storage with the preset address may be a storage address set by negotiation with the upper-layer service, so that the upper-layer service can obtain the incremental information from the storage according to the preset address. The notification information is for informing that the incremental information has been generated in the thread.

[ 0070] Secondly, in response to detecting the notification information, the notification information is uploaded to the upper-layer service, to enable the upper-layer service to acquire the incremental information from the storage with the preset address.

[ 0071] In some embodiments, the notification information is uploaded to the upperlayer service to inform the upper-layer service that the incremental information has been generated in the thread, and to prompt the upper-layer service to acquire the incremental information from the storage according to the preset address. The acquired incremental information is parsed through a specific data structure, for processing the services related to the incremental information. In this way, after detecting the notification information, the upper-layer service actively acquires the incremental information from the storage according to the preset address, so that the upper-layer service can acquire the service- related incremental information in a more timely manner, thereby improving the service processing speed of the upper-layer service.

[ 0072] Mode 2: when the system is initialized, a callback function for processing the incremental information is passed in. When the incremental information is generated, the thread immediately calls the callback function actively. This may be implemented by the following operations.

[ 0073] Firstly, the incremental information is stored in the storage with the preset address, and the notification information is fed to the thread. In this way, the thread can learn the generation of the incremental information in a timely manner, so as to feed it to the upper-layer service in a timely manner.

[ 0074] Secondly, a callback function for processing the incremental information is created based on the service requirement of the upper-layer service.

[ 0075] In some embodiments, the callback function may be created in the same stage as the incremental information distribution thread. That is, the callback function is created in the system initialization stage. That is, in response to the initialization instruction of the system, a processing logic of the callback function matched with the service requirement of the upper-layer service is created based on the service requirement. In this way, the created callback function can process the called incremental information based on the processing logic, to realize the service requirement.

[ 0076] Thirdly, in response to the detected notification information, the thread is used to call the callback function, so that the upper-layer service can acquire the incremental information.

[ 0077] In some embodiments, after the incremental information is generated, the notification information is sent to the thread. When receiving the notification information, the thread actively calls the callback function to call the generated incremental information, so that the upper-layer service can obtain the incremental information.

[ 0078] In the embodiments of the disclosure, the processing logic of the callback function is created based on the customized service requirement of the upper-layer service, and after the incremental information is generated, the distribution thread actively calls the callback function, so that the callback function can process the incremental information based on the processing logic, thereby completing the service processing process of the upper-layer service. In this way, the incremental information can be immediately processed by the asynchronous incremental information distribution thread, which enables the upper-layer service to focus on service processing based on the service requirement without affecting the process of processing images one by one.

[ 0079] Hereinafter, an exemplary application of the embodiments of the disclosure in an actual application scenario will be described below. With the application scenario being a game place as an example, descriptions are made with an example of acquiring images for the game table by a camera in the game place.

[ 0080] The embodiments of the disclosure provide an image processing method. In a game table analysis system, in the process of processing images one by one to generate total information, the incremental information is generated by comparing total information of images one by one. The generated incremental information is stored in a designated memory. The service layer acquires the incremental information as required, or the callback function provided by the service layer is directly called to notify the service layer to acquire the incremental information. This may be implemented by the following operations.

[ 0081] Firstly, an incremental information distribution thread is created when the game table analysis system is initialized.

[ 0082] Secondly, the total information of an object is generated when camera photos of the game table are processed one by one.

[ 0083] In some embodiments, the total information of the object includes, but is not limited to, the channel number, frame number, tracking ID, position, and recognition result of the object (for example, the nominal value, type, the number count, and posture of the game currency, etc.). The total information is stored in the cache and compared with the total information of previous images. The comparison is made based on whether the position and the recognition result of the object change or not, and the picture content is stable in continuous images after the images in which the change occurs. If there is a change in the acquired images and continuous images after the images in which there is the change occurs are stable and contain no occlusion, the total information of the object that changes is taken as the generated incremental information. The incremental information includes which person does what to which object in which image, is stored in a specific memory position with a preset data structure, and is informed to the incremental information distribution thread.

[ 0084] Thirdly, the incremental information distribution thread processes the incremental information in two modes.

[ 0085] Mode 1: in a blocking manner, the upper-layer service waits for a notification of generated incremental information from a main thread. After receiving the notification, the upper-layer service acquires the incremental information from the designated memory position, and parses the acquired incremental information with a specific data structure.

[ 0086] Mode 2: in initialization of the game table analysis system, a callback function for processing the incremental information is passed in. When the incremental information is generated, the incremental information distribution thread immediately calls the callback function actively. Herein, the processing logic of the callback function is customized by the upper-layer service.

[ 0087] Fourthly, after acquiring the incremental information, the upper-layer service performs service logic processing based on the incremental information.

[ 0088] In the embodiments of the disclosure, the incremental information is also generated while the total information is generated, and the incremental information is distributed by means of the asynchronous independent thread. In this way, the incremental information enables the upper-layer service to better focus on service logic processing. Moreover, the asynchronous incremental information distribution thread can immediately process the incremental information without affecting the logic of processing images one by one.

[ 0089] The embodiments of the disclosure provide an image processing apparatus. FIG. 4 illustrates a structural diagram of composition of the image processing apparatus according to embodiments of the disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the image processing apparatus 400 includes a first acquisition module 401, a first determination module 402, a second determination module 403, and a first feeding module 401.

[ 0090] The first acquisition module 401 is configured to acquire, from multiple images of a preset scene, total information of picture content in each of the multiple images.

[ 0091] The first determination module 402 is configured to determine, among the multiple images based on the total information of the picture content in the multiple images, at least two first images in which a change in the picture content meets a preset condition.

[ 0092] The second determination module 403 is configured to determine, in the at least two first images, incremental information of an object that changes.

[ 0093] The first feeding module 404 is configured to feed the incremental information to an upper-layer service to enable the upper-layer service to conduct a service related to the object based on the incremental information.

[ 0094] In some embodiments, the first acquisition module 401 includes a first determination sub-module, a first acquisition sub-module, and a second determination sub-module.

[ 0095] The first determination sub-module is configured to: in response to obtaining one of the multiple images of the preset scene, determine total information of each object in the one of the multiple images.

[ 0096] The first acquisition sub-module is configured to acquire a next image which is continuous with the one of the multiple images in time sequence.

[ 0097] The second determination sub-module is configured to determine total information of each object in the next image to obtain the total information of the picture content in each of the multiple images.
