METHOD FOR EXPLAINABLE ACTIVE LEARNING, TO BE USED FOR OBJECT DETECTOR, BY USING DEEP ENCODER AND ACTIVE LEARNING DEVICE USING THE SAME

摘要

A method for explainable active learning, to be used for an object detector, by using a deep autoencoder is provided. The method includes steps of an active learning device (a) (i) inputting acquired test images into the object detector to detect objects and output bounding boxes, (ii) cropping regions, corresponding to the bounding boxes, in the test images, (iii) resizing the test images and the cropped images into a same size, and (iv) inputting the resized images into a data encoder of the deep autoencoder to output data codes, and (b) (i) confirming reference data codes corresponding to the number of the resized images less than a counter threshold by referring to a data codebook, (ii) extracting specific data codes from the data codes, (iii) selecting specific test images as rare samples, and (iv) updating the data codebook by referring to the specific data codes.
