Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without inventive effort based on the embodiments of the present invention, are within the scope of the present invention.
An implementation flowchart of the location tracking method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig. 1, and may include:
step S101: and estimating the spatial position of each node at the current time t (hereinafter referred to as time t) according to the real-time information of the multi-node object, and taking the spatial position as the observed position of each node at the time t.
The multi-node object is a tracked object, and may be any object having multiple nodes, for example, a human body, or a robot arm, where a node in the multi-node object refers to a joint point of a human skeleton or a joint point of the robot arm. The multi-node object may also be other objects having multiple nodes, such as multiple satellites in a satellite system, and so on.
the time t is the latest time when the multi-node object is tracked, namely the real-time.
Step S102: obtaining the predicted position of each node at the time t; the predicted position of each node is the spatial position of each node at the time t, which is predicted according to the observed position of each node determined at the previous time t-1.
In the application, the predicted position of each node in the multi-node object is obtained according to the observation position prediction of the node determined at the first t-1 moments. Specifically, assuming that a total of N nodes are present in the multi-node object, for convenience of description, an ith (i is 1, 2, 3, … …, N) node is represented as any one of the N nodes, and the predicted position of the ith node is a spatial position of the ith node at time t, which is predicted from an observed position of the ith node determined at time t-1 before the ith node.
The predicted position of the ith node at time t may be predicted after the observed position at the previous time is obtained at the previous time (i.e., time t-1).
Step S103: predicting the value of the target parameter at the time t according to the observed position of each node at the time t and the predicted position of each node at the time t; the target parameters at least comprise an included angle between a connecting line between nodes in the multi-node object and a reference direction.
In an actual scene, the connection relationship between nodes in some multi-node objects is fixed, for example, a human body, a mechanical arm, and the like. However, there is no connection relationship between nodes in some multi-node objects, for example, multiple satellites in a satellite system.
In the embodiment of the present application, the target parameter of the multi-node object is formed by a plurality of included angles, that is, the number of the included angles is the number of the inter-node connecting lines in the multi-node object, and the number of the inter-node connecting lines in the multi-node object is determined according to the connection relationship between the nodes in the multi-node object.
Under the condition that there is no connection relationship between nodes in the multi-node object, the relative position relationship between each node in the multi-node object is usually fixed, and it can be assumed that there is a connection line between adjacent nodes, and the connection line is a straight line, so that the connection line between nodes in the multi-node object still includes a plurality of connection lines.
The reference direction may be a certain coordinate axis or several coordinate axes in a preset coordinate system. If the preset coordinate system is a two-dimensional coordinate system, the reference direction may be a certain coordinate axis, and if the preset coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system, the reference direction may be three coordinate axes, that is, in the target parameter, an included angle between each inter-node connecting line and the reference direction includes three components, and each component is an included angle between each inter-node connecting line and one coordinate axis.
Step S104: and inputting the value of the target parameter at the time t, and inputting the correlation model of the target parameter and the spatial position of each node to obtain the spatial position of each node as the tracking position of each node at the time t.
The correlation model of the target parameters and the spatial positions of the nodes is a model for representing the correlation relationship between the target parameters and the spatial positions of the nodes in the movement process of the multi-node object. The input of the correlation model is the target parameter of the multi-node object, and the output is the spatial position of each node in the multi-node object.
In the embodiment of the present application, the observation position in step S101 is used as the initial tracking position of each node at time t, and the tracking position of each node at time t obtained in step S104 is the tracking position obtained by correcting the observation position in step S101, that is, the final tracking result of each node at time t.
According to the position tracking method provided by the embodiment of the application, when a multi-node object is tracked, the value of a target parameter (such as an included angle between a connecting line between nodes and a reference direction) is predicted based on time sequence information (such as the observation position of each node determined at the first t-1 moments), and the position of each node is determined according to the value of the target parameter, so that the interference of environmental noise (such as atmosphere and illumination) is greatly avoided, and the accuracy and the stability of multi-node object tracking are improved.
In an optional embodiment, after the observation position of each node at the time t is obtained, the spatial position of each node at the time t +1 may be predicted according to the observation position of each node determined at the previous time t-1 and the observation position of each node at the time t, and the spatial position is used as the predicted position at the time t + 1.
In an optional embodiment, an implementation flowchart of predicting a value of the target parameter at the time t according to the observed position of each node at the time t and the predicted position of each node at the time t is shown in fig. 2, and may include:
step S201: obtaining a first residual error and a second residual error; the first residual is a distance (for convenience of description, referred to as a first-type distance) between an observed position of each node at the time t and a predicted position of each node at the time t, the second residual is a distance (for convenience of description, referred to as a second-type distance) between a variable to be positioned of each node and the predicted position of each node at the time t, and the variable to be positioned of each node is represented by the correlation model.
And the value of the variable to be positioned of each node at the time t is the tracking position of each node at the time t. The method aims to determine the value of the variable to be positioned of each node at the time t.
The correlation model is used for representing the variable of the position to be located, the input of the correlation model is the target parameter, and therefore the second residual error is the model representing the correlation between the second type of distance (the distance between the tracking position and the prediction position of each node) and the target parameter.
Step S202: an objective function is obtained, the objective function being a weighted sum of the first residual and the second residual.
In an alternative embodiment, the weights of the first residual and the second residual are equal, i.e. the weights of the first residual and the second residual are both 0.5. In other embodiments, the weights of the first residual and the second residual may also be different, and may be determined empirically based on the actual scene.
Step S203: and determining the value of the target parameter when the value of the target function is minimum as the value of the target parameter at the time t.
In the embodiment of the application, the minimum value of the objective function is found, so that the optimal solution of the objective function, that is, the value of the objective parameter corresponding to the minimum value of the objective function, is obtained. And inputting the optimal solution into the model association model representing the association relation between the target parameter and the spatial position of each node in the movement process of the multi-node object, wherein the obtained spatial position of each node is the tracking position of each node at the moment t.
In an alternative embodiment, the target parameter may only include an angle between the inter-node connection line and the reference direction.
In another alternative embodiment, the target parameter may include an angle between the inter-node connection line and the reference direction, and may also include a length of the inter-node connection line. In the process of moving a multi-node object, the length of the connection line between the nodes may be fixed or variable, which is not specifically limited in the present application.
In an alternative embodiment, an implementation flowchart of the estimating the spatial position of each node according to the real-time information of the multi-node object at time t is shown in fig. 3, and may include:
step S301: an image of the multi-node object is obtained at time t. Alternatively, the image may be an RGB image without depth information, or may be an RGB image with depth information, i.e., a depth image (RGB-D).
Step S302: and processing the image obtained at the time t to obtain the spatial position of each node.
Optionally, the image may be input into a pre-trained neural network model (for convenience of description, referred to as a first neural network model), and the spatial position of each node output by the first neural network model is obtained.
Optionally, the first neural network model may be a full convolution neural network, or may be another type of neural network, for example, a bp (back propagation) neural network model, and which neural network model is specifically selected is not specifically limited in this application.
Optionally, the first neural network model may be trained as follows: and inputting the sample image into the first neural network model to obtain the spatial position of each node in the multi-node object in the sample image output by the first neural network model, and updating the parameters of the first neural network model by taking the spatial position of each node output by the first neural network model approaching to the label corresponding to the sample image as a target. And the label corresponding to the sample image represents the actual spatial position of each node in the multi-node object in the sample image.
The embodiment can be used for scenes with fixed connection relations among nodes in a multi-node object, for example, the multi-node object is a human body or a mechanical arm.
For a scene in which there is no connection relationship between nodes in a multi-node object, an implementation manner of estimating the spatial position of each node according to the real-time information of the multi-node object at time t may be as follows:
the spatial position of each node is estimated by radar. Specifically, radar waves (namely radio waves) can be sent to the area where the multi-node object is located through the radar, radar echoes reflected by the satellite are received, and the spatial position of each node in the multi-node object can be determined through analyzing the radar echoes. The method for determining the spatial position of each node in a multi-node object by analyzing radar echoes can refer to the existing scheme, and is not described in detail here.
In an alternative embodiment, an implementation flowchart of predicting the spatial position of each node at time t according to the observed positions of each node determined at t-1 previous times is shown in fig. 4, and may include:
step S401: and obtaining the angle of the included angle between the connection line between the nodes of each node at the first t-1 moment and the reference direction according to the observation position of each node determined at the first t-1 moment, and taking the angle as the observation angle.
Optionally, for each time of the first t-1 times (for convenience of description, denoted as jth time), the angle between the connection line between the nodes of each node at the jth time and the reference direction may be obtained according to the observation position of each node determined at the jth time by using the association model.
Step S402: and predicting the angle of the included angle between the connecting line between the nodes of each node at the time t and the reference direction according to the observation angles at the first time t-1, and taking the angle as a predicted angle.
Optionally, the prediction angle of each node at the time t can be obtained by using a kalman method according to the observation angle prediction at the previous time t-1. Specifically, since the observation angle at each time includes a plurality of observation angles (that is, angles of included angles between different inter-node connecting lines and the reference direction), for the angles of included angles between the same inter-node connecting line and the reference direction at different times (for convenience of description, the angle of the included angle between the same inter-node connecting line and the reference direction is denoted as a kth observation angle), a kth prediction angle at the time t can be obtained by using a kalman method according to the kth observation angle at the previous time t-1, and a specific implementation manner of obtaining the kth prediction angle at the time t by using the kalman method according to the kth observation angle at the previous time t-1 can refer to an existing prediction method, which is not described in detail herein.
Alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,
the prediction angle of each node at the time t can be obtained by predicting the observation angle at the previous time t-1 by using a pre-trained neural network model (for convenience of description, referred to as a second neural network model). Specifically, because the observation angle at each moment comprises a plurality of observation angles, for the k-th observation angle at different moments, the k-th observation angle at the previous t-1 moments can be processed to obtain a target angle value, the target angle value represents the average level of the k-th observation angle at the previous t-1 moments, and the target angle value is input into a pre-trained second neural network model to obtain the k-th predicted angle of each node at the t moment. As an example, one implementation manner of processing the k-th observation angle at the previous t-1 moments to obtain the target angle value may be to average the k-th observation angle at the previous t-1 moments to obtain the target angle value. The observation angles at different positions can simultaneously predict the prediction angle at the time t.
The second neural network model can be obtained by training through the following method: each sample of the second neural network model is a target angle value of observation angles of the same node in the multi-node object at n (n is 1, 2 and 3 … …) continuous moments, the sample is input into the second neural network model, an angle of an included angle between a connecting line of the node in the multi-node object at the n +1 th moment and a reference direction is obtained and is used as a prediction angle of the n +1 th moment, and parameters of the second neural network model are updated by taking the observation angle of the same node in the multi-node object at the n +1 th moment, which is approached by the prediction angle of the n +1 th moment, as a target.
Step S403: and obtaining the predicted position of each node at the time t according to the predicted angle of each node at the time t.
Optionally, the prediction angle of each node at the time t may be input into the association model, and the spatial position of each node at the time t is obtained as the predicted position at the time t.
In an optional embodiment, one implementation manner of determining the value of the target parameter when the value of the target function is the minimum as the value of the target parameter at the time t may be:
and (4) solving the optimal value of the target parameter for the target function by adopting a Gauss-Newton method or a gradient descent method by taking the minimum value of the target function as a target.
In the embodiment of the application, the Jacobian matrix of the correlation model can be solved in advance for the correlation model and stored, when the optimal value of the target parameter needs to be solved for the target function, the Jacobian matrix can be directly read without being solved in real time, and therefore the processing speed can be increased.
And determining the optimal value of the target parameter as the value of the target parameter at the time t.
The following describes an example of the present invention with a multi-node object as an elongated chain that rotates counterclockwise around the origin.
In this example, the node at one end of the chain is located at the origin, and the distance between the node and the node on the chain is the same (assumed to be L) and is fixed. The input of the correlation model is an angle formed by a connecting line between nodes and one coordinate axis (for convenience of description, the coordinate axis is denoted as a horizontal axis, and the coordinate axis perpendicular to the horizontal axis in the two-dimensional coordinate system is a vertical axis) in the two-dimensional coordinate system.
Assuming that a node located at the origin on the chain is node 1, and nodes are node 2, node 3 and node 4 … … in sequence according to the direction away from the origin, assuming that an included angle between a connecting line of node 2 and node 1 and a horizontal axis is θ 1, and an included angle between a connecting line of node 3 and node 2 and the horizontal axis is θ 2, then a coordinate s1 of node 1 is (0, 0), a coordinate s2 of node 2 is (L × cos (θ 1), L × sin (θ 1)), a coordinate s3 of node 3 is (L × cos (θ 1) + L × cos (θ 2), L × sin (θ 1) + L × sin (θ 2)), and so on. Through the transformation of the world coordinate system and the two-dimensional coordinate system, the coordinates of each node can be transformed into coordinates in the world coordinate system, namely, the physical space positions of the nodes. The association relationship between the coordinates of each node in the two-dimensional space and the included angle between the connection lines between the nodes is an association model between the target parameter (in this example, the included angle between the connection line between the nodes and the reference direction) and the spatial position of each node on the chain (the coordinates of each node in the two-dimensional space).
In the example, an image of the chain is acquired at the time t, and the spatial position of each node on the chain is estimated according to the image of the chain to serve as the observation position of each node at the time t;
obtaining the predicted position of each node at the time t; the predicted position of each node is the spatial position of each node at the time t, which is obtained by predicting according to the observation position of each node determined at the previous time t-1;
predicting the value of the target parameter at the time t according to the observed position of each node at the time t and the predicted position of each node at the time t; the target parameter is an included angle between a connecting line between nodes in the chain and a transverse axis;
and inputting the value of the target parameter at the time t, and inputting the correlation model of the target parameter and the spatial position of each node to obtain the spatial position of each node as the tracking position of each node at the time t.
Fig. 5 is a diagram illustrating an effect of tracking a chain based on the solution of the present application provided in the embodiment of the present application. The position tracking effect of ten nodes on the chain at four continuous time instants (frame: 20-23) is shown from top left to bottom right in the figure. The circular points are the final tracking result of tracking each node in the chain based on the scheme of the application, and the triangles are the results (marked as initial tracking results) of the spatial positions of each node on the chain estimated according to the image of the chain.
